Thank you An Equine Production for this breakdown of some of the rules that may bring up questions.
We are pleased to present our yearly FAQ guide for AQHA rules. We encourage you to snap this as a photo on your phone or tablet for quick reference. At no point should this replace the full rulebook. But we often pull this up for a quick guide. Even our office, looks up rules at each show to be able to accurately guide our exhibitors.
From BOXO Quarter Horses at Willow Creek Ranch “It takes a village.
In 2023 we set out for a goal…to win the top money earning AQHA ranching heritage breeder.
Big feat for 3 riders. Especially when you compete against some of the biggest and best ranches in the country during competitions.
Well, we did it. In 2023, we were the top money earning ranching heritage AQHA breeder!
On Sunday we were honored to receive the award at the AQHA banquet in Las Vegas.
It takes a village. From the riders to the ones holding the fort down at home.
Thank you to the American Quarter Horse Association.
We are looking forward to 2024!”
From The Pitzer Ranch “ We would like to express our gratitude to those who put on a phenomenal AQHA Breeders Awards banquet last night at the 2024 AQHA Convention in Las Vegas!
We were honored to receive an award for over 50 years of breeding the American Quarter Horse, producing over 6,500 foals in those years here at the ranch.
It was a privilege to be in the company of so many other great ranches & breeders and see everyone’s behind the scenes hard work receiving recognition.
So many inspiring stories, amazing people and connections!
We are grateful for the opportunity to continue breeding and producing top quality foals here at the ranch progressing the American Quarter Horse breed.”
