Harrell-Mackenzie 13th Annual Production Sale Results

Harrell-Mackenzie Quarter Horses featured powerful bloodlines, outstanding quality and a reputation training program for their 2011 sale.  Ranchers, cattlemen, horsemen and arena competitors who make their living in the saddle, the Harrell and Mackenzie families breed versatile, all-around performance horses that excel on the ranch and in the arena.

Bob and Becky Harrell and Wannie and Beth Mackenzie, all headquartered out of Baker City, Ore., teamed up to present their 13th annual sale in conjunction with the Harrell Hereford Ranch bull sale.  Their breeding programs were showcased with a standout offering of 2009 coming two-yr.-old started ranch and arena prospects plus select broodmares and 2010 yearling fillies.  Always a highlight of the region's equine marketing season, the event drew horsemen from seven states across the country.  The auction was preceded the previous day by a preview at the Mackenzie Ranch Arena that showed the prospects in riding and reining routines and cattle work.

Bands of first class, high quality broodmares featuring Pitzer Ranch (Neb.) Two Eyed Jack, Weiscamp (Colo.) Skipper W and Cowan Bros. (S. Dak.) Sun Frost and Driftwood bloodlines are the programs' foundations.  One of the Northwest's leading stallion batteries headlines Payin Doc, sired by World's Greatest Horseman Champion Paid By Chic; Billy Red Baron, OQHA Reserve All-Around Performance Stallion and son of AQHA Super Horse Mr Baron Red; RR Frenchmans Bully, sired by leading barrel horse sire Frenchmans Guy; and Star Like Freckles, an NCHA money-earning son of Grays Starlight ($11.4 million NCHA, NRHA, NRCHA progeny earnings).

An outstanding sale saw ranchers, trainers and arena competitors pay excellent prices for the bloodlines, quality, ranch training and integrity that are trademarks of the Harrell and Mackenzie programs.  Striving to produce top-of-the-line, all-around performance horses, these breeders hosted another successful event that continues to set a standard in the Northwest region of the country.
