Coal Creek Black Oak was our first Morgan Stallion, purchased at the age of 9. Black Oak was chosen for his undeniable morgan type, gentle spirit, boldness and durability. He was discovered on an Iowa farm (bred by Gary Wallace) running with a herd of mares and foals, I am sure he had whethered many a storm without shelter and many a summer without flyspray! The fact that we could walk up to him, pet him, put our hand on his cheek and move him, halter him and lead him away from his herd and all without a sound or any agressive behavior what so ever was incredible and a true tell all of his character. I liked that he had lived with the herd and had been "educated" by the mares! We brought him home, let him settle in and then the training began! Lots of ground work and the basic fundamentals for reining have been accomplished. His natural boldness has worked in our favor when competing in Cowboy Extreme events, he is not afraid and behaved well in a public setting. Black Oak is also a pleasure to take on a trail ride. He has also learned how to hand breed and is a gentleman to the mares. Breeding your mare to Black Oak provides and opportunity to add durability, soundness and substance while still retaining outstanding breed type, style and beauty. We are expecting two foals by Coal Creek Black Oak in 2011. Consider Black Oak for your mare! Feel free to contact us regarding breeding information.
