Shotgun is the son of Canada's late Premier Standing Stallion, Coin's Double Play, who was tragically killed at age 10.  Very few of Double Play's stud foals were kept as stallions.  Through his dam, Shotgun has five lines to Silvertip Rickey, a Northwest foundation stallion bred for stamina and smooth gait.  Also to Buck LaMarr, a stallion bred for the ranch country by Tom Moss.  His dam's line goes to Hey Joe, a Kaiser family stallion known for his stamina and smooth gait.  Shotgun has the Merry Go Boy bloodlines from his dam through Shadow's Brantley, a stallion Pearl Tompkins had at stud for many years.  Then his line goes to Merry Boy through Fritzsches Merry Boy, a stallion who's history as a sire begins at Pearl Tompkins' ranch and ends at the Cheff Ranch where he was a sire of many Walkers used in the wilderness for riding and packing.  Shotgun also have five lines in his pedigree to Albert Dements' most famous stallion, LAST CHANCE.  Without a doubt one of the old time natural greats in the Tennessee Walking Horse history.

Shotgun is a fabulous stallion, a gentleman breeder to both the mares and his handler.  As of age six, Shotgun has put fourteen lovely correct and colorful foals on the ground.

With his Aa gene, the gene that produces Bay, he is able to produce both Bay and Buckskin foals with the appropriately colored mares.  I have owned Shotgun since he was five months old and he has always been a joy to work with and own. Riding his smooth, even, four-beat running walk is sheer heaven.  Seeing it passed onto his foals is as good as it gets for a breeder.  If you are looking for a sport horse, Shotgun's resting heart rate is 32 bpm and his recoveries are very quick.  Shotgun is agile, athletic and fast.  He has the stamina to go the distance -- and he carries me up these Oregon mountains like the trooper he is.  He has an inherent work ethic from his Montana and Canadian ancestors that is tried and true.
