All my life I dreamed of this horse!! Blue roan, with 2 blue eyes, outlined in chrome and lots and lots of hair. Hustler was a early Christmas present from my wife this past year. I was in love from the first moment I saw him!! I spent thousands of hours with this boy, not just riding but bonding and just becoming friends. He is truly a puppy dog in a horse body! I have trail ridden him all over. Several camping trips and lots of wet saddle pads later, here we are! I guess it was just bad timing because if we didn’t have so many young colts to start this year that we had raised from babies, no amount of money would buy this unicorn.
Hustler is a GORGEOUS coming 4 year old Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse gelding that stands 15.1hh. PICTURES DO NOT DO THIS HORSE JUSTICE!! Like I said earlier, Hustler is a big pet. He is a very friendly, "in your pocket" type of horse and would do anything for a treat. He is very easy to catch, handles quietly, and is easy to clip, bathe and groom. Hustler stands tied quietly and you can tie him to something, cross tie him, tie him on a picket line and he is A-OK. He also respects an electric fence and knows what it is. Hustler is easy to saddle and bridle and stands quietly to mount. Hustler does NOT ride like a young horse! If I didn’t know better I would think he was 12 by the way he rides. He is very soft and forgiving, and loves to just walk along but can move on out when asked. You can throw your hands around, move around, bump him and he will stay steady eddy! He is pretty much spook free, no jumping, bolting or spinning. Honestly I can’t tell you when the last time I even had him just look at something. Hustler is an absolute Cadillac! If you want the prettiest and smoothest horse on the ride, Hustler is 100% what you are looking for!! He has a smooth running walk, and can move on out racking up to 10-12 mph. He also has a very smooth rocking chair type of canter. Hustler will ride anywhere in a group and is fine going out with or without company. You just point him and he will go wherever you ask.
We also taught Hustler some tricks! He will sit and lay down. He does like sitting better than laying down, but he will willingly do both. To get him to sit, just back him up to almost anything that’s stable and he will sit right down. Hustler has a good mouth, not too soft and not too hard, like baby bears porridge, it's just right! He will stop and back with the slightest touch. He also rides with a halter or just a string around his neck. Like I said, very easy and forgiving! Hustler is an outstanding trail horse. He is very sure footed and will go up, down, over or through anything you ask him to! You drop over a hill and it’s STEEP with loose rocks, just go ahead and ask him to go on down and he will get you to the bottom safely. Just give him his head and let him do his job! He will cross all types of water, steps over downed trees and will go anywhere you ask him to. Hustler has been around so much traffic you could ride him right through Times Square in NYC and he wouldn’t care! He is a great around livestock and wildlife as well. I couldn’t tell you how many deer and turkeys we have surprised while out on the trails!! I’ve seen older horses lose their minds and take off but Hustler just looks at them like. "REALLY"!!? I can't emphasize enough that if you want one of the COOLEST horses in the world, THIS is your opportunity to own a living breathing UNICORN!! LET MY LOSS BE YOUR GAIN!!
