2020 MYERS PERFORMANCE
HORSE PROSPECT SALE

August 22, 2020 – Seven Down Arenas, Spearfish, South Dakota

Story & Photography by: Larry Larson 

The stage was set back in the fall of 1987 when the ‘The Legend’ Frenchmans Guy joined the Myers Ranch as a weanling. A Leading All-Around Performance Horse Sire since 2001 and with progeny arena earnings now exceeding $14 Million, he continues to headline their ranch operation today. Sired by the Cowan Ranch stallion Sun Frost, his dam was a Loiseau broodmare named Frenchman Lady – a daughter of Laughing Boy AA by Lightning Bar AAA. Still an integral part of their breeding operation in 2020 at age 33, ‘Guy’ and several of his sons continue to produce high quality, sale topping offspring as was evident at the Myers Performance Horse Prospect Sale held on August 22nd in Spearfish, South Dakota.

Along with Frenchmans Guy and the late A Smooth Guy, 2020 brought the introduction of the ‘next generation’ of ranch sires into their market – Ima Special Kindaguy, Mr Sassy Frenchman and This Guyz A Keeper are all sons of Frenchmans Guy and attained impressive averages at the sale. Their young outcross stallion, Lucky Wonder Horse, is a buckskin son of Multiple World Champion First Down Dash SI 105 out of the mare Rosas Cantina CC by Corona Cartel SI 97 – an NFR Round Winner with over $300,000 in earnings with Lisa Lockhart and currently ranked #11 in the 2020 WPRA World Standings (unofficially as of 8/24/20). 

With the Myers since their first production sale in 2000, Auctioneer Lynn Weishaar and Announcer John E. Johnson rolled at a fast pace through the 59 cataloged horses offered in 2020. Phone bidding was strong along with a large crowd from across the nation in attendance at Seven Down Arenas east of Spearfish. 

Topping the 2020 sale at $80,000 was Hez Famous Guyz, a 2017 Gray Gelding sired by Frenchmans Guy and out of Disarray SI 89 by Dash Ta Fame SI 113. It’s a golden cross that has already produced barrel racing standouts Famous Mic Guy Ver, Guyz R A Mystery, Guys Keepin The Fame, Letz Makea Deal Guyz and Guys Famous Girl, the 2011 Nation’s #1 Futurity Horse with LTE of $120,000+. Repeat buyers, Joey, Wendy & Rylea Platts from Scottsdale, Arizona, have already owned and trained a full brother Letz Makea Deal Guyz. Rylea Platts shared, “We are super excited to see what the future will be with this guy. Our plans now are to bring him home and get him ready for his 5-Year-Old Futurity year and go from there.” 

Lowery Farms from Madison, North Carolina made the trip to Spearfish and left the sale with three outstanding prospects – Queen Of Smooth, Shez My Pick Guyz and Shez Special.  Kim, Andrew & Lani Lowery had the final bid of $79,000 on the second High-Seller Queen of Smooth – a Full Sister to Smooth N Famous, the winner of over $250,000. The 2018 Sorrel Mare by A Smooth Guy is out of the 2015 Future Fortunes Broodmare of the Year FC Peachfuzz Ta Fame, a daughter of Dash Ta Fame SI 113 and out of multiple Futurity Champion SX Frenchmans Peach by Frenchmans Guy. Kim Lowery added, “Queen Of Smooth will call Madison, NC and Lowery Farms home and will be in training with Jesse Hopper of Mayodan, NC. We are excited about her future and think she is an excellent addition to our program.”  Lowery Farms was the Volume Buyer in 2020 as they also had the bid of $33,000 on Shez My Pick Guyz, a 2015 Palomino Mare sired by Frenchmans Guy out of Tag Along Nickie by Dr Nick Bar and Shez Special, a 2017 Sorrel Mare by Ima Special Kindaguy out of Patience N Speed by World Speed SI 83. She left the ring at $28,000.  

A sale sponsor this year was Classic Equine represented at the sale by Trisha Price. They presented a saddle pad and horse sheet to Hez Famous Guyz (Platts Family, Scottsdale, Arizona) for the High-Selling Gelding and to Queen Of Smooth (Lowery Farms, Madison, North Carolina) for the High-Selling Mare.  

Bill & Deb Myers concluded by saying, “We are honored by the trust and confidence you have in our program. Our horses are a passion for us and have been all of our lives. It is our favorite day of the year and we are grateful you all shared it with us.”
