Ep 23: NARS - The Evolution of Reining Breeding Programs
David McGee and Travis Pufpaff, owners and operators of NARS, may have the keys to making breeding programs sustainable while supporting multiple sectors of the industry.
Breeders programs in the reining industry are growing in number and size. The days of building a great breeding program and selling your foal as a stand-alone, no incentives included, deal are quickly fading into memory. Today, buyers of competition-quality reining horses require them to be enrolled in, or at least eligible for, multiple breeders programs. The number of aged events that won’t let you through the gate without a paid enrollment are growing. And because the purses that result from these programs are skyrocketing, breeders programs continue to thrive. But can it last?
In this episode, the Cowboys talk with the owners and operators of the North American Reining Stakes (NARS). They’ll get honest answers about the sustainability of these programs along with a peek into the future of the NARS breeders program.
