24TH ANNUAL
F or the twenty-fourth year, the Van Norman and Friends Production Sale will be held at the Elko
County Fairgrounds in Elko, Nevada, on September 18-19, 2020. The sale offers approximately
90 horses from several long-time established ranch horse breeding programs of the northern Great
Basin with the addition of several invited guest consignors.
These breeding programs include sires by proven classic and contemporary horses, with a pre-
dominance of Colonel Freckles and Peptoboonsmal breeding. Other sires of these programs are sons
and grandsons of High Brow Cat, Hollywood Dun It, Bert, Smart Chic Olena, Smart Little Lena,
Boonlight Dancer, Playgun, and others, with equally strong maternal lines. In recent years several of
our breeders have introduced an arena-based component with the addition of stallions with French-
man Guy bloodlines.
Horses in the sale are ranch raised, and the majority of riding horses selling will have been used
as working ranch horses, many with “town” experience as well. Sellers follow the vaquero tradition
of training, with young saddle horses being ridden in the snaffle bit, and older horses being in the
hackamore, two-rein, or bridle depending on their age. Weanlings and yearlings will be broke to lead
and load. Our 2020 advertising and catalog covers reflects this approach. Anna Van Norman, daugh-
ter of Ty and Ronda Van Norman—4th generation Van Norman “cowboy”—is showing Van Norman
stallion JP Colonel Blackcatt, a vintage bred Van Norman horse on his bottom side.
In addition to watching online videos of sale horses prior to the sale, buyers can preview aged
riding horses in person beginning at 10 a.m. on Friday, September 18. The preview and auction will
be live-streamed with internet and phone bidding available. For details contact Linda Bunch: 775-
756-6508 or 775-934-7404 or email mrsbunch@rtci.net, For updates and current information visit
vannormansale.com or the Van Norman and friends Production Sale Facebook page.
In this crazy world in which we are living, every effort will be made to ensure your safety with
plenty of accommodation for social distancing, hand sanitizing, and masks should that be your choice.
We will make every effort to have a live event—but in worse case scenario—an online sale will take
place that weekend. If changes necessitate, updates and information will be posted on the website and
Facebook.

The Van Norman Quarter Horses believes this to be one of the best ranch horse bloodlines.
The Colonel Freckles bloodlines are not as available as they once were – but their outstand-
ing qualities have stood the test of time – making them more valuable than ever. It truly is
the backbone of the Van Norman Quarter Horse breeding program. JP Rolling Thunder
carries a lot of bone and muscle and is very athletic for his size. He has a super disposition
and is a true gentleman. His offspring repeatedly reflect his easy going and friendly dis-
position, combined with athletic ability and stamina. Thunder is doing a marvelous job of
perpetuating the Colonel Zippo Pine legacy for Van Norman Quarter Horses. Year after
Van Norman Quarter Horses, Inc. year, return buyers come to the sale looking for Thunder colts.

We had the misfortune of losing “Pistol” to colic on December 4, 2019. As with all unfore-

HERITAGE
The ranching heritage behind the Van Norman name runs more than three generations deep. It is a
family tradition steeped in knowledge and passion for both stock and horsemanship. Blending in the
assets of a cattle ranch with proven horse genetics and time-tested horsemanship lends for outstand-
ing results.
Ty Van Norman currently owns and operates the Van Norman Quarter Horse program. He manag-
es the breeding and training aspects with his family. Ty, like his dad and granddad, is partial to roans,
but he maintains that the basis for a good horse is a solid mindset. With that in mind, Ty picks breed-
ing stock with good dispositions and solid working conformation. He carefully considers hoof structure,
bone, height, athletic ability, speed, and more before incorporating breeding stock into the program.
The stallion roster changes from time to time, but one aspect of the Van Norman Quarter Horse program
remains constant: The commitment to raising, riding and selling outstanding horses!
The ranching heritage that Ty and Ronda Van Norman are a part of is here to stay.
They take pride in sharing good horses and horsemanship
in the same manner that it was shared with them.
riding, and selling outstanding horses!
BLOODLINES
Continually striving to breed better horses, Van Norman Quarter Horses incorporates new bloodlines from
time to time into their program. The bulk of the broodmares have time-honored working cow horse bloodlines,
with qualities that fit the credentials for good ranch and performance horses.
Colonel Freckles bloodlines have long been a favorite, sought for their dispositions and all around versatili-
ty. Sadly, senior sire JP Rolling Thunder, an exceptional ranch stallion with those bloodlines, had to be put down
this spring. He will be missed, but many of his qualities live on in the mare herd, passing down genes of good
looks, athletic ability, and a host of other desirable ranch horse qualities.
In today’s gene pool of horses, there are many to pick from that make great ranch and performance horses,
however, the chosen sires must meet a check-off list that include great dispositions, solid confirmation, and typi-
fy desirable traits for ranch work and preferably double as performance horses. More than just popular names
on their papers, the Van Norman sires must meet a lot of checkboxes.
