Proven genetics

Bloodlines that inspire greatness.

Remarkable, responsive horses begin with proven bloodlines. We’re committed to pursuing premium bloodlines built off of a long lineage of mare power, including daughters of:

Nurturing behavior

Training that earns trust.

We believe the best horses and riders have an innate trust in each other. And it all starts with training.

Nate Young, former Great Lakes Circuit champion and two-time National Circuit Rodeo qualifier has honed his training methods with more than 40 years of horseman experience while learning from some of the best professionals in a variety of horse industries. 

His proven approach to training creates a feel in horses that most horsemen dream about, teaching each horse to be soft and willing—from nose to tail.

From the moment a foal is born at Three Cross Ranch, we begin gentle training, developing a positive hand-to-mouth relationship to grow trust. From this foundation, each horse in our care builds skills that set them apart from other horses and lays the groundwork for becoming an elite equine athlete. 

No one knows your future horse better than the Y’s. That’s why we’re able to match you with the right one, through disposition and confirmation, that will work perfectly for your event or activity—whether it’s futurities and jackpots or rodeo championships.

Stop by the ranch. We’ll show you.

The Ranch

A family heritage built on horses.

From the moment you set foot on Three Cross Ranch you’ll feel our respect for the horses.

Each member of our family was born and raised in the world of professional rodeo, and our patriotism and passion for the western lifestyle runs deep.

“This country was built by horses. They’re truly man’s best friend.” –Zane

We’re building our family business on honesty, respect, and transparency. We believe you’ll find our approach to both horses and business to be refreshing and welcoming.

When you leave with one of our horses, you leave with a piece of us. We’re here to continue caring for these animals however we can. We’ll always be just a phone call away.

Our stallions come from 6666, Mel Potter, and DT Quarter Horses. We believe in mare power – our mares are just as, if not more, important than the stallions we mindfully select. We carefully choose our mares by selecting daughters of proven bloodlines. Our co-owner, Diane Young, studied animal science, equine reproduction, and physiology. She takes a special interest in our horses’ genetics and uses her knowledge to ensure well-bred horses.

We have registered American Quarter Horses that are well-minded and athletic.
