Skips Morning Star
Skips Morning Star (Star) was a 1982 bay tobiano mare by Skippers Dude by the Skipper W grandson, Skip Hi. Star was out of Osage Folly (a buckskin AQHA) by Little Bug Tyree, a buckskin AQHA son of AQHA Champion, Honor Roll Performance Horse and Superior Halter Horse, Harlan’s Tyree. Star was used for lessons, trail riding, gymkhana, walk-trot pleasure and team penning. She also was an excellent broodmare that consistently produced athletic foals with level heads and the desire to please. She is greatly missed by our family and friends but her legacy lives on in her babies and grandbabies. Her 1999 APHA/PtHA buckskin tobiano, Dottie is in our broodmare band. Check her out on our mares page.
