Two Eyed Jack is the all-time leading sire of AQHA champions.
Jack of all Trades
Incidentally, a Roan Hancock daughter was bred to the appendix stallion Grey Badger III to produce the dam of Two Eyed Jack.

Some say horses of the mellow, laid-back “Jack” line can be hard-headed, maybe even opinionated. Team roper Jim Brinkman of Nebraska’s Pitzer Ranch says they’re brave.

“They don’t spook much,” he said. “You know, if you want to jump the river, they’re okay to try.”

He figures the stereotype of stubbornness may have started when some horses and riders didn’t share the same goal. A smart horse that’s unclear what its rider wants may simply figure out a better way to do it.
As a show horse, Two Eyed Jack won the most points of any rope horse in the nation. ProRodeo Hall of Fame steer roper Guy Allen won 18 world titles mostly aboard Jack Bart Tender and Two D Ole Man, each named AQHA/PRCA Horses of the Year. “Bullet” was by a Two Eyed Jack grandson and “Jeremiah” was an own grandson of Two Eyed Jack.

They’re apt enough to think on their own that some endearing “Jacks” tend, when bored, to occupy themselves with untying gates or rubbing off halters, albeit politely. Collectively, Brinkman says they’re gentle and have a high pain tolerance. If one gets tired but you want to back in the box and run another steer, the horse is all right with that. They’re low-maintenance.

NFR average champion Luke Brown’s “Fast Time” is out of a great-grandson of Two Eyed Jack. On Ima Two Eyed Con (“Cody”), Chad Masters won the world in 2007, made several NFRs, won three USTRC Opens and the Wildfire in 2013. Masters called Cody the best he’s ever ridden, and he bought several brothers, including one he rode at another NFR.

“Chad’s old bay horse, even recently, I watched him run 15 on him one afternoon,” Brinkman said. “That horse is just a warrior. And over the course of 60 years, that’s been pretty consistent. Once you get these horses into the pattern, they’re going to do it all their life. If they’re a little sore or things get tough, they don’t worry about it; they just go on.”

Busy day here, got the next 3 weanlings that are leaving branded, vaccinated and dewormed, plus branded 3 older mares that were up by the barn. I am so dang excited to see how these brands turn out, I hope I am not disappointed since all of these foals are going out of state so I cant just run over and rebrand them if they dont turn out. Scotty, pictured here, is still out on pasture with momma since he was born in June. He still has a ways to go until he is ready to wean. But look how cool he is turning out! He is almost white right now! He will darken up next spring when he sheds out, seems like the Red Dun Roans always go white this first year then color up a bit more as yearlings. Heck you cant even see his belly spot anymore he is so white. Scotty will be heading to Oregon in November with Sami Alley as a stallion prospect, joining a half brother by the same sire, Ashwoods Classic Ice. His mother is a daughter of Smooth Cool N Frosty. I have had 3 full siblings to Scotty and they are all outstanding! His mother is bred to Nuggets N Champagne this time just for a fun switch. Im sure it will be a great one too!
