Pete Wolfe and wife, Cheri own and operate the Wolfe Ranch at Sulphur, Oklahoma. It is located 4 ½ miles North of Sulphur on US Hwy 177.

The Wolfe family has been there for 26 years. They breed the same bloodlines and kind of horses that Cheri started breeding in 1969 - horses that can cut a cow, catch a fast one in open pasture, ride smooth on a trail ride, go to a horseshow and be competitive in 10 or 12 events and be really pretty doing it. They have to have good bone and feet and be able to stay sound well into their twenties. The Wolfe Ranch has been part of the AQHA Breeders Referral Program since it's inception.

We train and use our horses here on the ranch and use them doing ‘day work’ on some of the biggest ranches (25,000 + acres) in this region. We keep a small but select group of broodmares. Many of them were top roping or ranch horses before we bred them. Several of them have AQHA points and earnings or are producers. All of them are well bred and close to the best ‘FOUNDATION’ lines. They are heavy, stout, solid mares with good bone, big hips, good heads, excellent withers and backs, and bred-in ‘COW’. We have really worked to find top cow-bred mares with exceptional SIZE, BONE, FEET, & SUBSTANCE. " Not all cutting-breds are 13.2 hand ponies - we have the big ones! Check out the grandson of Doc's Prescription pictured at the right and in the 'congratulations ' link. We sold him 4 years ago to John Row. He has been top ten at the World, has qualified 5 years in a row in 7 events (3 open and 4 amateur) and carried John's son, Mike to Justin Rookie of the Year in 2002. Blue Boy was named 2003 World Champion Amateur Heeling horse. In December, 2004 he was again named 2004 WORLD CHAMPION Amateur Heeling horse for the 2nd year in a row. He also placed 3rd in the 2004 World in Amateur Heading. He was World Champion again in 2006. CONGRATULATIONS -- GREAT JOB!!! He now has 3 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS and 7 additional TOP TENS!! He has earned over 1200 AQHA Points in 7 events!!! He was recently featured in 'Americas Horse', The AQHA magazine sent out to members. He has now been named a World Champion Heeling horse 3 times.

Check out the 'congratulations' page. A horse trained and sold has also placed 3rd in the Open Team Penning at the 2004 'World' Show. The grullo (turning gray) Drifter colt on the right has multiple grand championships in Europe and won the AQHA High Point stallion award in the UK in 2003 and again in 2004.

Cheri originally came from Colorado 29 years ago bringing several horses. One of those horses was Bay Elegance, a daughter of Cheri’s original mare, Miss Keck, the producer of 7 AQHA horses with race and show records including several state champions in both Colorado and Oklahoma. In 2001 at age 27, Bay Elegance produced her last foal, a filly by GUNS OF MARIETTA. She is also the dam of Classical Silver (recently sold to Mexico) and has sons standing at stud in 4 states. The sire of Bay Elegance was Cheri's old foundation stallion, AQHA CHAMPION, DOTY’S SOCKS JR. Besides becoming an AQHA Champion in May of his 3-year-old year, He was a superior halter horse, a superior pleasure horse, and had a total of 239 AQHA points in 10 events! He was an NCHA cutting champion and had an NCHA Certificate of Ability. He sired AQHA champions, paint champions, cutting champions and numerous ROMs, and producers. "He was the kind of ALL AROUND horse we still strive to produce today!"

Pete had a heart attack in 2000, a brain hemorrhage in 2001 and had quadruple by-pass open heart surgery in September of 2007. Since we can no longer ride and handle as many horses ourselves, we are offering most of our broodmares and fillies for sale. We have just bred many outstanding young mares and are offering ALL of them at very reasonable prices. Thanks to you, this web site has been so popular and successful.

Each year we sell several horses over the phone or internet 'sight unseen' to people we have never met. We try to be absolutely up front about every little detail of each horse. Each year, about half of the horses we sell like this are to people that we have sold horses to before. We can offer many references. We are also offering several top NCHA caliber cutting prospects including granddaughters of Doc O'Lena and High Brow Cat.

Since we can no longer show competitively ourselves, we are now taking out trail riders for 1/2 and all day trail rides in the Arbuckle Mountains of southern Oklahoma and are taking out trail riders in Turner Falls Park south of Davis.. We use our ranch geldings, broodmares and our young fillies for our trail riding dude string. We think that testifies as to the disposition of our brood mares. We don't breed them until we have ridden and used them. We think everyone should. Check out our 'Arbuckle Trail Ride' page and 'Trail horses for sale' page and our new 'Trail Horse Boarding'.

Every year we sell several horses to Europe and the UK and just recently sold 3 horses to Mexico. We can arrange quarantine and all shipment details for buyers and deliver horses to the quarantine station free of charge and can do all of it on a credit card. Most of these horses are sold 'sight unseen' and many go to repeat buyers.

Flash!!! We have just decided that we have no choice but to sell all of our mares. This includes many mares that we have never offered. Some are 3rd and 4th generation of our breeding. It breaks our hearts, but our health has failed too much to keep doing this right, so we have to let go of mares we would never price -- no matter how many times some people tried to buy them in the past. Here is a link to a new page I am in the process of writing that will have these one-of-a-kind mares listed on it. I do not have photos of most of them as we never intended to sell any of them. Special Mare Dispersal We would make a really attractive deal to someone wanting to buy a group of them and keep some of these great producers together. Keep an eye on this page as I will keep adding to it until they are all listed.
