Originating from Haythorn Land & Cattle Co., 2009 AQHA stallion Four Chex Bay, known as “Doobie,” stands at 15.1 hands and weighs a solid 1,250 pounds. With his impressive stature, Doobie is not just a sight to behold but also a sire of winners. A full brother to Four Bonnie Bay—a winner in numerous AQHA events, including heading, heeling, and calf roping—he brings a legacy of excellence to the breeding world.

Doobie’s foals, the oldest born in 2016, are already making a mark in roping arenas across Texas and Arizona, inheriting his desirable traits: big bone, striking color, luxurious mane and tail and significant speed. While Doobie himself excels as a head horse, he produces versatile progeny suitable for both heading and heeling, with several being capable switchenders.

“He passes everything down—from his looks to his talent,” Danny Massingill said. “Doobie is as quiet and calm as they come, and all of his babies are that way. They are real easy to start and super easygoing, reflecting his calm disposition and athletic ability, making them suitable for a range of riders, from beginners to advanced ropers.”
