Hey Jim,

I am finally getting around to Thank you for my second Buck foal. She is a full sister to my last year stud. She arrived in excellent condition. I had surgery two weeks after her arrival just now getting to know her. Like her brother she can gait and has a loving personality. The move did not slow her growth. She may be stouter built than her brother, which will make her a good brood mare and trail horse.

Thanks for another good horse. She is a doll. Will be an eye catcher.

It is truly a pleasure to work with Mr. Jim Holmes and his horses!

I have never been around young horses that have been as easy to "start" than his horses have been, being "naturally gaited", intelligent horses. In my 20+ years of riding horses for other people, this is the first time I have ever wanted to own one of those horses. I am proud to have one of the best mares I have ever ridden.....Madison's Mighty Coco.

I look forward to continue working with such fine horses. Thanks Mr. Jim!!! Bobby Carter Somerville, Tn

I can't say enough great things about Mr. Jim Holmes and his horses!!  Mr. Jim has renewed my faith in horse-breeders, after having several bad experiences. He has been a pleasure to do business with, always open, honest, and fair. Always willing to do what it takes to make his clients happy! My only complaint is that I didn't meet him 6 years ago!!

I currently have two of his fine colts, one gelding and one filly. Both are already being ridden bareback (as 2 year olds) by my 12 yo daughter!!!

WOW! I can say that I would NEVER purchase another horse from anyone other than Mr. Jim Holmes!

THANKS!

We recently purchased an amazing young mare, Bucks Gypsy Rose. She has been a ton of fun to work with on the trail.  Since I first got on her back, total trust.  She is willing and fast to learn, very patient. Once she figures out what your asking her to do, you never have to ask again.  She has the sweetest disposition and open mind I have ever come across.  My trainer and I are having so much fun working w/her.  We have a very populated area, but nothing seems to faze her.  She loves to be out front to show off her beauty and gait, which hands down, is 2nd to none.    She can go forever.  I look forward to the many years we'll have together. It's just going to get better.  Icing on the cake, she is the most beautiful color. When the sun reflects off her back, it is luminescent gold that is awesome.  I was a little worried purchasing a horse over the internet but she turned out to be as easy you promised.  She arrived at our front door in wonderful condition and ready to be w/her new family.  Thank you all for you help and being so honest w/us.  It was obvious she had been well trained and trained w/a kind hand.  She loves her people.   This has been stress free. We love her!

I live on 320 acres in the middle of Alberta, Canada. Traveling to look at prospects wasn't an option. I had full confidence in purchasing this weanling colt. Jim's website has all the information about his horses making it easy to find what I was looking for in a future herd sire.

My new boy arrived at my place after 4 days on the road Sept. 15th 2010. He walked off the trailer and was a beautiful sight. He is everything I had hoped for and more. This boy has a huge stride and a fast natural running walk. He just floated all over his paddock as he checked out his new surroundings. I have slowly building my Walker herd for the past 4 years and never seen anything quite as beautiful as his movement. I am so proud to be his new owner and will spend many years showing him off. Not only does he have an outstanding pedigree, but his gait is to die for and to top it all off he is a beautiful buckskin color making him the whole perfect package.

Jim Holmes is a man worth dealing with. He knows his horses and he cares about them. I would recommend to anyone looking for a quality Tennessee Walking horse to have a look at Jim's herd. His foals are outstanding. A huge thank you goes to Jim for making this a wonderful experience for me. I have no doubts I made the right choice.

We are located in Canada, 1000 miles from Jim's farm. We cannot just go and visit to see his stock, other than what we see on his website. There is more to purchasing a horse than looking at pictures. With Jim, we found we could rely on his word and description of a particular horse to be accurate. The paper work needed to ship horses abroad needs to be complete and precise. In all cases, with the horses we have purchased from Jim, crossing the border was a breeze. Yes! Jim is definitely an asset to our industry and we are hopeful our association is long and fruitful.
