Barrel Addict Ranch is the result of an evolution from the competitive world to a desire to provide world class prospects for serious barrel racing competitors. We are a barrel horse breeding facility specializing in breeding and selling top-quality Quarter Horses whose objective is to win barrel futurities then continue on at any level the owner/rider wishes to compete. We stress soundness of mind and limb in an athletic, trainable, easy to handle animal that will provide a lifetime of companionship and winning for their owners.
My name is Peggy Olfert. I started as a kid running my pony in Western Horseman of Oregon games shows. What great fun!! I highly recommend raising your kids in this family environment. What a great way to learn to compete, be good sports and be part of a team for the greater good.
My first horse was My Honeycomb APHA palomino, tobiano mare. A 5A games horse, she was very good in Poles, Figure 8 and Keyhole. The Team Polebending Record team she and I were part of, still hold that record as it was retired when WHO changed the course measurements. My Honeycomb won her superior in barrels and poles in APHA shows and also had many points won in PtHA shows.
I won my first barrel futurity (CBRC in Canby, Oregon) in 1976 with my AQHA buckskin mare Taylors Swift Win. I also showed that mare in AQHA shows to earn her ROM in barrels and she was 5A in games events.
Through the years I had many nice horses; trained and ridden by myself to various levels of accomplishment. Rebit Oh "Muscles" was a point earner in AQHA shows and was A in several games events. He won a go of the O-Mok-See Futurity in 1985. He was my mount for the whole O-Mok-See event, carrying me to the Reserve High Point for my age division nearly equalling the record for Speed Barrels (within .02). Muscles was an average placer in the WBRA Futurity in the same year. Blurrbyem "Bud" was a futurity money winner and open money winner, who also was run and won in Figure 8 and Poles. Tidy Toby was futurity average placer in the VGBRA Futurity in 1988 and qualified for the finals of the BFA World Championship Futurity in the same year. After I sold him he won several derbies for his new owner in 1989. Much Too Fine was toward the end of my riding career. I patterned her on games events and ran her some but not nearly to the level of success she is now at with her owner Alyssa Kennell.
In addition to my years running games events and barrels, I spent several years grooming, galloping, ponying, training and owning racehorses. I held my trainers license and raced my own horses for a few years at Portland Meadows and the bush tracks around the northwest part time from ~1976 to ~1989.
In 1981 a small sorrel filly was born...little did I know at the time, she was the best of them all. I was there to help her into the world as my best friend owned the sire Ima Reb and the dam Bit O Destiny. I bought her full brother "Muscles" as a yearling in 1981. I enjoyed him so much I bought Lady in 1982. I broke and trained her to go to the track. She ran SI 94 with three race wins. As a 5 year old barrel futurity horse she had two futurity average wins (Sweet Home and VGBRA) with numerous go round wins and average placings in the Hermiston Futurity, Idaho Futurity, WBRA Futurity, Lewiston Futurity, Last Chance Futurity and some that I don't remember and are defunct now. The following year I ran her at four barrel derbies. She won three; VGBRA, Winlock and Sweet Home. The next eight years were filled with many wins and placings in the NPRA, PCRA, WRA, ICA & PRCA Rodeos (WPRA races). She was capable of winning and placing at any level of competition in the days before "D" races existed. I retired her with no major injuries at age 13 after accumulating $40K of lifetime earnings in racing and barrel racing competition.
After we retired, I started breeding Lady to the best sires I could find and afford. The pictures on the bottom of this page are Lady and her four foals. Two by Judge Cash, one by TB Much Fine Gold and one by Frenchmans Guy. I kept the daughters of Frenchmans Guy and Judge Cash for broodmares. They can be found on the "mares page". More pictures of Lady. Lady passed on May 9th 2010. She was loved. She had her own pasture and stall to live out her years where I pet and fed her apples.
Barrel Addict Ranch is located on 19 acres in the lush farming community of Scio, Oregon. The stalls have 24/7 pasture access for every horse or mare/foal pair.
