Double Joe Hancock

Roan horses became our main focus in 1982 when my father-in-law who had worked on a lot of ranches as cowboy, and rode Hancock horses. He saw a red roan mare named Outlawslady listed in sale catalog in Clovis, New Mexico. She was a daughter of Blue Valentine bred to horse called War Concho which would make her foal a double bred Hancock. He flew to New Mexico, and bought her as she came off the trailer. He had a friend there with a truck and trailer to ship her back to Oklahoma and he flew back. It took three days to get her home we unloaded her 6 pm on Sunday night we turned her out in pasture and checked on her on Monday morning and she had a blue roan horse colt. We named him Double Joe Hancock. From day one he was a people horse who never saw person he didn’t like. Double Joe Hancock is the foundation for our breeding program of roan horses.
