TWOMBLY PERFORMANCE HORSE SALE was held April 20, 2008 at the Torrington Wyoming Fairgrounds. This was their 12th annual spring sale. Despite downward economic conditions the sale had its highest overall average ever. The customers buy with confidence making the Twombly sale one of the most reputable gelding sales today. They offer color, conformation, disposition and a great ride. The Twombly’s make their living riding horses and their geldings are trained at their ranch by their family. They tell their clients exactly what the horses are and how they ride. Many of the horses were used for team roping, trail riding and ranch riding. A family from Utah, Nick Jessen and Stephanie Christensen, were volume buyers purchasing 5 Twombly geldings. Listed below are a few of the top sellers.
