Marsha Johnson specializes in matching riders with well trained, gentle horses. Marsha helps horse lovers find the right horse for their interests and skills. She puts her horses through despooking and trail obstacles prior to their sale. Often good matches are determined at Cowgirl Weekends and One-Day Trail Riding trips, but visit Marsha whenever you can schedule time at Flying M Ranch.
We offer high quality and well broke geldings and we spend the time to match your personality and skills to a horse that works for you.

“Marsha matched me with “Smoke”, a 19-year-old Quarter Horse gelding she owned and trained between his 4th and 12th years. I did not want an OLD or GREY horse, but fortunately I set aside my prejudices, heeded her advice, and took a lesson on him. I was astounded by his capabilities. I experienced a major paradigm shift about old, grey horses. I realized “Smoke” (and Marsha’s mentoring) could teach me a lot. “Smoke” had the smarts of a seasoned horse and the athleticism of a five-year-old. He knew all the speed and pleasure events, and he was good at roping and trail. I offered a deposit on him the evening of that lesson. No regrets. Wow! What a ride!” B.N.
“Marsha introduced me to “Gunsmoke”, a lanky 2.5-year-old buckskin tobiano gelding, when my horse “Smoke” was recovering from an injury. She let me ride “Gunsmoke” on the March 2008 Flying M Ranch trail ride trip to Caprock Canyon in the Panhandle. To my astonishment, “Gunsmoke” was a brave, confident, inquisitive, sturdy little horse. He had “trail savvy” beyond his years. He had stamina in spades! His single-foot walk left others in the dust! Upon return from the trip, I was still horseless. Fortunately, Marsha let me continue to ride “Gunsmoke” at the Flying M Ranch. In the weeks that followed, I came to appreciate that this young horse was a dynamo! I was smitten by his intelligence, heart, and “ever-ready-rabbit” energy. “Gunsmoke” provided me an opportunity to learn (from Marsha) how to develop a young horse. With that realization, I bought him. I look forward to many years with “Gunsmoke”. His “Color Me Smart” cutting horse bloodlines cannot be ignored. With Marsha’s help, “Gunsmoke” and I will perfect our basic skills, enjoy trails, and prepare for low-key versatility and ranch cutting competitions. “Gunsmoke” has come a long way in less than a year. He is starting to blossom. “Color Me Gun” (his registered name) is a beautiful, amazing horse, and thanks to Marsha, I am blessed to share time with him.” B.N.
