Our Story
David and Gina McGee founded McGee Farms Performance Horses in 2011 after their passion for the reining horse industry. The McGee's purchased their first reining horse in 2008 and David began showing the next year. It did not take long before they were "hooked" by the reining bug.
David made his debut "Rookie of the Year" run in 2010 and qualified all 3 of his Rookie horses (Chics Need Money, Peppy Badger Chick and Ridin On Spinners) to compete in the Southeastern Affiliate Finals. 2 of the 3 horses (Chics Need Money and Peppy Badger Chick) qualified to go on to Oklahoma for the National Rookie of the Year. In 2011, David qualified his 8 year old Shining Spark mare, Shine On Retsina, to compete in the Southeastern Affiliate Finals and placed 3rd to be eligible to go on to Nationals. After 2 outstanding runs, David and Sparkles ended up with a 4th place Non-Pro and 5th place Intermediate and Limited Non-Pro National runs.
Gina made her debut "Rookie of the Year" run in 2011 and qualified both of her Rookie horses (Chics N Salsa and Ridin On Spinners) to compete in the Southeastern Affiliate Finals. Her 4 year old mare, Chics N Salsa, qualified to go on to Oklahoma for the National Rookie of the Year and placed 19th in the Nation.
In 2010, the McGee's began construction of a premier reining facility that would include a 300'x150' covered riding arena with special footing for reiners and an adjacent 150'x75' climate controlled 18 stall show barn. The riding arena was completed by the spring of 2011 and the barn was completed by the Spring of 2012.
Our focus is to breed or obtain the best horses reining industry has to offer in order to be competitive at the top levels. So far we have accomplished those goals with David currently sitting 10th in the Nation in the 2019 Non-Pro Rankings!!!
We are excited for the future of McGee Farms Performance Horses and look forward to many years of success!!! See ya in the show pen!
