SM COUNTRY SNOWMAN LAID TO REST
Sparky Mullins’ world champion and champion sire SM Country Snowman, affectionately known as “The Snowman,” was laid to rest on Monday, August 25, 2025, at his home on Rafter SM Ranch.

Mullins recounted the heartbreaking moment. “Monday morning about 10 a.m. I noticed some of my mares staring toward the barn. When I went out, I found SM Country Snowman lying down, obviously hurt. He got up when he saw me, but it was clear something was seriously wrong. After checking him over, I discovered he had broken his shoulder. I buried him beside his sire, Country Quick Dash.”

Bred by Ronald Yates and James Skimbo, SM Country Snowman was purchased by Mullins within days of his birth. “I first saw Snowman as an eight-day-old foal, and I liked him so much that, since it was my wife’s birthday, I made the breeder an offer on the spot. I bought him for her as a birthday present. I took him and his mother home, weaned him at the ranch, and then sent his dam back,” Mullins said.
