Doug Carpenter - Hall Of Fame Individual
The late Doug Carpenter literally wrote the book about the Western Pleasure horse in 1996, in which he presented his ideas and concepts for the discipline. His foundation of knowledge about the horse industry included working for trainer Tommy Manion, as well as owners Karen Sullivan and John Mulholland. He later developed a successful partnership with the late Keith Whistle buying, training and selling Western Pleasure horses.
A true lover of the horse, the man known to many as “Carp” most enjoyed being behind the scenes, honing the skills of the horses in his hands, although he also showed to win several major titles. The horses whose reins Doug touched tell the greater story of his great eye and matchmaking skills. Just some of those horses he interacted with were Miss Docs Melody, Hotrodders Jet Set, Ms MBJ Mudlark, Sheza Kinda Fancy, Time To Cash In, Docs Bo Doll, Racy Rumors, Paint Me A Zippo, Cuition, Miss Surely Bars and TNT Fluid Fred. He had $70,890.89 in lifetime NSBA earnings, $30,839 as an Open NRHA rider as well as $89,927 in earnings as an NRHA horse owner.
The NSBA Honors banquet will be held on Sunday, August 14, during the NSBA World Championship Show and Breeders Championship Futurity at the Built Ford Tough Livestock Complex in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
