About the host

Hosted by Bob Shedeed

Host profile image
We owned a hardware store for 30 years in Nebraska and decided to retire to the beautiful South Dakota Black Hills. In 1983 we joined the National Senior Pro Rodeo Association. This organization gives you a second chance after the kids are gone and you have worked long enough. Bob accumulated several championships in the NSPRA - 3 in the All-Around, 4 in the Ribbon Roping, and 6 in the calf roping. In 2009 through 2012, he was the World Champion Header in the team roping competition in the 60 plus age group. We also traveled in Canada and received several titles there. Bob was inducted into the South Dakota Cowboy Hall of Fame.

Donna won the titles in Ribbon Roping with Bob - he catches the calf, she grabs the ribbon off the tail, and runs to the finish line. She's won 4 World championships in the All-Around, 3 World titles in Barrel Racing, and Frontier Champion team roping heeler in 2007. She's also inducted into the South Dakota Cowgirl Hall of Fame.

So, after 15 years in this home, we built a second home down the road, to be closer to our big barn and roping arena.

Why they chose this property

This home is in the foothills of the beautiful Black Hills, where prairie meets mountains. We built it on a cliff, with a spectacular view. It has log siding, with subtle stone trim, and sits on 7+ acres, overlooking the horse barn and pasture.

We are centrally located to all that is good in the Black Hills.

What makes this property unique

We built our place on a cliff, overlooking the southwest valley. This one-of-a-kind view includes pasture, hills, our roping arena, and the biggest, bluest sky imaginable.

Oh, and did we mention only 20 minutes from Mt. Rushmore and 15 from Custer State Park?!
