Full disclosure: I’m a mare person. I don’t mean to engage in gender stereotyping — certainly not every mare subscribes to the boss-beotch “outta my way” equine Beyoncé variety, but I certainly am a fan of those who do. And Amanda Cousins of ACE Equestrian in Hume, Virginia, really has her impersonation of that varietal down.
She’s been nailing all things The Life Equestrian, and in particular eventing, with her TikTok account (@pewpewsnponies). By turns hilarious and heartwarming, we’ve loved following her adventures on social media, and no doubt all 30,000 of her followers cheered loudly when she got back in the tack after a broken arm (and I mean a REALLY broke arm) when her horse had a bobble (but she didn’t fall off!) in the two-star at Great Meadow last August.
Now she’s back on form — even posting videos of her shooting her brace in a field (pew-pew, get it? And the girl is a FIERCE shot.) Let’s all wish her luck this season and have a giggle at these TikToks, too.
