John Nunn (of Nunn Finer Tack & Bit of Britain Saddlery) is one of the USEA's longest sponsors (as well as one of the nicest guys around!) & normally I don't do specific blogs on all of our sponsors - unless they've done something really awesome. But I couldn't let this press release slip by - there's a HUGE sale going on now at Bit of Britain... 50-80% off!
Bit of Britain has generously allowed for USEA members to get a 5% discount on their purchases - and in return, that money comes back here to help support the programs we all love and enjoy like the AEC's, Young Event Horse program, ICP program, etc... We owe it to the one of the best of tack shops in the world (yes, world) to lend our support!
So jump over to the Bit of Britain website to snatch up these goodies before they're all sold out!
Oh, and speaking of goodies - if you haven't added Tack of the Day (also one of John Nunn's amazing inventions) as one of your "favorites" then you're missing out. Each day a couple of AMAZING products are offered for sale at super cheap prices (think 50-80% off...yeah...that good). But you have to hurry - the stuff sells out quick, and it'll be gone in 24 hours! Forever! And it's not bottom of the barrel junk, this is top quality tack, clothing, equipment, blankets, etc. GOOD stuff. I know where my tax return's going this year!
One last little scrumptious site to feast upon - Horse Froogle.com. Weird name, awesome deals - and free shipping! Can't beat that! Brought to you by the makers of TackoftheDay.com, so you KNOW it's good!
At some point in your riding career, you probably found yourself feeling or dealing with a little fear, failure, or frustration. We’ve all been there. Regardless of whether we’re competitive or recreational, we’ve likely found ourselves getting a bit stuck on stress or a struggle; dealing with a little defeat or disappointment, or feeling overwhelmed or underprepared.
We might still be recovering physically from the excitement of the 2025 USEA Intercollegiate & Interscholastic Eventing Championships, but mentally we keep playing the weekend over and over again in our heads.
