This is the Gallery of "Gator Whips" - Roy Partin

This new Gallery replaces the former "Masters Gallery", which will work from now on as pure archive. Here you will find not only the work and art from folks who sell whips, but also from folks, who create their whips out of pure passion. And we have an additional gallery. It is called "The Gallery - Making of".

Super whips Roy.
My favorite of these is the orange and blue.

Thank you Ron. It’s my favorite too. It was quite loud when I fired it off in the living room this morning.

Appreciate it Mr Robert. That’s 2 votes for orange and blue which happens to be the school colors of my Alma Mater The University of Florida

Ron, appreciate it but she heard it loud and clear. Yes, I received a dirty look and tongue lashing

No, Rog. Orange and Blue is mine. I was first! Well, hm... Probably I wasn't.
Great designs, Roy. Everything is next to perfect. As always. I love the idea
of having those round pattern up the whole length of the handle.

I too like that orange and blue!
Every time I think you have already hit the perfection on Cow Whips you show us more....
Always something you've tweaked and improved. Fantastic work, you set the standard higher every time. Beautiful.

They're both great, but here's one more vote for orange and blue. Interestingly, artists have a device known as a color wheel that we use to determine what colors go well together. In generally accepted color theory, orange is the compliment for blue :)

Gotta love the orange and blue! They were my father's high school colors, my high school colors, and will be my son's high school colors (in three different districts).
I'll give it a try, Dad, but it's going to be really hard...kind of like trying to saw something in half using a banana.
