Whip Basics. The Forum

Roy, thank you a LOT! You are the original inspiration here for me for a great built cow whip. To hear that from the King of Cow Whips really means a lot to me, thank you sir.

I will readily admit I look forward to seeing it come to life with a bang!

More progress. End of last belly out to 9' and time to finish plaiting and twist tip.

Rachel, this will be one very serious whip!

Wow, 9' of thong?
Mr. Robert's right.
One serious whip indeed.
You're doing a great job.

Ron

Yessir Mr. Robert, it is probably my most serious whip to date

Ron yessir it will be 10' total on the thong. 15" Ash handle.

Rachel, that's going to be one smooth, slow rolling joy to crack.

Ron

Thank you, Ron. I believe so.

Rachel, I have faith in you ...... in all things.

Ron

10' 10 plait 100% kangaroo hide cow whip with a twisted taper core and two plaited bellies. Ash handle of 15" long. Fall is twisted taper tied on with nail knot. Twisted taper sinew cracker.








In motion,

Wow!
It looks terrific Rachel.
From the pics it also looks like it flows like buttered molasses .
Someone is going to be super happy.
Excellent job.

Ron

Rachel - WOW! That's all I can say: WOW!

Oh my, Rachel, that is gorgeous. Fantastic work, ma'am. The photos make me want to hold it a crack it so bad.

Ron, thank you. I sure appreciate it.

Mr. Robert, thank you, that is the best one can hear about their work, I think!

Mark, thank you, that's what I aspire to build, a whip that begs to be put in motion. I sure do appreciate it..

Outstanding! I really like the signature on the handle - what a nice touch.

Scott, thank you so much!

Beatiful job Rachel!

Rachel, I can't stop looking at photos of this whip. I can't believe how much this whip wants me to take it out and play!

Mark, I feel exactly the same!

Rachel: I can't...even... This is gorgeous!!

So pretty, WS. I love your whips so much
