Here they are!
I had to do this in hackneyed fashion by using a digital video camera. So these are screenshots, and I gotta say the results are less than glorious but at least you can put a "face to the name".
That's the Russell Schultz 12 to 8 plait. Smooth as silk. I LOVE the way it rolls out.
Here's a lovely light-weight Aussie roo-hide whip I got on eBay. Don't know who the maker is, though.
That's a Gus Caicedo cowhide. Ain't it radiant?
All are ten footers. The Schultz whip is really crackin' great! I re-attached the fall myself after a couple-few concerted efforts. The end of the thong wore down a few inches until it got to the core strands. The hitch is solid and strong now that the core strands are anchoring it. They all got some powerful cracks going for them. The Aussie whip is fast and super accurate! I've been cutting daisies for target practice, whether on the ground or held up by a stand (of sorts).
I love 'em all. Hope you like 'em too!
Thanks for lookin'.....looky-loos!
