Well, here is another great piece of gear to add to my collection.

This is a 10' 12 plait Indy bullwhip. Anyone care to guess the maker

: Now to learn to crack the da*n thing..

First, I need to attach the popper. (came off) Good thing there is a thread on how to do that...

I'll go so far as to say I'm enjoying mine right now!

I think it's a dead ringer for the Raiders whip. Here's a maker who is really dedicated to the craft.
Enjoy it in good health! Can't wait for you to get a good crack out of it!

I'd guess it's a Pagey. It looks good!

It's not one of mine. I taper my strands and only use roohide. This looks more like cowhide to me.

Ah. Well, either way, it's still a good lookin' whip!

Thanks everyone... It IS a very nice whip.

The maker is Gus Caicedo

The whip is cowhide.

Gus does excellent work, and ships quickly. I am getting some practice just throwing the whip out, and it seems to respond well.
