New Whip(pics)

Post by Indiana Williams »

I wanted to share some pics of my new 9ft DelCarpio I got out of the Bazaar. This has to be one of the most beautiful whips Ive ever seen. Its alittle over a year old but handles like a brand new whip.Compared to my other bullwhip(7' EC, which is on the bay, check the bazaar for the link) its a whole new animal.When I first started throwing it around I felt like I had to learn how to crack all over again.Its very graceful where as the 7' is more abrupt.Heres a couple pics enjoy.Im sure youll be able to tell which is which.

:shock: I can't wait to get MY Del Carpio!!! Thanks for the pics... now I have to go check the mailbox. Forget that he hasn't even started making the whip yet. :P ;-)

Really nice looking whip though. Very Morgan-looking!!!
