New nylon Indy bullwhip

Post by tomek9210 »

Hi! I want to show you my newest whip, it is 16 plt coyote brown indy style bull, (6 and 12 plt bellies), fall is redhide. Under TH I put 70g lead.
Here are photos:

I'm seeing that you go back to a checkerboard pattern right before the Fall knot---Very interesting! How's that working out?

Nice work, by the way...

Yep, about 1 inch before fall I changed herringbone to checkerboard, I think it makes the piont before fall hitch stronger and it looks good :)
I haven't cracked it yet, it's snowing all day and tomorrow I will send it to the customer.
