Re: Just Got My New Purple LoneStar
Great looking whip! I love the color.
Re: Just Got My New Purple LoneStar
Nice colors!! Joe makes some really nice whips, and his long handled ones are really spectacular. I've got one of his "Aussie" whips and I love it. Hope you like yours, too!
If you break it in pretty good before November, you should bring it back to the Queen Mary and use it in the next whip competition!

Re: Just Got My New Purple LoneStar
I have always loved the Lonestar series, I have my eye set on that 2 tone 16 plait!
I have one of the LC/TOD whips and that whip is still tight as a drum and it is over 3 years old and used regularly. His plaiting is unreal!
Crack On!

Re: Just Got My New Purple LoneStar
Thanks everyone! That Purple one is one of my favorite whips! I thought you might like to see the rest of my whips so here they are- (oops- I just found out that MY Terry Jacka is a custom whip with a 12 inch handle & not a Delongis style sorry for that mess up)
Oh & also here is a link Where I'm using the Purple LoneStar to practice some wraps & a matched pair of Joe Strain 7 ft 16 plait Aussie style bullwhips for some two handed fun! - I'm still learning so any of your input would help! Thanks!

But I had never herd of Screaming Masters so I asked around - none of the whip makers & enthusiast I know had never herd of Cillian Freeman or Screaming Masters- but I decided to take a chance & purchase one of her Whips-
Cillian freeman her self is a pleasure to deal with & the whip She made me
is well constructed, beautiful to look & a pleasure to crack My girlfriend loves it! & so do I-
As far as close-ups of my whips- I have a few on Facebook but I haven't got around to taking pics all of them yet- I'll try to get on that & post more pics here- I have some on photo bucket

Spectacular whip from Joe, the color is fantastic. I have two of his and they only get better with age. The rest of your collection is also very impressive!
Cheers!
