My whips
I only make one in a blue moon these days, but I loved making Indy bullwhips - made quite a few for quite a few members past and present.
Here are a couple of pics of the three I kept for myself. 2 8fts and a 10ft.

Re: My whips
How old are they? Do you crack them sometimes?
More front photos would be nice

Re: My whips
Well in the last pic, I'd say 12 years, 8 years and 1 year.
I used to crack them, these days not so much. The newest one, an 8ft, has only been test cracked a couple of times. The others are fairly broken in.

They look great! How did you get that "worn in" look with the one you only cracked a few times?whiskyman wrote:Well in the last pic, I'd say 12 years, 8 years and 1 year.
