NO MORE WHIPARTIST!!!
www.whipartist.com
It seems that Benjamin Scott is retiring from whip making because of some sort of wrist injury. This is a real bummer because I've seem and used his whips and love them. He made one of the best david morgan replicas i've seen. He also let you customize EVERYTHING about the whip down to the smallest detail. He was truly a "whip artist." However, he is still selling non-slip whip holsters. It kills me to see whip makers retire, especially one's who make awsome replicas of out beloved David Morgan 451 series!!!!!

I certainly didn't say he was the one and only...I'm new to the COW scene and didn't realize that there were so many whip artists who specialize in replicating Indy whips. Morgan is famous for his whips and he made the original. I also have the added benafit of living close to him so that I could actually see one before I bought it. When I added up all these factors it seemed to be a wise decision. I believe it still is. I also believe that had I bought another brand, I would still want to eventually own a Morgan. This was actually the case because my first real whip was a Strain. He's not the one and only...only the first.

I really like Strains whips too. They are so tightly braided...much tighter than a Morgan. I used to own two of them but I ended up selling them. I prefer the look of the Morgan over the Strain...thats why I'm keeping my Morgan. I might consider an 8 footer from Strain, custom raiders, but I really don't need two whips.
