Here they are!

I had to do this in hackneyed fashion by using a digital video camera. So these are screenshots, and I gotta say the results are less than glorious but at least you can put a "face to the name".


That's the Russell Schultz 12 to 8 plait. Smooth as silk. I LOVE the way it rolls out.


Here's a lovely light-weight Aussie roo-hide whip I got on eBay. Don't know who the maker is, though.


That's a Gus Caicedo cowhide. Ain't it radiant?

All are ten footers. The Schultz whip is really crackin' great! I re-attached the fall myself after a couple-few concerted efforts. The end of the thong wore down a few inches until it got to the core strands. The hitch is solid and strong now that the core strands are anchoring it. They all got some powerful cracks going for them. The Aussie whip is fast and super accurate! I've been cutting daisies for target practice, whether on the ground or held up by a stand (of sorts).
I love 'em all. Hope you like 'em too!

Thanks for lookin'.....looky-loos!

Very nice. thanks for posting the pictures.

You know, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if that Australian bullwhip that you own, was made by whip maker Terry Jacka. I couldn't say for sure with out getting a better look at it but It has a lot of characteristics of his older bullwhips.

I was going to say that looked like an older Jacka whip, but Borton beat me to it.

It's hard to tell from the pics, but that's what it looks like to me as well..

So, there's another opinion from another Dan...

And another opinion: Nice bunch of whips, Ravenswood!

Thanks, Dans!
