Bullwhip for Halloween?

Post by NewJerseyRaider »

I'm looking for a Bullwhip to complete my costume...so I'm not looking to spend a lot of money. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

IOAB from Winrich whips, but he makes them on order. So I think at this point he will not be able to make one in time. Just check: www.winrichwhips.com

Adam will do a "rush order" for more money. $20 extra I think. Check here.

Josh,
You can take a look at www.purewhips.com. And you can see viewtopic.php?t=23496 for pics and discussion of the whip that Gus just made for me. I got mine in less than two weeks, so I don't think he'd have any problem getting you a whip well before Halloween.
Let me know if you have any questions.

I thought Adam's lead time was just about a month. If that's still the case, you oughtta be able to get yourself one by Halloween. My latest IOAB only took about a month.

do you want a costume whip or a real whip? there are alot of those cheap 4 plait mexican whips on ebay that'll serve the purpose for a costume....even some local saddlery shops around here carry a wooden handled whip that would do nicely on a costume.

if you want a real working whip and don't have the $$$ for a morgan, i've heard nothing but great things about adam's IOAB whip....but you better hurry....tick tock tick tock..... :D

Adam has said he is backed up two to three months, so the "rush order" is needed if you want it for halloween...and if you choose to do that you better hurry.

The IOAB is a great whip!

I ordered my whip from Adam on the 8th of September. He said he was gonna do his best to have it shipped before the end of October. But mine isn't a rush job, since I don't need it for Halloween.
Anyway, you should decide quickly on what you want.
