New member and new whip
Posted: Thu Nov 01, 2007 9:58 pm
Hello all. My name if Jim and I live in N. Tex. First I'd like to say that this forum has taught me more about whips than all the other research I've done on the web. I started at the end of the forum and read forward, amazing amount of knowledge here.
With that said, I wanted to show off my newest whip. (It's not an Indy, so I hope that's ok). This was an Ebay find. I took a chance and bought it not knowing anything about the maker. The only info I could find on Mike Brower was on this forum. Well, I was VERY pleased with what I got. It is a beautifully well made whip. Very tightly plaited, but after a week of daily cracking it is just now starting to break in. This was my first real whip. By that I mean one that didn't have a rope core. And by the way, I'm currently standing in line for one of Bernie's whips.
