Hey all,

As an owner of a 10' David Morgan and a whipcracker for more than 15 years now, I have always wanted a low maintenance workhorse whip in the Indy style and I think I hit the nail on the head upon receiving this 8' nylon in the Indy style from Rhett Kelley.

Only $150 with shipping included! Easy to crack, painless to maintain and really high quality. Oh, and don't be fooled by the color! That's the parafin wax still on it that has darkened it. When that wears off, it will be a natural tan - you can see highlights of the tan color peeking through underneath the wax coating.

Highly recommended as a starter whip, but Rhett's wait lists are almost like Adventurebilts these days, so be patient. Below are pics of it alongside the David Morgan.

Very nice

Now that's a nice looking whip!! No doubt about that!

Rhett's a champ!

Very nice. I'm going to get a nylon whip too very soon. I contacted Noreast Whips andRhett but Rhett hasn't gottenback to me yet. I was wondering about how they perform and it's good to hear some praise for them.

You might want to check out Greg DeSaye. He does good work.

Very nice, It looks good. Glad to see you got some pictures up.

Steve at Noreast whips http://www.neawhips.com does a great job. I got a pair of whips from him a month or two ago so that I could crack in the moist climate here in Seattle:



I'm glad I got them. Go with the 16 plait, they will be a bit heavier than the 12 plait.

Thanks for the plug, Louie, much appreciated! Hope the whips are holdin' up and doin' you well.

Steve.

Rhett makes great nylon whips. Did you have a long wait for it?

I was able to get in on his short list after Christmas because a few people backed out - It only took him about three or four weeks on mine. I think usually it's a few months.
