My Robert Duke bullwhip
I've had this whip for a couple of months now, but I haven't had time to post a topic about it. This is one awesome whip! It cracks really easily and is tough as nails. It is a 8 ft, kangaroo hide bullwhip. Thanks Mr. Duke for this awesome piece of art!

I'm not sure what you guys are getting at, that looks similar to the other Robert Duke whips I've seen.

Congrats Indy89 on your whip! I had Robert make my first real whip nearly two years ago, and it's the one that goes with me everywhere--my "workhorse" whip. It has its own special feel that actually makes it a little more accurate and easy to handle than my other two whips, although I absolutely love those, too. He seems to have made the transition a little stiffer on mine, making it more accurate in target practice. Mr. Duke was really a pleasure to deal with, as well.
Enjoy your whip!
Enjoy your whip!
Columbiana Jones,
do you have a picture of your Duke whip you can post?

Hi,
Take a new fall and slice it on end of the whip. Cut of old fall. Hole in it should be slit. Then pull off fall, and put there a new one.

Here's Columbiana Jones's Duke bullwhip:
and here's Indy89's:
I think Columbiana Jones said his (the top picture) about 2 years old...it's interesting to see the differences in two bullwhips made by the same maker.
Personally I think Columbiana Jones's looks better (but that's just my opinion).
