Ben Scott is Back
Posted: Mon Jul 21, 2008 9:42 am
Hi to all the guys who visit the Bullwhip Forum. This is my first post, and would like to ask you a question. I was trying to decide which bullwhip to buy (that is, an Indy bull from the previous movies), and have found that my choice would be among a Strain, a Del Carpio and a Morgan. Still, I had two other whipmakers in my sight: Paul Stenhouse, who is back in the States but is not making whips at the time, and Ben Scott.
I got very interested about Ben's work, because of the transition he makes (the one with the pipe and the spring), which seems very durable and strong to me. Besides, he plaits 3 bellies into the whip.
I'd love to know if someone owns one of his whips and the differences among the previous three and his, regarding performance, weight, etc. Your help will be much appreciated since, although I found some information in this forum about Ben's work, it was scanty, and of little help.
All the best,
Marhala.
