Is it your first whip? If so, what a way to start. :whip:

If it's not, then what number whip is it? Also, did you get the "J" series whip with the emblem on the knot?

I am getting a J series, maybe not SA, but if it's going to be crafted by Terry, I said I'd like his signature on it!

And no it's not my first whip. I had a 10ft Black bullwhip in the 80s which I bought for $20. Mind you $20 would be worth $100 now, so it was pretty expensive for a 13 year old at the time. I don't know what happened to it over the years, but at the time I had a lot of fun with it, I remember taking a few hits to the ears and head as I cracked it....ouch and also remember it getting pretty beaten as I used to go down to the bush and swing off trees....but you know what...you cant undo them as easily as when Indy swung across the ravine at the begining of raiders :whip:

That’s great, congratulations.

A Terry Jacka Indy 4 whip will be a really nice present to yourself! I’ll be looking forward to seeing photos and hearing your thoughts, when it arrives.

Can't wait to see it; it's the magnum of whips as far as I've seen so far.
