Beautiful whip. i should have gotten the j series. i am loving my Jacka, it handles amazingly once you get used to the added weight and length. And cracks like a canon with little effort.

That’s a pretty one, so full of powerful whip cracking goodness too. Congratulations and have fun with it!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts after you had a chance to use it a bit.

just got home....

threw on my fedora, grabbed my sunglasses....told my 6 year old son to stand back.

25 years since I last held a bullwhip.....

KAPOW! :whip:

Gees though, 5 minutes later, and my arm is sore. Its only 8ft...glad I didn't go 10.

So first thoughts...it's heavy, very sturdy....still stiff.

I don't claim to be an expert by any stretch of the imagination, but it is easy to crack....stayed with the basic cattlemans and will experiment more as my confidence grows.

Loverly work Mr Jacka

They really do have a great smell. I keep my whips next to the bed and the first night I got it I could smell it all night. It was wonderfull. Only had mine a little over a week but been trying to crack it for at least 20 minutes a day. Gotta build up the muscles before I can go any longer.

Glad to hear you like your new Jacka bullwhip and are having fun cracking it :) Don't over do it too much though, if you try to muscle one of these whips it will muscle you back! :lol:

BTW, The smell is the leather mixed with the plaiting soap, It is kinda nice though isn’t it :lol:

whatever you do...do NOT tell the wife.

I said I bought it on ebay for $50

She still said that was too much :rolling: :rolling: :rolling:

Got some overhead cracks out yesterday....but I need more room.

It is a thing of beauty

AND A AUSSIE LIKE ME

50 BUCKS!!! WHAT?!? Congratulations - what a find. Ya, I would have never passed up a deal like that. I hate going to ebay because I always find way too much I want to get and it is so tempting just to click a few key strokes and have something sent to me. =P~ #-o But you got a heck of a deal! Have fun cracking that baby.

Actually I just re-read your post. I guess that you did not find a $50 deal did you? :oops: Don't worry, I won't tell your wife. Have fun cracking any way!
