Bachelor Party Whip Lessons

Post by DarenHenryW »

So, having just gotten married back in Sept, I decided that for my bachelor party in mid-August, I wanted to go camping or do something fun in the outdoors. We settled on staying at a cabin that belonged to a friend of a friend. I brought my whips along and sort of forced all of my buddies to take a whip lesson.

Here are the results

No one got hurt (although Lord knows my buddy Jason tried his best to inflict some pain on Victor!) and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves!


Victor, with a wonderful look that's saying, "Dude, I have a whip in my hand . . . "

Looks like you guys had a terrific time. I´ll bet that if anyone got nicked with a whip, and then had to explain it happened during a bachelor party it would get more than a few laughs!
Cheers

Yeah, I worried a little about a title for this post that wouldn't make some of you squirm, but alas, it is what it is. I suppose I could have left off the fact that it was a bachelor and just made a post saying, "Whip lessons on trip to Cabin" or something like that, but the fact is, because it was MY bachelor party, I knew the guys wouldn't talk me out of it. If we all had just gone camping together for no particular occasion, I'm pretty sure that most of my buddies would not have played along as enthusiastically, if at all.

Hey, Noah,

No, the hat I'm wearing in these pics is actually an Akubra squatter I bought while visiting David Morgan's shop.
