Thread: Whips

As a kid I always wanted a whip but my parents told me that I'd probably put my eye out. Now I am at the age where, although I still want a whip, I know for a fact that I'd probably put my eye out. Still would be fun though.

The working stockmen I have spoken to in Australia have all said that kangaroo leather is the best leather for whips. Kangaroos don't sweat so the leather is finer grained and doesn't have pores in it which makes it a more supple leather but with very good tensile strength.
