WITD 101.67 First Whip Purchase10 viewsWhat whip or whips do I recommend for a beginner making their first whip purchase? Pretty simple, either a 3' dragontail or a 3' signal whip. Parachord is less expensive than kangaroo. A 3' single belly "budget" build kangaroo signal whip is adequate as a leather starter whip. A 4' signal whip should have two bellies to provide optimum performance.

WITD 101.68 When Should You Buy Your First Bullwhip21 viewsWhat type of bullwhip do you need if you throw horizontal style? I call these hybrid bullwhips as they have a stiff handle but are finished like a signal whip. Some whip makers call them hybrid signal whips. Be sure your plaiter and you are on the same page. For overhand style I recommend throwing a 3' snake whip to learn how to control the fall into your target before moving up to a bullwhip.

WITD 101.70 Hybrid signal vs signal5 viewsFor horizontal throwers consider a hybrid signal. It will give you more accuracy and control with whip speed. For two handed whip work signal whips still remain the best choice in my opinion. As a sgnal is flexible from the turk's head to the cracker it will have better flow. Two handed work whether you are throwing a 4 count or 6 count Florentine or doing a 3 beat weave is all about flow into your target.
