Australian Stock Whip

Australian stock whips are becoming more and more popular worldwide due to their durable material (kangaroo or Redhide leather) and the fact that they are usually hand made and comes in a range of sizes and designs to suit your individual needs. It can be confusing searching for the perfect Australian stock whip when you are first starting out, as you need to consider the thong, cracker, fall and handle sizing and material.

Kangaroo hide is durable and lightweight which is why its usually the leather of choice for stock whip makers all over Australia. There are more and more overseas manufacturers offering cheaper options made in Australian stock whip designs. However they usually don't last long as users can quickly determine the difference from a quality whip and a cheap manufactured one. Things to look for: is the whip australian made, what leather was it made of, is the weight of the whip leveled or unbalanced, does the thong handle all types of cracking or are some techniques not possible due to its poor design, have a closer look at the plait (can you see glue in between or inconsistencies).
