Bullwhips - Red Hide Selection
Red Hide is the name given to a type of cowhide that has gone through a specific tanning process. As the name suggests the final product is a deep red colored leather. The quality of any cowhide depends on the original hide. Scars can create weaknesses in the leather. Young cattle have more stretch in the hide, which is not desirable for whips. All leather will stretch but if the strands at the end of a whip stretch too much then they are more susceptible to breakage.
Red Hide loaded and balanced Bullwhips. These whips are leather loaded, which means that more weight is put into the belly of the whip. The belly of any whip is the most important component. If a whip has no belly it will not crack effectively. All Aussie Whip Maker whips have the appropriate amount of weight in the belly. A loaded and balanced whip refers to a whip that has the right amount weight in the belly in the right spot throughout the whip. The length of the handle is also matched according to the length of the whip.
