G’Day my name is Bevan welcome to my web site, I’d like to take up a bit of your time and tell you about how I ended up making whips… I began seriously using whips with work back in the 80’s where I was a Jackaroo in South Australia and then a stockman working on large Cattle Stations in the Northern Territory for many years, where I used many whips, improvised many styles made from various materials. The first being mum’s Tea Towel!! I was champion tea towel cracker and made my sister run whenever I pick one up cause she know I didn’t do dishes! To present day when the Mrs hears the crack of the towel, and it’s funny you know, cause she bolts too! Strange too how I never see her out when I test run the whips as I finish them…Yes every whip has a test run prior to shipment.
BWR Whips are hand made in the town of Renmark, part of the wonderful Riverland of South Australia. All of my items are hand made to order by myself, in my workshop, with the Mrs’s blessing, I recon she thinks she’s safe from the towel that way!
I perfected my craft over time and found Kangaroo hide the best, cleanest, strongest material ideal for both Stock and Bull whips. I produce a well balanced, strong whip, suitable for our Australian Outback.
Each Bull whip has a 5mm 316 Stainless Steel rod in the handle – no chance of rusting. Stock whips have tapered, balanced, fiberglass handle - fully plaited. All whips have full Kangaroo plaited belly and bolster.
I am now making bosals, twisted raw hide core, full kangaroo hide outer, nose button and heal knot, along with hangers - a simple one and a fancy plaited one, take a look!
There's also a lace cutting and beveling tool, check that out too!!
Please explore my site. Call or email me to learn more about my whips, bosals and Beveler/stranding tool.
Thank you for visiting.
Note: I’m only joking about the tea towel. Never crack anyone or anything with your whip, it will tear skin and flesh and is capable of breaking bones! – did you also know the crack actually breaks the sound barrier!
