: : I ordered a 12' Indy style whip from Mark Allen Prod. It was $375. Ouch! Anyway, I'm excited to see how it looks. I already have two American 12' whips, so I will probably be able to handle it ok. It will be nice to see the difference, and it should look good with the costume.
: : Has anyone seen the David Morgan site lately? It is now $520 for a 10' Indy whip! I'm all for authenticity, but come on! He must be tired of making them. I have a family member who's a contractor, and when he doesn't want to do a particularly nasty job, he just bids too high. Maybe David's applying the same practice. If I don't get a Morgan (or at least some $ towards one) for Christmas, I'm just going to give up on it. I have a feeling they won't be available for much longer though.
: : See ya! DeWayne

: DeWayne, hopefully you will be very pleased with your Mark Allen bullwhip when it arrives. It’s a very high quality whip that is well made and handles very well. Regarding the David Morgan whip, there has been a steady price increase of the past several years on his whips, so no real surprise on the price increase this Fall. Hopefully they will still be available for many years to come, unfortunately just not exactly affordable.

I'm afraid Mr. Morgan has pulled entirely to far away with his prices from this fan to ever think of ordering one, and that is a shame. Regards. Michaelson
