My last mistress really liked them but they are extremely painful and leave welts. I was whipped with a heavy bullwhip at least twice a week for abot a year. I didn't mind at first but after a while I begged my mistress to not ues it on me. It caused the end of our relationship. I didn't mind the pain but it just did too much damage. I much rather a cane or a paddle.

To paraphrase John Warren (He's a great guy! Buy his books!), the use of any single-tail whip on a living human is the sign of either a highly skilled whipmaster, or a complete fool, and the difference is rarely in doubt for long.

It doesn't sound as though your former mistress belongs in the first category...

It takes a long, long time to work up the proper skill with a signal whip, let alone a bullwhip. Frankly, anyone that starts on the latter is asking for trouble or just doesn't care.

As for your scenario.. perhaps she was more sadistic than you were masochistic. Or.. perhaps she didn't know what she was doing. Or.. or.. or.. A lot of variables here. Regardless, I'm not sure if there's an actual question here or if you're looking for affirmation that people should not use bullwhips?

I've seen them used in a scene, and they can be -very- effective.. even without contact. The threat alone is quite good when the pop goes off right near by as the whip is snapped.

For practice, one demonstrator I saw had a good suggestion. Get black shoe polish and put some on the leather tip of the whip, then set up a white pillowcase and start working on striking the case with consistency. The shoe polish will leave a mark, you'll know when you hit or missed. Since each whip is different, breaking it in and learning what to do with it, and what it can and cannot do, is paramount.

Bullwhips are very intense edgy play devices, with the propensity for damage great. Not everyone wants to be branded (bullwhip scars)for life to please their significant other. Moving on makes sense since there was a clear difference of opinion on where the releationship should explore. In the future if you have a Mistress who desires whip play, consider a Quirt or a Single-tail whip. Both are shorter in length than the bull whip so they are easier to control, thus controlling the damage more easily (that is not to say that both cannot cause permanent damage, as they both can cause considerable tissue injury). Both can be intense as far as a pain delivery device with or without permanent marks.
