ORIGINAL: Sinergy A single tail is a fairly dangerous item (both to wielder and target) if used by somebody who has no practice or experience. So I would a) Obtain single tail b) Go to classes and/or consult with single tail experts c) Practice, practice, practice, practice. Did I mention practicing? d) Go to a local BDSM club and arrange to have a single tail expert watch. e) Use single tail on submissive. f) Check in frequently with submissive to determine that I was giving her good pain and not bad pain. Does that clarify my point a bit? Sinergy pillows work well for floggers, dunno about singletails? (Always been afraid of pokin' muh eye out).. guess I would add read, read, read if it's out there. Just grins and nods in agreement to everything Sinergy said and in the order too, John Pillows work for single tails too, although my preference is to hang a towel at about the same height the bottom would stand, then divide (in your mind) the 'safe quadrants' aka shoulder, shoulder, ass, ass (as opposed to kidney kidney and spine spine). Hang it so it's freely swinging, not against a wall. Then you can not only practice hitting your target, but you can also practice the whisper touch. The towel gives you good feedback about where you are landing it (or getting it close to the surface/towel). A whisper touch, placed anywhere you want it to land, is a very handy skill to have. Now if I could get my left hand to cooperate with that much precision I'd be a happy camper. I usually tell folks that, once you've got your swing down, 15 to 20 minutes every day will have you a fairly well and competent user in about two weeks.
