Description
This is a Cattleman's crack done to the rear on your off side.
Pre-Requisites
Post-Requisites
How To
- Start with the whip laying out in front of you, even with your off side shoulder
- Your arm should be across your body and reaching out towards the whip, keep the handle in line with the thong.
- Draw the whip to the rear
- As the whip passes your leg make sure the handle is angled slightly away from your body
- The motion should feel a little bit like painting the ground with a large paint brush
- Continue the swing of your arm
- Your upper arm will stop about level with the ground, but bend your elbow to continue the swinging motion until your forearm is pointing upwards
- The thong should swing overhead in a large arc
- When the cracker almost touches the ground in front, straighten your elbow out and point the handle of the whip towards your imaginary target behind you
