Item Description
Florida’s interior has been cattle country since the 1500s and remains so today. Florida’s horseback herdsmen are known as “cracker cowhunters,” named after their expert use of a whip. Used to roust cattle from dense, tangled vegetation and keep them moving on swampy trails, the tool does not strike the animal. The distinctive crack of a well-placed throw just over their heads usually elicits a response. The whip also has a been commonly used as a tool of communication between cowboys.
