Using a Crop

We have just started playing with a crop, well not so much a crop but impacting with the rod part avoiding the tip. More of a cane type of use.

My question for those who know is

Do you warm up the ass before, using a hand or other implements to warm up and redding the ass or do you just go for it cold and go straight for the welts?

That completely depends on what your desired outcome is.

I'm kind of partial to seeing the red marks progress into parallel black and blue lines!

I'm told unless there are welts, it is just waiting her time and I really do not want to do that.

Speaking solely from experience, I find that starting with low impact blows, just taps, over the buttocks, warms up the recipient. Force is increased slowly while the rate of blows is decreased until I am hitting short, sharp blows that cause clenching and "hissing".

It comes down to how your play partner reacts. The very first time I tried a crop-like implement (Reagan was president) the first strike sent her halfway across the bedroom. I thought the blow to be moderate, she hated it. My present playmate does not bruise and by agreement, I do not cause welts. Her bottom is quite sore the day after play, but looking at it you could not tell anything happened. No rosy cheeks to show off, only a delicate gait as evidence.

The crop is versatile, too. One can use the tip to flog the inner thighs and breasts, again frequency of blows over force.

Experiment and remember that desires and moods change from session to session.

I have always said, when you don't know what you are doing,

do it to yourself first.

I have a great deal of experience with Riding Crops, mainly from riding horses all my life and being smacked on my behind with one many times. The thing about crops is you don't need to swing it hard, its more about repetitions. Even a light swat with a real riding crop will leave a welt and sting. The sting builds with each swat, and its easy to swat a lot of times because crops are usually well balanced, so its easy to set an ass on fire. The lash or tab is the part that stings and leaves the painful welts, the stick part is like a cane and leaves a stripe, but its tab that really stings.

What I like about riding crops is the flexibility of the shaft and how you can get it into a rhythm of over 100 swats per minute.
