LadyPact -> It slices, it dices.... it cuts down vines? (9/30/2009 11:02:13 AM)

A bit of background information here. While I did miss the CM meet up that was arranged during the Folsom Street Fair, I was able to attend the main event. What a party! It was like nothing I've ever been to before and had a fabulous time.
One of the extra treats was the opportunity to shop at some of the stores that are in the same location. We had ducked into a couple to get ourselves out of the sun and look for some specific items. For Me, that is kind of a treat. Just walking in to a regular business and picking through the toys. Long story short, while I was waiting for MP to check out some accessories for the wand, I went browsing a bit. I found some lovely whips along the back wall that I was having a very good time playing with. So much so that MP decided that one would make a lovely birthday present for Me. God I love that man!
Anyway, so I have this new 4 ft beauty. It is the same as the one pictured here http://www.mr-s-leather.com/W84.html except that Mine is black leather. She is absolutely gorgeous and I am just thrilled with the way she fits in My hand.
So, I brought her home. Since then, I've been practicing with her daily. While I do have other toys of the same length in My collection, nothing quite handles like the beauty of a whip. The feel of the leather handle in your hand. The sound of the crack. For a person like Me, even practice is ecstasy.
The funny thing about this is, what I have chosen to practice on. In the back of our house, we have a small patio that is covered by a trellis, which has some lovely hanging vines. These have made for excellent target practice! I've been taking them off leaf by leaf. This is fabulous for Me! Not only am I outside where I can't do any damage in the house, I have targets that show Me how My accuracy is doing.
There's only one problem. Eventually, I will have cut down all of the vines and will need something else. Since I'm just getting back into regular whips, I do not feel that I am ready to pass the 'cutting the toilet paper' test. I kind of need something in between.
This brings Me to My question to fellow whip enthusiasts out there. What types of things have you used for target practice? I have this great set up where I can hang objects. What has worked best for you?
