Big Foot

   This is, essentially a boot sole-on-a-stick. This wide thick, stiff leather paddle on a turned-wood handle is a fast and effective fanny warmer that "paints the barn red" with speed and efficiency.  Surprisingly, it is less severe than its narrower cousin, the Little Foot.

      The uncommon boot sole leather that is standard for this item was chosen so that you can retain control during warm-up, tapping or hittling lightly until you are ready to turn up the heat.
   However, this leather will not bend past a certain point without crazing ... and cracking. If you want Big Foot for heavy hitting, we recommend that you choose harness leather instead of boot-sole. It is more flexible and the tannage is less likely to craze.

The Little Foot

    This is a narrower version of the Big Foot. Paradoxically, the smaller size makes for a much sharper effect -- although over a smaller area.

     Here too, you have leather choices and color options. The heavier boot-sole is more "thuddy"; the flexible harness leather more sting-y. As with the Big version, hard-driving might craze and crack the boot-sole and we recommend you choose harness leather instead.
