whipper

One who flogs

A whipper is someone or something that whips.

The term appears in compounds: a whippersnapper is a presumptuous young person, and a whipper-in is a huntsman's assistant who keeps hounds from straying.

In climbing, a whipper is a long, dramatic fall caught by the rope—the climber swings like a cracked whip.
