How do I animate a whip?

I want my character to have an Indiana Jones style whip but I can’t figure out how to make him do the actual whip action.

I’ve created 3 different sculptures of the same whip, each in a different position to perform the whip motion. I thought if I could somehow key frame one to the next and then fade them, it would look decent. (Although, even if I did that, I would still have no idea how to allow him to equip it and have it attached to him to use in different locations others than the location I keyframed. I’m still learning)

Otherwise, I would use animate and speed it up, but there is no way to contour the shape of the whip.

I’m really at a loss. Thanks
