If we are going for a purely physical sensation, a strap will make the fun last longer than the cane.
a suggestion for making a bastinado session intense, yet relatively safe is to use a rubber hose. It stings like hell, but does not mark or bruise much. my sub has experienced it on many occasion and repeatedly seeks it.
