Seriously though...could it be some sort of whip for controling cattle or other stock? Hard to tell from the pics but I assume that the rope is attached at the end of the stick opposite to that which has been beaten to a fibrous finish?

Very amusing !
Yes now stock whip / stick seems a good possibility ... it is firmly woven into the stick at the end opposite the fibrous mass , so yes would function as a whip.
