These are hands down my over all favorite cards. They handle like a dream, and they don't raise much suspicion because they don't look too different. They have a classier look than the Bikes do, but it's not so unique that people will think the deck is rigged. That's a huge plus for me because no one else I know is into magic. I prefer the Circle Backs over the Fan Backs, but that's just because they're less busy, and the fan backs distract me some times, which I don't want happening if I'm trying to preform with them. Overall, this is my number one choice for quality cards.

Tally-Ho's are insane. The finish is amazing and the style of both the circle and fan backs are great. A have a few decks myself, as well as some Bikes - and Tally-Ho's are so much better, mainly due to their Linoid finish; whereas Bikes have an Air-Cushioned finish, which isn't quite as good.
Definitely get them, especially on this site as they are very cheap here.

I really love these cards. I am still a beginner, but these cards really help with my performances. I'd recommend them to any beginners not looking to spend a lot, but who want classy and great cards, as well.

I love Tally-Ho's. They're only a bit more than Bicycle's but for the extra price you get so much more. They feel just...right. You really have to handle them for yourself to feel it. The stock is just right for me. It's thin enough to Faro, Riffle, and spring the cards yet thick enough so that they don't bend easily.
The finish is just right for me. It's not clunky, but not too slippery.
The design is great. The classic red and blue backs really get rid of the suspicion to the spectator that the cards are gimmicked or rigged in any way.
I've been looking for a deck of cards like this for a long time and have finally found it. They're casual like Bicycle's yet high-quality like custom cards.
I highly recommend these cards. Five stars easily!

I've been doing magic for four years, and for three of those years I have searched for the perfect deck. This is it. The Linoid finish is very smooth, but at the same time not too slippery. Same with the stock - it is thick, but not so thick that you can't palm, spring, or riffle shuffle with the deck.
I've had my decks for two weeks and they handle like I just took them out of the box. Note that I perform and practice with cards for around a total of three hours a day, yet they still handle like the day I got them.
In addition to the incredible quality of the cards, the designs are simple and elegant. I recommend getting six of each color and design. Trust me, after buying these cards, you will never want to handle another deck. These come at a great price too! theory11.com has them for the best price.

Tally-Ho is one of the best standard playing cards ever. The finishing is great, holds powder great, nice design, not easily glimpsed. Great for XCM / Cardistry.
The colors are red and blue. They both have great effect for spectators. The point is, this is a deck you can get for low price with extremely high quality.
Standard cards for superior quality and performance.

Good 'ol Tally's. Good for basically everything. Fans, cuts, etc.
