(Didn't see a topic for this, if there already is one - my apologies.)

Anyone here picking these up? I have to admit I'm not much of a card-thrower (unlike my brother who drew blood from me once with a thrown card), but the kid in my is intrigued by that they apparently make a sound.

The card collector in me will probably grab a pack just for the box design, but I'm curious to how they perform.

Agreed. I was a bit thrown off about them not having regular card faces at first, but the grading system is pretty cool and make more sense when I think about it.

These look awesome! There said they make a whistling sound as you throw them, which I thing is so cool! They are also made of plastic and so they should last a long time as well.
Personally never seen anything like this! I'm not gonna miss out :p

I've been practising card throwing just so I can grab these! They seem like a really cool idea, and even if they dont work they still look awesome :D

I just bought two packs, where can I get a target like that? Or is that just something you made?

For the foam target, check your local hobby/craft store like Michaels. The TYPE of foam used is a "crystalized" type. It will be crunchy in feel...

For the red bullseye...

You want to use a specific type of paint. Spraypaint will NOT work.

Use Craft Smart Red Acrylic Paint. (I assume ANY kind of Acrylic paint will work.)

Hope this helps!

Thanks, I'll have to pick some supplies up. And, tomelderfield, I'm not sure how well that target would work, it's got that rubber wrap around the styrofoam. I mean if they work, they work. I'd just be worried about the the thickness of the styrofoam and that rubber coating is all. But if you try it tell me how it works and I appreciate the suggestion.

I don't that type of target would work, Tom. Maybe if you are Ricky Smith Jr...lol.

I definitely recommend the foam target. It works best and can really take a beating too...
