Default Brown Wynn Review

So I just received my 6 Brown Wynn decks from Theory11. I was quite excited after hearing such great things about these cards.

Front Design: 5/10

Jumbo index.... need I say more? I guess i will have to do my flourishes with the backs facing the audience.

Back Design: 9/10

Very simple and classy. Brown card with white borders and the wynn logo. I love it!

Fanning: 7/10

The first thing i did after i took out the cards were fans. They fanned ok, and definitely fell short of my expectations. I was not able to produce a perfect fan, whether it be a thumb fan or a one handed circular. However i did find that even after alot of handling, these cards still fanned consistently. That is definitely a plus.

Handling: 10/10

Oh man... this is where this deck really shines. The cards seem alot stiffer than anything else ive used. They handle so well for gambling, magic and xcm. They stay together in packets when you want them to. The werm has never came out so easily!

Overall: 8/10

What this deck lacks in fanning ability and front design, it makes up in handling. I am really happy with this deck and I will be using it in all of my table work.

I like the Bikes myself. More common and don't stand out.

Hmm, you're probably right but it's a nice add-on to the collection...

Honestly I believe this to be my second or third favorite deck to use behind the red wynns and maybe the tally-hos. My friend and I have been using them for about 2 months and I use them mostly for performing cardistry and one pack has lasted me this long.
