A Gaff Deck can be used in plenty of ways. What are some of the platter and effects you use with your Gaff Deck?

Which deck you are referring to?

There are a few types of gaff bicycle decks.

I guess he's referring to the gaff deck which E sells. flameman120, you should get the Army of 52 DVD if you're looking for effects to use with the gaff deck. As for the patter, you should be creative and come up with your own script.

Army of 52 DVD is good. If you are really into Gaff decks, a good friend of mine, showed me really good stuff using Ultragaff decks (although they are expensive), they provide many good stuff. The long hours DVD will let your imagination go wild with so many stuff loaded in.

However, try not to rely on Gaff decks. As they do have their many disadvantages and advantages.

Maybe I should add on to this sentence. The gaff deck allows you to do the impossible, however, do not create a routine entirely out of gaff cards as your spectators will start to get suspicious of your cards.

Yes, exactly. After all you can't possibly allow your spectator to know your entire deck are gaff cards. It's also good to have few gaff load into normal deck. So after doing certain trick involve gaff, allows spectator to check the gaff cards(misprint,etc). More of this can be found in Ultragaff deck.

I have the ghost gaff and the black tiger gaff. It's interesting and has lots of shock value in the routines. But sometimes, having gaff cards slotted into normal decks does have its cons too.

I would usually have a gaff setup deck and a normal one for routines
:)

yup, the magic will be stronger if the audience play around and examine your cards for awhile and you continue to perform your magic. At some time,you can load the gaff cards in and I think the magic will be stronger!

yup i agree with nickypower. the magic with be stronger if u r able to switch the deck.
