Murphy's Magic Banshees: Cards for Throwing (2nd Ed.) – Trick

Precision, Speed, and a Sonic Scream

From Murphy's Magic Supplies, Inc., Banshees offer a practice card experience built for throwing with consistency. These cards blend durability with purpose, pairing a high-grade plastic blend with a distinctive die-cut hole pattern that creates an audible cue as they cut through the air. The concept originated after a World Record Holder’s throw inspired creator Jason Brumbalow to design dedicated throwing cards that could endure hundreds of throws while preserving feel and accuracy. The result is a set that rewards controlled flicks and confident releases, without sacrificing affordability.

What makes Banshees stand out is not just the look but the feel and feedback they provide during practice. The uniquely shaped holes optimize air flow to produce the signature ‘scream’ while the edges are bevel-cut to maximize carving and penetration through air. Practitioners can sense the card’s travel and response, helping you fine-tune timing and grip without guessing.

Key features and benefits

• Durable high-grade plastic blend designed to withstand hundreds of throws while preserving edge and shape
• Die-cut holes engineered to improve aerodynamics and produce the audible air-scream
• Bevel-cut edges that enhance carving through the air for cleaner releases
• Built-in measuring system on the card faces to track throwing power and consistency over time
• Second Edition packaging with a matte tuck box for premium presentation
• Ages 13 and up; suitable as a gift for hobbyists or professionals pursuing precision practice

Design-conscious and performance-minded, Banshees invite you to experiment with different grips and release angles, all while keeping practice affordable. The included measuring marks help you visualize progress as you refine your power and accuracy across sessions. While results vary, many throwers notice more consistent feedback and repeatable motion when incorporating Banshees into routine drills.

For those who want a broader set of throwing techniques, Velocity by Rick Smith Jr. offers a complementary video resource that covers technique and performance concepts. Note that the Second Edition tuck box is matte, and the “Second Edition” label appears on the front. This small update reflects a refined presentation while maintaining the same core performance features that make these cards a staple for throwing practice.

In short, Banshees are crafted to meet a unique training need: durable practice cards that deliver tactile feedback, measurable progress, and a distinctive air-slicing sound that signals a well-executed throw. They pair well with a magic or hobbyist collection and can be a thoughtful addition to a practice routine for both new and seasoned throwers.
