Hello everyone I'm looking for a good card to forehead to add to my arsenal. I think it's clever and gets a good laugh from the spectators. Thanks.

Card to mouth is a great effect but I love how Bill Malone pulls a fistfull at a time out of his mouth.

Roger Clause had a very nice version using an Erdnase bottom palm which delivered the card in the correct position in his left hand. He was able to mime an overhand shuffle to cover the palmed card when instructing the spectator to shuffle the cards and then placed the card on his forehead as the spectator focused on shuffling.

Michael Close's routine (based on Carney's) is exceptional. One of my favorite card tricks of all time.

Okay so I figured out the card to mouth, but I feel there's not much misdirection going on. I mean even if they're close and looking down to push the card in, some spectators are observant and see the other hand come up, are any of these versions suggested have better misdirection? Thanks again for all the advice, oh and also what's a good torn and restored routine where you can hand the card out immediately? I was watching a clip of Slide and figured out how he did the Mis Made it's clever. Couldn't figure out the rest though lol anyways thanks again.

Have selection on bottom. Spec close eyes and focus get card in your palm place on forehead.

I like Michael Close's card to forehead routine. (it's in one of his books, but it's almost better to learn on video so you can see the proper timing in the routine.) The trick is awesome, and if you're limited for time (as in table hopping) you can stop at almost anytime and the trick seems like it's concluded. (all together it's nine phases, but they go by really quickly depending on how you play it.) It's also a post graduate course on misdirection.
