EDC = Every Day Carry. Be careful if you've never heard of it - it's an expensive rabbit hole to traverse.
Curious to know if anybody EDC's a deck of cards and if so, what deck and how? |

I keep a deck of Bicycle Rider Backs in my backpack, but I'm not sure if that counts. I don't really have the pocket space to actually keep it on me unless I'm wearing a jacket or something similar.

I use to carry a deck with me all the time. There use to be a leather card case, with snap closure I bought at the local magic shop. It kept the card box from getting sweaty and dirty.
Meir Yedid has a nice one that goes on the belt currently. https://www.mymagic.com/p/money-magic/card-coin-pouch If you are going to carry a deck of cards, then you should learn some card magic effects. Does not do much good if you don't know any effects with a regular deck of cards. |

How big is this bag Poof-Daddy? It sounds like you've got a full set in there.
Do you have a trick to keep the props from hitting each other in transit? |

I got mine on markdown. It is small for a backpack but large for a fanny pack. There are pockets and dividers inside and outside to separate everything. I have medical items I must carry every day that also fit. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Fieldline-Pro......51272033
I was originally inspired by the “Born Bag” http://borninnovations.com/shop/borns-ba......mpanion/ His price is actually not bad. I looked up leather carry bags for iPad Mini and found many in the same range. His comes with a book too and Patrick makes a folding mat sized for the carry bag. In the end, I have larger items I must have that would not do in the Born Bag but the one I found does the trick for me. Plus, being a large bellied person, the bigger bag swings to use better for me. My son was home a couple weeks ago on leave and had a blue leather bag for his iPad that was very similar to the Born Bag that he got at the PC on base for $130.00 (and it was definitely too small for me).

The organization sounds pretty good (a lot of backpacks just have nothing). I never thought about trying a range bag, but it makes a lot of sense in retrospect.
I have Born's Bag (which looks really nice), but I'm not sure I see my full sized cups and balls set fitting in it. Maybe a chop cup or a smaller cup set would fit. |

I often carry a large fanny pack as well, but I like jackets with lots of pockets...so it's not completely necessary.

Just a simple zippered duffle bag with one large compartment works for me, with about the same payload as an oversize woman's purse. I use clear zip-lock bags to keep smaller items identifiable and separated. The bags also allow heavier objects like tuck boxes etc. to slip/slide over each other, preventing many of the dings and corner dents they might otherwise suffer from banging into each other.

I started carrying everywhere I go so I can practice when I've got downtime. Even if it's just shuffling and controlling a card. I keep a pack in a metal card clip.

I never leave the house without a phoenix deck in my porper card clip.
