you know regarding this I have this opinion.

Thoroquick is good for number power, hard to read patterns. But when you have the full sheet, you have the ability to read the pattern alot better, as far as layoffs. Just something I noticed. either way, the information is golden to a handicapper.

TR,

Funny, I've come to prefer the Quicks to the full sheet.. Like the concise Pattern Boxes, etc. and get a good feel for recent fig arcs..

True enough Bri.. Plus for me, I typically have to cap certain things quickly and frequently on short notice on the radio, and the Thoro-Quick is a great "at a glance" tool.

I agree Steve, but for some reason I have had more success using the full sheet then the quick, as far as pattern reading. I think it is because the pattern is more defined on the full sheet as far as dates, compared to the quicks where you have to 'space' the dates yourself. With me still relatively new (1.5 years-2) with them, I am still learning. The quicks are much easier to read though, as far as number power and recentcy.
