Cornhole Bags-The Basics

You have choices when it comes to Cornhole Bean Bags.  Maybe you were introduced to the game of Cornhole and you bought a set which contained the Cornhole bags.  This was all you needed for awhile.

Now you are a serious Cornhole player and you have worn out the first set of bags.  Do you have choices and options?  You most certainly do!

Begin at an online site that has bags, boards, and accessories.  You will find that there are many choices.

First of all, you will have color choices.  You can choose a favorite color or a color that you know another competitor does not use. 

This is only the beginning of your choices, however.  If you have a favorite college team you may be in luck.  Maybe you root for a certain baseball team.  If you are a Cornhole Game player who plays in any weather situation you may want a weather resistant set of Cornhole bags.  Another good idea might be a complete all weather Cornhole Sets. 

Some Cornhole bags are more heavy-duty than others. If your Cornhole bags get quite a work-out or are used regularly you may want bags that are made from fabric that will last.  You will also need to decide what you want inside your Cornhole bags.  They come filled with corn, beans, sand or plastic pellets.  Many serious Cornhole players have a favorite and this is what they stick with.  Just remember that different bags slide different depending on the type of Cornhole Boards you are playing on.  Sometimes it doesn't matter, but it's just something to keep in mind.

You can make your own Cornhole bags or have them made for you.  This is fun because you can personalize them or make them from fabric that you have chosen yourself.  This results in a set of Cornhole bags that are unique.  You need to check on requirements before you make the Cornhole bags but they are traditionally 6”x6” and weigh one pound each.
