Why are bean bag toss games one of the best ways to accomplish this family bonding?  Simple: toss games, especially ones such as cornhole, allow everyone to participate and it doesn’t matter what your age or arm strength may be.  Corn toss bags weigh only one pound.  Most folks have the ability to toss these bags the distance required.  Also, games such as cornhole require little mobility; in fact, for all intents and purposes, you can stand in the same spot the whole time.  This means that everyone from a child to a grandparent can play.

This is what separates bag toss games from other backyard games.  Many games require players to possess a certain level of arm strength, such as horseshoes; or a certain level of mobility, such as badminton.   The nature of these games mean you will have a smaller pool of people able to play.  This, in turn, will leave many people watching from the sidelines and not fully participating in the day’s activities.  This is why bag toss games are the best way to bring families together during your next get-together.

Some people will prefer to keep that natural wood look of the boards.  Even so, these boards will need to be protected from the elements.  On natural wood, any glossy polyurethane should suffice.  Remember to apply multiple coats and to allow ample time between each application.  However, most folks will want to paint there boards to reflect their favorite teams colors or logo.  You are advised to use a basic exterior latex paint.

Whether you are painting a simple pattern, a pyramid shape or racing stripes, the method of painting remains much the same.  Just remember to paint in the same direction, no matter if you’re using a brush or a roller.  Back and forth motions will make your paint coats uneven.  To achieve straight lines, simply use any variety of painters tape.  If you’re using multiple colors, here is a trick to avoid paint bleeding under the tape.  First, paint your base color and allow to dry.  Then apply tape to create your lines and logo.  Before painting with your second color, apply a thin layer of your first paint to the tape edges.  This will completely seal your lines for good.  After painting, apply several coats of Minwax Polycrylic to protect your boards from the elements.  Get playin’!

How do you know if the cornhole company you are buying from actually knows how to make cornhole bags or uses the best fabrics and materials available?  The answer is simple.  If they tell you what supplies they use and back it up with numerous testimonials and a long history in the industry.  A company that tells you what products they utilize and are willing to provide you with pictures of their manufacturing process is a good company.  A stellar cornhole company will gladly inform you that they use only duck canvas fabric and refuse to cut costs by using another cheap fabric.  A company that uses high-end synthetic thread such as nylon or polyester is one you can trust when it comes to quality.

The best cornhole companies use only whole kernel corn and not more affordable options such as cracked corn or bird seed-fillers.  And, last but not least, a cornhole manufacturer who knows what they are doing will invest in, and use, industrial-strength sewing machines to make cornhole bags.  Anything less would be insufficient and completely disrespectful to a customer.

So, here are a few guidelines to follow to be absolutely sure you are buying the right kind of bean bags or corn bags.  First, these bags need to be manufactured using duck canvas fabric.  Duck canvas is very strong and durable and is often used to make hammocks and boat sails.  Stay away from cheap variants such as trigger cloth.

Next, you are advised to buy cornhole bags that are stitched with a UV-resistant, water-resistant thread such as nylon or polyester.  Cotton threads will last a short time and will fray very quickly.  Lastly, bags should be regulation size 6” x 6” and regulation weight 14-16 oz.  Bags should be filled with cleaned, whole kernel corn and not any other sub-standard filler material.

1) Bags utilized in cornhole, bean bag toss, or whatever you call your respective toss game, are lightweight.  Traditional cornhole bags weigh roughly 14-16 oz; that is one pound.  Lightweight bags mean anyone can play regardless of age or arm strength.

2) These bags are basically harmless.  Unlike other backyard games such as horseshoes, these corn-filled bags won’t hurt anyone if they are accidently struck by an errant throw.

3) Bags won’t get covered in grime or rust.  I’m picking on horseshoes again here; but these metal horseshoes are often rusted and dirty.  No one wants to get messy while playing a simple lawn game.

4) Bag games don’t require expensive equipment.  Some yard games will cost you an arm and a leg just to purchase the necessary equipment.  The good news is that quality bags will cost only around $20-30.  Plus, cornhole boards can be made with simple 2” x  4”s and plywood.

5) Most bag tossing games require very little in the way of mobility.  Unlike badminton, volleyball or other lawn sports, tossing games allow you to stand in one spot the whole time.  This is important if it’s 90 degrees out or if you have older participants who wouldn’t be able to play if it required too much mobility.

First, invest in a basic plastic tub with an airtight and watertight lid.  These lids should have a rubber gasket that provide the perfect seal.  Placing your bags in such a tub will keep out all sorts of creepy crawlers as well as the elements; such as humidity.  Every cornhole player, at one time or another, have had their bags destroyed by either insects or rodents looking for a snack.  Remember, corn is a food course and critters of all kinds, especially the dreaded squirrel, love to feast on these bags, destroying them the process.  Keeping your bags stowed away at all times, even during a break from play, is a wise thing to do.

Next, always keep your cornhole bags stored in a cool, dry environment.  Even if they are protected in your plastic tub, it’s still smart to take that extra step and keep ‘em away from any environment factors that can damage them.  Moisture can break down the corn and leave you with a rotting, smelly mess.  A basement is often the best place to keep these corn bags when not is use; given you don’t have a mouse village down there!  If you take the above precautions you can be assured that your bags will last a long time and you won’t have to worry about forking out $30 every few months for new bags.

Corn toss games are fun for everyone, parents and children.  Corn bags are lightweight and harmless.  These bags weigh less than a pound and even if someone makes a poor throw, the bags are not likely to hurt anyone who is accidently struck.  Cornhole boards can be moved closer together to make sure the kids can reach them with their tosses.  Also, cornhole can be set up in numerous places: the grass, a driveway or even in the street; just be careful on that one!  Other tossing games don’t have these advantages.  Arm strength and ability to throw a long distance are not required for the corn toss game.

Kids love this game and will play for hours on end.  You can even set up a cornhole tournament; complete with brackets such as those used in March Madness.  If you’re looking for a great way to bring neighbors together, corn toss is a great option!

A bean ban game consists of tossing one-pound bags onto plywood boards.  These boards have 6-inch holes drilled out of their center.  A bag on the board equals one point; a bag in the hole equals three points.  First player or team to 21 wins.  Traditionally, these bags are filled with whole kernel corn, hence the name cornhole in many parts of the country.  These bags are about as harmless as it gets.  Even if someone makes an errant throw and strikes someone who’s lounging in the sun, it is not going to hurt them.

These lightweight, harmless bean bags make cornhole the most family-friendly of all backyard games.  Your arm strength and mobility are not a factor, as most people of any age can toss these bags the distance required.  The same cannot be said for other lawn games.  Horseshoes are too heavy and cumbersome and require you to have serious arm strength.  Croquet, volleyball or badminton require too much mobility; thus limiting the possible pool of people who can participate.  Bean bag games have none of these limitations and therefore, dominate the backyard sports industry and will continue to do so for a long time.

However, games such as cornhole and other related tossing games are perfect for a tailgating environment.  Cornhole can be played on any surface as long as the boards are adjusted for uneven ground.  Cornhole boards can be moved closer than the traditional 27 feet if space is limited.  Lastly, cornhole bags are about the most injury-proof sporting good out there.  Thousands of people descend on tailgating parties and any object that could seriously hurt someone, a la a metal horseshoe, is a no-no.

Since a game such as cornhole is well-suited for tailgating , it is easy to see why it would become so popular.  Think about it, a college football game might have 100,000 fans in attendance; that is a lot of exposure for the sport and accounts for its rapid growth.  While there are other tailgating games out there that have replaced many traditional sports, it appears cornhole is the most popular at the time.

First, make sure you toss your bags in a manner that doesn’t work against you.  For example, most people who are new to the game will simply toss their cornhole bean bags straight at the boards with absolutely no spin.  But, just like baseball, an object without any spin will automatically knuckle on you.  This bobbing action means the bags will fly any which direction and you will lose significant accuracy.  To avoid this, give your bags a simple spin.  This allows the bags to literally cut through the air and improve accuracy.

Next, toss the bags in a high-arcing manner.  This will increase surface tension with the boards when they strike; thus reducing the chances of the bags flying off the back end of the boards.  Since there are no cornhole rules that dictate how slick boards can be, this is important.  Lastly, toss the bags so that they land on the boards roughly one foot in front of the hole.  Trying to make a basketball-style swish shot is near impossible and should be avoided at all costs.  It is better to simply try to slide the bags into hole for a perfect three points!  If you follow the above instructions you should improve your scores dramatically.

Here are a few simple ways to determine if you are buying the best possible corn hole bags.  First, make sure the bags are made with a strong, high-quality fabric called duck canvas, also know as duck cloth.  This fabric is incredibly durable; in fact, it is so strong it is often used to manufacture boat sails.  Surely, a material that can withstand oceanic winds can certainly handle the game of cornhole.  If the company you are considering buying your bags from refuses to tell you what fabric they use, then run away as fast as you can.  Duck canvas is a must.

Next, make sure your bags are double-stitched, preferably with a synthetic thread such as polyester or nylon.  These threads help repel water and resist UV damage, something that cannot be said for a natural fiber such as cotton.  Bags should be filled with whole kernel corn.  It’s called “corn” hole for a reason!  Lastly, make sure the bags are regulation size and weight; that is 6”x 6” and 14-16 oz.  Follow these guidelines and you can be assured that you have purchased high-quality corn hole bags.
