There are many different types of Cornhole bags available on the market today. There are even more options when you start looking at professional Cornhole bags. It can be difficult to find the perfect set for your game, but don't worry! We're here to help. Below is a list of four things that you should consider before buying your next set of cornhole bags:
Cornhole Bag Components
The Material: Cornhole bags come in a variety of materials. You can find bags made from leather, vinyl, cotton twill, and polyester just to name a few. The most common material for Cornhole bags was originally duck cloth. This heavy-duty fabric is perfect for playing outdoors because it's durable and weather resistant. Today professional cornhole bags consist of suede, polysynthetic blends of materials, and carpet to name a few!
The Weight: The weight of cornhole bags for professional use is 16oz. Standardized weighting of bags creates an even playing field for all players regardless of skill. When you show up for a sanctioned tournament or league play you will be competing against players with similar cornhole bags allowing all players to compete evenly no matter what manufacturer their bags were made by.
The Size: Cornhole bag size is 6" in square. This size was chosen to create the perfect hole to sink your cornhole bags. The dimensions of a cornhole board are 48" long by 24" wide. Fill of the bags determines the feel of the bags in your hand. The more full the bags are using larger pellets creates a firmer feeling bag, while smaller resin will create a slimmer profile bag allowing bags to slip in the hole easier.
The Design: With so much uniqueness and character qualities that each player posses, there are multitudes of designs, colors and patterns available for your cornhole bags. If you don't see a design you already like for sale, you can also customize your own set of bags with your logo, or league colors, etc. In conclusion, while we at Dirty Bags Cornhole offer several types, speeds, fullness, and designs, don't forget that we also offer customization options for all of our bags.
