American Cornhole
Cornhole by Planet Finska. A massively popular American “bag chuck” game in which players take turns to toss bean bags at an inclined platform with a 15cm hole near the top. Cornhole is massively popular in the USA and regularly played as a “tailgate” game at barbecues before major sporting events. There is even an American Cornhole League televised on Foxsports.
In each round players toss 4 bags and score 1 point for each bag that lands on the board and 3 points for each bag that drops through the hole. The player with the highest score in the round adds the number of points they scored less the number of points their opponents scored to their game tally. e.g. If a player lands 3 bags in the hole and one on the board for a round score of 10 and their opponent lands 2 bags in the hole and 2 on the board for a round score of 8, the first player adds 2 points to their game tally before commencing the next round. If both players score the same number of points in a single round, neither player will add any points to their game tally for that round. First to reach total of 21 points over multiple rounds wins.
Our STANDARD boards are the same width but three quarters of the length of regulation or competition sized boards used in American Cornhole tournaments. They measure 0.9m x 0.6m. The back of the board is raised to an official playing height of 30cm via folding rear birch support. One of the key issues with other compact boards is that the boards are either too steep or the back of the board is dropped to a height that is below the regulation 30cm to preserve the correct slope of the board. Our boards have neither of these compromises. Unlike other three quarter length Cornhole boards, our standard sets have small leg supports at the front of the board so that the slope as well as the front and rear height of the board is identical to a full length competition board.
Our premium Cornhole sets are crafted with a beautiful birchwood frame and poplar plywood playing surface which has been finished in a clear varnish. Unlike basic or cheaper cornhole boards, our design is such that the playing surface is neatly recessed into the frame for a neater premium look and enhanced durability. Each board also has a chunky hemp rope handle for transport.
Single Board sets come with a single three quarter length Cornhole board and 8 heavy duty canvas Cornhole bags – 4 black and 4 khaki. The board also has a neat storage drawer underneath for storing the bags when not in use. The Cornhole bags comply with American Cornhole Association size and weight requirements and weigh 450g each.
Traditional double board sets are also available so players can play end to end without having to walk back to the throwing mark at the end of each round. We also have full length “Competition” sized Cornhole available as either a single board or double board set.
