p.s. if anyone needs a custom set of regulation cornhole boards and bags hit me up through pm. I make competition grade sets.


Mark what are they? :thinking: cornhole boards and bags .

Finn.
Cornhole aka, hillbilly horseshoes, aka baggo.Check it out here: http://www.playcornhole.org

It's a game played with two boards at opposite ends, two teams or individuals, throwing 6" square bags filled with cornfeed at the boards which have a 6" hole in them for scoring. Way more fun then horseshoes and nobody gets hurt.Here's a custom set:

Finn,
Seems to be an American original. The legend goes it started in southern Ohio/Kentucky area.It's a great camping/backyard/tailgating game and can be homebuilt, like everything else. The kids even play. Great beer drinking game ,too. I limit the kids to one beer each, however. LOL. j/k

We play Polish Horseshoes, or Norweginan or Ladder Golf. Has a lot of different names. I call it Dingle Balls.
