Corn Hole Bags – A Buyer’s Guide

Posted by in Sports and Games

If you’ve played the game of corn hole at all, then you know how vital is to have the right kind of corn hole bags.  Buying subpar-quality bags is a true disappointment and can ruin the experience of an otherwise fun game.  Don’t get pushed into buying some cheap bags from some guy working out of his garage.  Here are some quick tips to buying high-quality corn hole bags.

Make sure the bags are regulation size and weight.  Bags should be 6” x 6” and weigh 14-16 oz.  The fabric is vitally important if you want your bags to last more than a few weeks.  Be sure to buy bags that are made with a premium duck cloth.   This is a very resilient material and can take a beating.  You are advised to purchase corn hole bags made of real whole kernel corn; any other filler material is substandard and will breakdown easily.  Lastly, it is helpful to buy bags stitched with industrial nylon thread; this too will improve the longevity of your bags.
