Cornhole

Cornhole boards and bags — regulation spec, fill types, and surface that matters.

Regulation cornhole is a 24×48 inch board at a specific pitch with a 6-inch hole, and a 6-ounce bag. The difference between cheap and playable equipment comes down to board surface flatness, leg stability, and bag fill consistency. This guide covers the specs that determine whether you're playing the same game at every backyard.

Guides

Regulation dimensions, board surface materials, bag fill (resin vs corn), slick/stick sides, and what competitive leagues actually require.

Buying guide How to choose cornhole boards and bags: regulation size, surface materials, and bag fill ACL regulation spec: 24×48 inch boards, 3/4-inch plywood, 6-inch hole, 2.5–4 inch leg height. Resin vs corn fill bags, slick vs stick sides, and all-weather fabrics for outdoor use.

Why this page exists

Cornhole equipment ranges from $30 tailgate sets with warped OSB surfaces to $200+ competition boards with tournament-spec plywood and precision bag sets. Most content online doesn't explain why the surface material matters for play, or why the bag fill affects your entire strategy.

The surface determines whether your bags slide or stick. The fill determines how the bag distributes on impact and how consistent it is at 27 feet. Get those two specs right and the board dimensions and leg design follow logically.
