Cornhole Bags

Choose by fill type and fabric: synthetic/polypropylene-filled bags slide more and are durable for outdoor play; natural corn or resin-filled bags offer more grip for indoor or competitive play. Also consider bag weight (typically 14-16 oz for regulation play), edge stitch vs. box stitch for feel, and whether you prefer a looser bag for sliding or a firmer bag for blocking and lofted shots

Regulation cornhole bags are roughly 6x6 inches and weigh between 14 and 16 ounces. Tournament leagues often require bags to meet this size and weight range for official play

Cornhole bag prices vary; many options fall under $50 for a set, with higher-end or specialty bags costing more. Budget sets under $50 can be suitable for casual backyard play, while competitive players may invest in pricier, consistent bags

Look for heavy-duty polyester, canvas, or duck cloth fabrics and reinforced stitching like double or box stitches at seams. For outdoor durability, seek water-resistant fabric and strong fill containment; synthetic fills resist moisture and mold better than natural corn

Spot-clean fabric bags with mild soap and water and air dry; avoid machine washing unless manufacturer says it's safe. Store bags in a dry, ventilated place to prevent mold or mildew, and replace or repair bags with torn seams or leaking fill

Yes: outdoor bags are often made with tougher, water-resistant fabrics and synthetic fills for weather resistance and consistent play on vinyl or plywood boards; indoor/competitive bags typically use finer fabrics and might use corn or resin fills for better grip

Most tournaments require regulation-size and weight bags that meet their specific material and construction rules. Check the league or tournament rules before using non-regulation bags, as they may be disallowed in official play
