Cornhole how good is good

I’m a backyard Cornhole player. I been told I’m better that some that compete in tournaments. I have never seen a Cornhole event so I have no idea how good those player are.

For those who have played in a Cornhole Tournament how did you do?

How good are some of those players?

What are some stats (in the hole per 10 bag toss) that would make someone a contender?

Cornhole might be the worst name for a game ever, sounds like you're going to an ass fucking event. I've only recently learned what cornhole (the game) is from my friends in the mid west.

Definitely only a midwestern thing..I asked a New Yorker teh other day if he knew what cornhole was and I'm pretty sure he thought if I was asking him if I could put it in his ass.

Agree. I have to hold back a smirk every time someone says they want to play cornhole.

If you only recently learned about the game, doesn't that imply that you have been ass fucking for a while? Lol

Cornhole is a fine name. Especially because that's the game: you thrown corn[bags] into a hole.

Other places call it "bag-o" or some other stupid names. It's Cincy's finest creation!

Here are some tournaments.
Here are THE best quality boards, bags, and such that money can buy.

It's a fun backyard game. I like a little bocce along with it.

Depends on how willing she is. Not sure about in the backyard, the house has more privacy. Always use some sort of lube, especially for first timers and if you want “back in” sometime in the future.

I am monogamous, so I’ve never played in a tournament. I have seen what might be referred to cornhole tournament on a website. Pretty good players there.

Same for me. As for skill, I'm pretty much the same with anything like that or darts. Sometimes I'm really good. Sometimes I suck and can't hit anything. Things can change from one to the other with no warning.

Belly, to answer your questions, I would guess the really good players make 7-8 out of 10 in the hole.

I was born in and raised in Illinois (up until 8th grade). The first time I went back and asked some old friends and cousins if they played cornhole, I got laughed at. They had it there, they just call it "bags."

LOL, I had the volume down at work when I first watched.

"He nailed the Ménage à trois of cornhole, that was pretty impressive".

ghey.



Terminology
"Two Bagger" is a toss where a player gets two cornholes in one throw. This usually occurs by knocking in a bag that was already hanging over the hole.
"Air Mail" is a toss where a player tosses over a pile of bags blocking the hole in hopes of getting a cornhole.
"Ménage à Trois" is when a player knocks in one of their bag and two bags of their opponent, or two of theirs and one of their opponents.
"Woodie" is a term for a bag that lands on the board.
"Cornhole" means a bag in the hole.

Can't believe there were that many people there to watch people toss bags in a hole and also can't believe that it was broadcast on television. SMH

Cornhole is amazing and one of the best drinking games. If you don't agree then you can fuck off.

Cornhole is a terrible name. When are they going to come up with a sister game called "TeaBag?"
