What are the Best Cornhole Boards?

Are you ready to embrace the cornhole lifestyle?  Do you need to upgrade your game set?  No matter where you are on the spectrum of cornhole love, everyone wants to know the same thing: what are the best cornhole boards?

Defining the Word “Best”

Unfortunately, there isn’t a simple answer to the question what are the best cornhole boards.

The phrase “best” is subjective.  However, there are some tips we can give you to help narrow down your definition and determine what is right for you.

Cheap Cornhole Boards

Maybe the best set of cornhole boards is whatever is cheapest.  It should be noted, though, that just because boards are cheap doesn’t mean they aren’t high quality.  In most cases, cheap just means simple.

If you are looking for cheap cornhole boards, you probably have two options.  First, you can make your own set of boards.  This, technically, is cheap – if you have the necessary tools.

The other option is to buy an unpainted set of boards (these usually come with cheap cornhole bags too).  This route is cost effective because you’ll be doing most of the time consuming (AKA – expensive) work yourself – painting the boards.

Custom Cornhole Boards

Other people think the best type of boards are the ones that have custom designs.  Basically, if you can dream it, a professional can do it.  Therefore, you can score custom cornhole boards with just about any design under the sun.

The most popular custom designs often include:

• A reference to family or the owner’s initials
• College cornhole boards with the team mascot and/or colors
• The logo of an organization the owner is a member of
• A business logo (usually used for marketing)
• Patriotic influences
• A reference to the owner’s passion – hunting, motorcycles, etc.

Plastic or Weather Proof Boards

Some cornhole players are pretty die-hard.  That means they need to be prepared to play in any weather condition.  In these instances, the best cornhole boards are usually constructed of plastic or some other water-proof product.

Boards That Offer a Challenge

If you’ve mastered the art of cornhole play with traditional boards and bags, you might be interested in something new.  Some players opt for small practice boards.  Not only do these offer a new and unique challenge, they are also cheap cornhole boards.

These boards might be considered the best because they are small and easy to store.  They also make a good, cheap cornhole set for kids.

In the end, the best cornhole boards are whatever suit your purpose best.
