koehler788 Posted May 25, 2019 Report Posted May 25, 2019 Another project with my other son. Just a cornhole set hand painted by myself and middle son. I built and stenciled the boards. He did a decent job, (I have a lot of cleanup painting to do) frankorona, keefie, Loskoppie and 5 others 8 Quote
wombatie Posted May 26, 2019 Report Posted May 26, 2019 I'm not sure what a cornhole board actually does or is, but they look good. Excellent painting. Marg John B 1 Quote

John B Posted May 26, 2019 Report Posted May 26, 2019 Nice job on the painting. I'm one up on Marg and Steve, only because I saw some being used in a movie a while ago and googled to fine out how the game was played. Quote
lew Posted May 26, 2019 Report Posted May 26, 2019 Nice work! I would have loved to have this....when I lived in Baltimore!!! Born and raised.....big Colts fan then! Quote
koehler788 Posted May 26, 2019 Author Report Posted May 26, 2019 I am sorry for not explaining the boards. It is a game played with 2 - 2ft x 4ft boards and 8 - 1 pound weighted bags filled with dried corn. (They use corn in the bags because it will break down and add dust to the boards). The spacing between the holes is 30ft and you play with 2 teams of 2. Each team alternates throws behing the front of the board, and whoever gets a score of 21 first wins. Each bag on the board counts as 1 point. Each bag in the hole counts as 3 points. All points are cancelled if other team matches points. This game is played by a lit of people here in the states during holidays and football games. In other words - buy drunk people. I hope this helps somewhat for those who do not know.

Never played corn hole growing up in Minnesota. Horseshoes was the go to game for us. Played by the same type of people. Drunk and drinking. lol Quote
Rockytime Posted May 26, 2019 Report Posted May 26, 2019 Good job, they look great and the painting does too. Quote
JimErn Posted May 27, 2019 Report Posted May 27, 2019 We do the same game but on a smaller scale with large washers, as well as horseshoes. Nice work John B 1 Quote

JimErn Posted May 27, 2019 Report Posted May 27, 2019 No pics of it sorry, it is just something so common never thought to take a pic very very crude drawing attached, the red is supposed to be a hole approx 2x diameter of the washer you use, of course the smaller the hole more difficult it is Quote
