OK this posting has the photos. We just had a discussion about copyrights and hope you pay attention if selling these. Looks good even though I have no idea what it is. 

Easiest way to explain.

It is a bean bag game played with 2 teams of 2 to a score of 21. One bag on the board is 1 point, one in the hole is 3 points. Points cancel each other out if matched on the toss.

A game, somewhat similar in concept to horseshoes.  The bean bags are traditionally filled with dried corn kernels, hence the name.  Very popular game for family picnics, etc.  There is even a pro league.  Sometimes ESPN will carry their tournaments.  It's kind of the American answer to Curling.

I am familiar with horseshoes and use to be pretty good at it. So I get the concept now. Thanks. I still like Lawn Darts. Too bad they do not sell any more. Dumb people. 😀

From what I am told, my uncle invented the lawn darts. I remember going over there and sneaking in his garage and seeing all the different prototypes on his workbench.

Great looking boards.. I've always wanted to try my hand at making some of these.. just never have..

My Father and Brother in law play something similar but it's with big washers.. and instead of a slick smooth painted board they use a non slip coating to hold the washers.. Always looked forward to playing that when we go to Texas to visit them.. Last time we was there he built me a set to practice with so I could beat them at it when I come back.. I haven't been practicing and never when back either, LOL  They were good at it and was on tournaments etc..

The boards are easy to make.  The painting (depending on artwork) is the pain.  You can find dimensions on line. 

2ft x 4ft face,  6 inch hole,  9 inches down from the top.  2x4 boards for the body and legs.  The incline of the board is 12 inches to the top of the board,

I am not a sports fan at all. I just do it for family. I Dont sell sports themed boards because of the copyrights. And you can get the bags online .
