Our pick

AllCornhole GameChanger Cornhole Bags
We can see why both pros and casual players love the GameChangers: They feel great and throw nicely, and the dual-textured surface helps them hit the target more often than any other bags we tested.
Buying Options
*At the time of publishing, the price was $90.
Players sometimes decry the AllCornhole GameChanger Cornhole Bags as “cheater bags” because of their unusual patch feature, which combines a slick, polyester-based upholstery fabric on the edges (so the bag can slide into the hole) with a rougher suede patch in the bag’s center (to help it stick in place when it lands). The GameChanger is one of the most popular bags among professionals and a favorite of our test panel of amateurs, and we can see why: This regulation-size bag is loosely filled with plastic beads that give it an almost liquid-like feel and make it a pleasure to hold. We hit our target more often with this bag, too.
Budget pick

SC Cornhole Games Weather Resistant Cornhole Bags
If you play cornhole only a few times a year, these inexpensive bags are fun, but they’re harder to control than their pricey pro counterparts.
Buying Options
*At the time of publishing, the price was $27.
If you play cornhole just a few times a year and can’t stomach the idea of spending close to $100 on gear for a yard game, we think SC Cornhole Games’s Weather Resistant Cornhole Bags represent a good compromise. Made from duck canvas with a plastic pellet filling, they look and feel like the bags most people learn the game on. They’re also a regulation size and weight. However, our test panelists consistently preferred the better control they had with the professional bags we tried.

AllCornhole Tournament Series Cornhole Boards
Unlike lighter, portable options, this board minimizes bounce and lets bags slide, allowing you to play more consistently.
Buying Options
*At the time of publishing, the price was $200.
Building or investing in a quality cornhole board is essential for achieving consistent and fun play. A heavy, wood board is the better choice over lighter, more portable options because it minimizes bounce and allows bags to slide more easily instead of ricocheting off the board’s surface. We like AllCornhole’s Tournament Series Cornhole Boards because they are regulation size, made from birch with a smooth finish, and built with cross beams to minimize bounce. They’re also used by professionals at the national championship of the American Cornhole League (ACL).
