Breakdown on Different Sizes and Construction 
 
The pricing offered initially is for our standard ACA Regulation Sized boards. However, we do offer other construction and sizes as well as material.  We offer the following:
Sizes
  • Regulation Size: 2' by 4' Surface Area
  • Travel Size: 2' by 3' Surface Area 
    • not available in Aluminum Construction
  • Kids Size: 1' by 2' Surface Area
    • not available in 2x4 or Aluminum construction
Construction

    • only available in Regulation Size  
  • All-Weather PVC: 100% All Weather PVC ¾ inch Frame,  Leg and Brace with a ½ inch Top 
    • with adequate care, these will last 1-2 years left outside in the weather elements
  • All-Weather Marine Grade: 100% All Weather Marine Grade Plastic ¾ inch Frame, Legs and Brace with a ½ inch Top
    •  with adequate care, they can last 3-5 years left outside in the weather elements.

The all-weather options allow for the boards to be left outside and the longevity of the all-weather construction is longer than our standard wood style. They do have varying time frames though as stated beside them. If you would like to choose one of those options, the pricing would change. 
 
WHAT TYPE OF WOOD IS USED FOR THE CORNHOLE BOARDS?

We use half inch cabinet grade birch plywood for the tops and premium spruce 2x4's for the frames and legs.

 


 

DO THE LEGS FOLD OUT?

Yes, they do. This allows for easy storage as well as set up. 

 


 

WHERE DO I FIND MY TRACKING INFORMATION?

Must have an account with us for easy access. When signed in to your account, click on "My Orders", then please click on the order number you would like to check on. This will populate a new window, in which you can scroll towards the bottom to grab the tracking information. We use FedEx. 


 

WHAT TYPE OF PAINT DO YOU USE?

We use Semi-Gloss Exterior Latex paint by Glidden (which has all licensed colors for every pro team) to paint our boards.

 


 

DO YOUR BOARDS HAVE A PROTECTIVE COAT?

After finishing the boards, we apply a Semi-Gloss Water-Based Polyurethane sealant.

 


 

WHAT ARE YOUR BAGS MADE OF?

We use 10.0 oz Duck cloth for the outside of the bags, and fill them with 15 - 16oz of whole corn. Upgrades are available for bag type and filling material at an extra cost.

 


 

IS THERE A DIFFERENCE IN PLAYABILITY IN PAINTED BOARDS AND GRAPHIC BOARDS?

The process and materials we use to produce both the painted and graphic sets result in NO DIFFERENCE between the playability of either board. 

 


 

ARE THE BOARDS WATERPROOF?

No, they are not. However, upgrading the boards to All Weather PVC, at an additional cost, will allow them to be left outside in all types of weather elements.

 


 

CAN YOU APPLY GRAPHICS TO THE PVC ALL WEATHER CORNHOLE BOARDS?

Yes, they can be applied. The graphics on the All Weather PVC Cornhole Boards have been proven to last for 1 year outside in the elements with adequate care.

 


 

HOW DO YOU RECOMMEND TO FINISH THE UNFINISHED CORNHOLE BOARDS? 

We advise finishing your boards with a Water-Based Polyurethane sealant or Exterior Semi-Gloss Latex paint. Neither finish will affect playability, and will allow you to get creative with your boards. Additionally, adding a layer of the polyurethane sealant over the dried paint will increase the longevity and durability of the paint.

 


 

WHAT ARE THE DIMENSIONS OF THE BOARDS?

Please contact us if your shipping address is outside of these limits for a free shipping cost quote. 

 


 

HOW MUCH DO THE CORNHOLE BOARDS WEIGH? 

Our Regulation ACA Size Wood Series Cornhole Board weighs 20 lbs. on average. 

 

Our Regulation ACA Size Lightweight Series Cornhole Board weighs 15 lbs on average. 

 

Our Regulation ACA Size All Weather PVC Series Cornhole Board weighs 15 lbs on average. 

 

Our Regulation ACA Size All Weather Marine Grade Plastic Series Cornhole Board weighs 35 lbs on average.

Our Shorty Travel Size Cornhole Board of any series weighs approximately 30% less. 

 

Our Kids Size Cornhole Board of any series weighs approximately 50% less. 

 


 

HOW ARE THE TOPS PLACED ON THE BOARDS? 

The tops are glued and nailed onto the frames of the boards. 

 


 

HOW LONG IS THE PROCESS FOR A CUSTOMIZED PRODUCT? 

After purchase and all design requests are submitted, it takes about 1-5 business days to receive a mock-up of the order.  Once approval is received, production takes 1-3 business days on average. And depending on your location relative to our store, delivery takes 1-6 business days. Check out our Shipping Time Frame Map for more information!

 

***The time frames previously mentioned may increase due to the intricacy of an order, as well as quantity. The processing time at check-out will not be as stated for Custom Orders. If you have a deadline to meet, then please reach out to us for confirmation on whether we can complete your order within the given time frame as well as how to complete the purchase to minimize delays. 


WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN REGULAR BAGS AND PROSTYLE FAST N SLOW BAGS?  

The main difference is in the construction of the bags. Our regular bags are solely made out of 10.0 oz Duck Canvas. The Prostyle Fast N Slow bags are two-sided; one side is our 10.0 oz Duck canvas, while the other side is a faux suede material. The two-sidedness allows for control over how fast the bag slides. 

 


 

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CORN-FILLED AND ALL-WEATHER FILLED BAGS? 

The difference in filling impacts durability. Corn-Filled bags are filled with real whole corn, which may need to be replaced within 6-12 months of purchase. The All-Weather Filled bags are filled with resin material that will last 2-3 times longer as it resists humidity and can be reused even if wet (unlike corn-filled bags that cannot be wet). 

 


 

WHAT ARE THE SUPPORT BRACES? ARE THEY THE SAME AS THE LEGS? 

The support braces are an additional section of the construction chosen for the boards. They are NOT the same as the legs. These are added underneath the board or to the legs to join them, which adds longevity to the stability of the boards and the legs. The brace underneath the board also helps prevent bowing, which may occur in wood over long periods of time. 

 


 

WHAT IS EXPEDITED PROCESSING? 

Expedited processing minimizes the amount of processing time for an order. Your order is shipped out either next business day after purchase, or same business day if purchased before 2:00 PM EST Monday-Friday. Delivery would still be 1-6 business days depending on your location relative to us. 

 


 

 

WHAT ARE THE DURABILITY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT MATERIAL CONRNHOLE BOARDS OFFERED?

Below are the approximate longevity of each type of cornhole board WITH ADEQUATE CARE

Wood series: 1 to 2 years.

PVC series: 3 to 5 years.

Marine Grade series: 5 to 8 years.

Aluminum series: 8 to 10 years.

Shipping Time 

We have a 99% shipping satisfaction rate. We ship our Regulation ACA 2x4 Surface Cornhole Boards in an innovative, high quality, 49x26x9in cardboard box, in which corner protectors are built into the packaging to prevent the corners of the cornhole boards from getting damaged. We separate finished boards with two layers of foam to prevent damage of the surface of the cornhole boards during transit. The package on average weighs between 60 - 65 pounds. It will weigh more pending the addition of accessories or upgrades to the construction of the board.  

 

We use FedEx to ship out our products. If a board is damaged by the courier, then please reach out to us via email with images and an order number. We will make a case by case decision on how we will handle the situation. Please refer to the Returns and Damages Policy page. 

 

Processing times can vary.  In the months of January - April and August - Mid November,  we typically have a 1-3 business day processing time window for products without customization. From May - July and Mid November - December,  we strive to stay within 3-5 business day processing time for orders without customization, but due to an influx of sales during those times it is not always possible.  Please add 1-7 days for transit time to your location. Please contact us if you have a deadline prior to placing your order. 

 

We do offer the option to expedite processing time at an additional cost. Next Business Day Expedited Processing means that your order will be shipped out the next business day (weekends or holidays are not considered business days) and will be delivered within 1-7 days after depending on your location relative to us. Same Business Day Expedited Processing means we will ship out your order the same business day if purchased before 12:00 PM EST and it will be delivered within 1-7 days after depending on your location relative to us. This option is also possible for customized products, but is dependent on approval date instead of purchase date.
