![]() ![]() ![]() You’ll want to pinch the bag in the corner using both your index finger and thumb. You would use the same technique in cornhole. When you throw a frisbee, your body is turned sideways, and you release the frisbee sideways. The frisbee toss is another obvious release and position. With a sling toss you simply bring your throwing hand back behind your body, then sling the bag back towards the board. If you release the bag from your hand correctly, you can even manage to get a back spin to the bag. When I started playing cornhole, I personally use the sling toss. I wanted to provide a little bit of context to the bag itself before explaining why your throw is important.Īnd, for you to understand that each bag, especially in Pro bags, is built for a different purpose. I’ll discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each type of filler material in another article. There are many makers, especially those who produce ACL, TCL, or ACO cornhole bags who use resin. That’s how you can purchase a set ofĮight bags at a relatively cheap price point. When I hand over a new set of boards and bags to a customer, I always start by asking this question: “Have you ever played with dual-sided bags before?” Nine times out of ten the answer to that question is “No.” A lot of board builders out there sell a bag that’s made entirely of duck canvas, and at times, even filled with actual corn. These two materials play very differently. What I mean by that is you might be holding a bag that is one side suede and one side duck canvas. It’s often the case with Pro bags that there are different types of materials being used. The material that your cornhole bags are made from is important as well. In a separate article I will discuss the various materials. You may elect to use one, or multiple, tosses within a match to achieve your desired outcome. Those five tossing techniques are known as the sling toss, frisbee toss, overhand toss, jump toss, and fold over toss. As a matter of fact, there are five different tossing techniques you can utilize in the game of cornhole. I believe there is a misconception about tossing, and that is that players uniformly have the same toss. You can decide to drop a large amount of money on pro bags, but that doesn’t amount to much if you have don’t know how to throw them. What’s the most important aspect when it comes to the sport of cornhole? I would argue that your tossing technique is the most important aspect to a successful match. They just want to throw corn bags into the hole. Those who are not familiar with the cornhole organizations or truly don’t care. The men, women and children who are still playing the game as it originated. When we talk about cornhole and tossing technique, we are usually referring to what the sport has become today and rarely focus on the fact that there are still many people around the world who toss duck canvas bags and never heard of or used double sided pro bags. ![]()
