Hole Only Box

Here are some specs for a Hole Only style box.   This would be similar to the “Air Mail” style of box that is commonly seen lately at tournaments.   Place the Cornhole Box approx. 30 feet from the thowing mark.  This would simulate the distance where the hole would be if normal boards were placed 27 feet apart.

These instructions are currently untested, but should work.

Materials:

  • The material used is 1/2″ or 3/4″ plywood

  • Base: 20 1/2″ square
  • Hole:  The hole has to be 6″ in diameter, as is standard for any Cornhole board.

  • The slant sits at a roughly 13-13.5 degree angle.
