So, you're ready to toss some bags and claim cornhole glory? Awesome! But before you start flinging, you need to know the golden rule: **how far apart are cornhole boards, exactly?**
For regulation play, the front edges of the cornhole boards should be **27 feet** apart. That's measured from the very front edge of one board to the very front edge of the other. Think of it as roughly the length of a small car and a half!
But what about backyard fun? While the official distance is 27 feet, don't be afraid to shorten it for kids or casual games. Even 20 feet can be a blast!
Ultimately, the perfect distance depends on skill level and available space. Just remember, consistent distance is key to improving your game. Now get out there and toss those bags!
