Boosting confidence in cornhole (or any other activity) involves a mix of mental preparation, physical practice, and strategic focus. Here are some key strategies to build and boost confidence so you can perform well: 1. Master the Fundamentals - Grip and Stance : Focus on developing a consistent grip and stance that feels natural. - Throw Technique : Practice your release, aiming for a smooth, controlled arc. Watch videos or get coaching to refine your form. - Repetition : Repeatedly practicing the same motion builds muscle memory, which is crucial for consistency. 2. Focus on Accuracy Over Power - Aiming for the board (rather than just the hole) is a more achievable target initially.

Picture a smaller version of a dart board with only 6 numbers and instead of being mounted on a wall, it sits on the floor like a cornhole board .

Footwork is Essential to Achieving Consistency

Being a great cornhole player is about consistency. Constantly performing the same motion over and over to achieve the same result of putting the bag in the hole. We have quite an extensive archive of blogs that discuss the different elements of the game to help make you a better player. This one talks about your footwork which is an essential part of your throw. Do you or should you step or not? This past weekend, Dickey and I attended a fundraiser tournament for a local fire department. Actually, Dickey was running the thing. It was held in an empty warehouse, a huge space that was capable of having 50 or more sets of boards. One problem though, it was 95 degrees outside which equates to about 115 degrees inside. With very little ventilation and zero air flow (aside from the 2 fans at the scorers table). To say the conditions were brutal is an understatement. We’ve played in rain, 40 mph winds and blazing sun, but I dare say these conditions were the worst I’ve ever played in. We dec...
