Different Bags, Different Bag Speeds
One of the most asked questions when it comes to cornhole bags is how fast or slow are they? Not sure why every bag maker does not have cornhole bag speed scales but unfortunately that is the case. Many of them do or have wised up and created them recently. But the days of just buy the bags and try them are pretty much over.
With so many different bags on the market, we look to those with speed scales to give us the info we desperately seek before dropping our hard earned money on a set of bags we might not even like or that might not fit our playing style. Or, we just wait til our friends spend the money and try their bags.
I think the first step in choosing the right bag for you is determining if you like a traditional slick and stick bag or seek the speed of a fast and faster bag. So, we have taken the time to scour the internet and manufactures websites to bring you all the cornhole bag speed scales we have found.
The scales below will give you information about how fast or slow each side of the bag is and some even give you a flop or flex rating which is used to determine how easily it will drop in the hole when it gets near. We have them here in one central location so you don’t have to search and hunt for them. And as manufacturers create or add to them, we hope they will see the value in this post and send them to us.

The Cornhole Bag Speed Scales
We decided to do away with the individual speed scales and create our own spreadsheet of different manufacturers bags so you can see all the bags in one place and compare. As bag makers give us their info, we will add them to the sheet and updated it. Our list below is currently over 70+ bag makers with a total of 480+ bag series!!
***Please use this list below as a reference only***
There are many different factors that will effect bag speeds such as weather conditions, different cornhole boards, cornhole bag materials and new bags versus broken in bags are some that we can come up with. No one will ever be able to come up with the perfect exact speed of a bag. It’s just not possible! And not every bag with a rating of 4 and 7 will play the same. Different materials play differently.
