I have an extra set. Wooden, handmade, very substantial. If you give me the logo I can probably paint it on by hand.
Looks a lot like:

I hand painted the Hurricane's logo and alt. logo (the hurricane eye and the hurricane flag) on my boards. Let me know if you end of getting a set and need them painted and send me the logo. I can probably handle it. I can also sew some bags from duckcloth if you let me know the color for $20. My handsewn bags are regulation and have been through two years with no busted bags.
Here they are:

^not trying to be negative, just be wary of decals for cornhole boards. If they're just applied on top, after awhile, they start to peel off as the bags try to work them off during use. Most people use a polyurethane (or similar finish) over decalse to create a smooth surface and protect the decals, but I've seen a lot of sets where this makes the boards WAY too slick.
I'd recommend hand painting, and don't be afraid to try yourself. Just print out your graphic and trace it on the board using transfer paper and then paint by numbers.
And ^^^ look really good, nice work. 8/9/2010 9:33:02 AM |

mine work perfectly. i covered the paint and decals with a product called min-wax, which is water based. it's not too slick at all. maybe the oil based stuff is worse or something. besides how do you protect your artwork if you don't put some kind of clear coat on there?8/9/2010 9:48:36 AM |
