Does anyone have their own Cornhole (Bean Bag Toss) game that they made from scratch or have any recommendations on where to buy one.
I am considering making one from scratch and was wondering if anyone had some good suggestions.

I made my own with the new logo. Here are some pictures.

PS - Do you have some lovely custom embroidered bean bags to go along with those?

Well, if you don't have the carpentry/design of Big12Cy, you can get them at Scheel's. They still have the old logo.

I also used this sight for tips on building them, so it might help you as well. Iowa State Cornhole Boards Pics Official boards I see! Very nice. I've contemplated making my own for some time, but just never gotten around to it. Parents bought the ones at Scheels, so it kind of haulted the attempt. I will say that even those are very sub-par and not worth the money.

I read through the posts in the above link, and you mention that you use graphics for the logo's and names. How do you like an attached graphic logo for the top of your board. I was afraid that it would become a "catch" for the bags.

no matter which way you decide to go, put nets under the holes. that way you know for sure what bags went in the hole and their will be know arguments. at the end of a long tailgate it somtimes gets hard to tell what went in. i know from experience.

Did you put the logos on and then a protective coating (polyurethane) over them? Or did you just apply the logos over the sealant? If the latter, do you think the logos will wear over time?
However, not sure if you can seal over the logos.

if you want the best then go here www.americancornhole.com
If you decide to make your own then skip the plywood. It doesn't slide like it is supposed to.
