I Am Going To Build A Corn Hole Set, Need Advice

Anyone ever built a set of corn hole boards???

I am going to make Panthers themed boards.

I have looked at a couple of plans to make them. And I have also looked at a couple different designs by people who build them to sell. I am pretty good with woodworking, and have all of the tools to do the job.

I will use this on the beach probably every weekend, Here are some things that I am planing on doing, a little different...

I am going to use 2x3s instead of 2x4s for the base. It will make it alot lighter, and easy to carry.

I am also going with 1/2 plywood as opposed to 3/4, again for the weight issue.

I am going to use only stainless steel on all bolts, screws, nails, etc....(will help it stay together longer, due to the salt water.)

I have heard that if you use decals, they will start to wear down overtime. I may decide to use decals, then poly urethane over top of it. I am not the best artist, so painting the panthers logo would not come out well! Anyone know of a stencile pattern?

My real question is with the bean bags. I would like to get some with designs. I have googled them, haven't seen any designs I like. I would prefer to get the new logo, but it will probably take a while for that material to hit the shelves. I would like to also get high quality ones too, something that can withstand abuse, sand, salt water, etc... I guess my best bet will probably be ordering offline.

Anyone have experience building them, to offer pointers? Or can someone suggest a good website for some HQ bean bags at a cheaper price?

TL;DR = building Panther boards, does anyone have ideas for the design I should put on there? Anyone know of a good website for bean bags?

Thanks

I'm not an expert but wouldn't the 1/2 plywood make the bags bounce more.

I played on a set this weekend that was 1/2, with the 2x3s as a base, and they were not too bouncy. I think if you use 1x4s, them it's bouncy

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
