You're playing regular bags here, just put them the standard distance.

Directions

How to Start

Players alternate throws trying to get their bag in the hole. 3 points if it goes in the hole, 1 point if it lands on the board.

Again, this is just like regular bags so far.

Each Turn, The Bomber Bag

Players choose one bag in their hand and say "bomber bag" out loud before they throw the bag. If that bag goes in the hole, they win the game. The opposing team can retaliate if they have not thrown their bomber bag yet.

End of Game

The first player or team to 11 points, or the first to be the only bomber bag in the hole, is the winner.

Keys to Winning

  1. Get as many bags in the hole each round. I thought… I kind of thought that was pretty obvious.
  2. Don't be the person who screams "Bomber Bag" on their first. bag. every. time.
  3. Save your bomber bag for the later throws per round.
