a ground bag where the ground bag can be removed without
making the hanging bag fall to the ground, then one point is
given.

whether a cornhole bag would have naturally fallen through the
hole, a player may request to “rake” the cornhole bags that have
fallen inside the hole.
6. Each team is given a frame score according to the point system
