Rollors : A Game of Skill and Chance

It’s great when a new game comes along that is both unique and fun. Rollors is just that! Rollors is an all ages game that can be played with 2 to 6 players. Rollors is played with small rounded discs, that are rolled toward one of two cone shaped goals. The discs, or Rollors, are rolled vertically, in a bowling motion, and points are tallied by where a disc lands.

Rollors was developed by Air Force Major Matt Bulter, of Destin, FL. Major Butler dreamed up Rollors while he was an Air Battle Manager in Afghanistan. Now, he’s hiring vets to handcraft the wooden Rollors sets in their free time. He admits that using local services to meet his needs has been more expensive, but worth it. One of the hardwood maple sets takes about two hours to make, and sells for $85.

Matt is currently looking for additional game makers to produce the Rollors game as a way to help build popularity and spread the game to new areas. If you would be interested in making or distributing Rollors games, please contact Matt at 478-501-2003 or send an email to matt@rollors.net

Another way Matt’s been increasing the visibility of the game is by sponsoring Cornhole tournaments. His first official sponsorship is for the 3rd annual Windy City Tournament. Matt’s also open to sharing web links. If you’re interested, visit the Rollors website.

The biggest thing I’d like people to know is it’s patented unlike many of the other lawn games and w/ it’s high popularity I’ve got more demand vs product and need help making more (if that makes sense).

The Rollors games are extremely well crafted, and are a game that will last for many years. For more on the Rollors game, check out the Rollors website and the Rollors Game Review at Outdoor Game Reviews.

Outdoor Stickers for your Outdoor Games

An article on WikiHow shows you how to create Outdoor Stickers. People often use vinyl decals on their Cornhole and Washer boards. Buying decals can be expensive. Creating your own stickers can save you money, while giving you a really unique look for your boards. You could create letting for the sides of a board or a large logo for the top of the board. Use your imagination and see what you can come up with! These stickers would be durable, stand up to a bit of moisture, and could even take a slight beating.

Creating your own stickers will require most, if not all of the following:

Acrylic varnish
Gloss varnish
Acrylic inks
Markers ( oil-based )
Blank sheet of paper, matte finish paper is good
Pencil
Printer
Artist’s pink soap or soap or brush cleaner and restorer
Exacto knife or sharp paper scissors
Spray adhesive
