This was my first time playing at a real field. Before we had just played at a couple places here in batesville. The refs. were very nice, and fair. When the ref for our group found out that we were noobs, he took the time to really explain everything very well, as well as give us pointers and tips. The ref also took the time to point out any mistakes that we were making in an effort to help us improve our games. The snack shack people were very friendly, and well stocked. The "speed shop" had a good selection of parts and several knowledgeable people to answer any questions. One thing I was really impressed with was that they don't concentrate only on speed ball, they have around 8 nice woods ball courses.
The refs. were really on top of goggle safety and making sure everyone used barrel condoms. My only issue with the whole experience was that several people walked on the field without going to the chrono. After asking for a chrono i discovered that my marker was shooting at 350 fps. In all fairness they just had a big group that wasn't scheduled and it was kinda crazy.
If you ever get a chance to go I would highly recommend it, you will enjoy it.
