| Review: |
There are a 3 things that over the years I have seen that separate a good field from a from a great field. They are staff, staff, and staff. Everything else falls down to 4th or so on the list of importance. At the Fun Farm I found the following.
*** Helpful active reffing staff who took there job and safety seriously.
*** Friendly knowledgeable pro shop staff who answered questions honestly even when the answer was "I really don't know" That is a HUGE deal because so many times I have seen pro shop staff just fill in the blanks in their knowledge with BS. This can cause issues especially for newbies who really think what they are hearing is true. Sometimes doing this might make a sale but it is never a good idea.
*** A field operator who appeared to genuinely be concerned for the safety of his players and that everyone have a good time. Like everyone else he was honest helpful and dedicated to the customer.
** fields that were interesting to play and unique I only played one field but looked over most of the others and all of them look fun to play. They are not the smooth flat astro turfed field we see in tournament play. Don't expect that. Honestly though such fields are boring to play most of the time unless you are actively playing in a tournament.
All in all this is a great place to go play paintball and There are plans an construction going on here to make it even better. Thanks for a great day of paintball and for hosting the XPPL tournament. |
