Comments on Truelove's Review

Truelove Tuesday, April 27th, 2010 Period of Field Use: 6 months Last There: April 17th, 2010 Paintball Experience: 1 year Other Fields in the Area: I have played at "Hotel of Death" and two of our own private fields and Fort Knox beats them in all areas except for price, ( the 3 other fields were free). I have not played at any other professional fields. Review: I have been to Fort Knox twice now and both times i have had a great time. They stress safety which is good for everyone. The fields are well built with good quality material and are themed with ideas like Area 51 and Sherwood Forest. The only field i have any negativity towards( which is almost negligible) is the tire field which i feel is to dense with to many bunkers. This April, at the request of many people, they had a two day event which i thought was an awesome idea. Camping was free and spacious. Fires are allowed as long as they are safe and contained. As i have not played at very many fields i am not really qualified to compare prices but i have heard of other field prices and Fort Knox is relatively cheap. Many places require that a person buy paint from their field but Fort Knox allows players to bring their own paint, except for unsafe brands, which are posted at the main building. If a player desires they can buy paint from Fort Knox which is good quality and comparatively well priced, and kept at a good temperature. I recommend buying paint at their establishment daily because the changes in temperature throughout the day and night can cause the paint to become brittle if its cold or dimple or warp if its hot. Also, the pro shop has basic equipment like mask and other accessories that can be bought, or rented if you have friends that don't have their own equipment, all of which is also reasonably priced. Food is provided at around Noon for big games and is never more than 3 or 4 dollars for a good lunch. The owner and his son are good people and wish more than anything for everyone to have a great time. The rules are fair and the teams well balanced, and the refs are also fair and usually easy to get along with. All around Fort Knox is a great place to spend a weekend with good friends and meeting new ones. I would recommend Fort Knox to any player ready to have a great Time!!!
