Alright so heres the 411 on silver creek...... ITS GREAT. they just got HPA the proshop is constantly growing, they have 7 fields and are constantly growing. the field owner is a great guy, very knowledgeable he caters to the newbs and the regs at the same time. speakers in the main town level(which is incredibly built buy the way) and a second town level with the fortress a bit off would make it great for scenario games(these havnt been created yet but im workin on it) rentals are your basic pirhanna's nothin fancy but durable and get the job done. very enforced safety rules, a very friendly environment, all the refs are great guys none of the levels are delapitated whatsoever the are all very well kept. point and case YOU MUST TRY THIS FIELD
hope to see you there

bales field good new bales good spacing great for capture the flag.
trench field not recomendedthey need to be dug out and reinforce.
tires field Great spacing and good size of bunkers both for defending and attacking.
woods field not buch brush but loots of cover Steap Incline of the hole field.
fort feild good for attacking and defending fore towers on each corner.
good staff that is knowledgeable and concerned about fun and safety.

i loved this course!! the service was the best i have recieved. the prices are fair seeing th\at they have no admission fee or playing fee. i went on mine and my buddies b-day and had an absolute blast. i jus perchased my gun online and got it that day and the batery wasnt charged, but with their service he have me a fully charged battery and paint for my birthday. they have a wide arrangement of courses and they fit all skill levels. i didnt have time to play every course, but the ones i played were awesome. Top notch course and i hope to visit asap. |

i LOVED this course. Their castle is great and so is their town. The part I really enjoyed was when one of the workers drove us around in a van and we had to shoot the other team that was hiding in the town. Their paint is relatively cheap, $150 for 2000 paintballs. The service was the best that I have ever seen at a course. Clayton was extremely helpful when watching us. Anyways its an amazing course and you won't be disapointed in it,

Silver Creek is a field I am proud to call my own...constantly building new courses and expanding their current fields.
I'm going to be perfectly honest here. I just got a job here reffing. All the courses are geared toward rec play, with the exception of a a hyperball style tire town.
Klayton (feild owner) is a great guy and he definately does whatever he can to help you out, which is pretty hard to find these days.
Paint prices are pretty high, but you get pretty decent paint as standard (unupgraded paint (PMI Stingers). Team practice night may be coming up soon, so I'm assuming paint prices will drop for those nights (likely going to be on a weekday night).
HPA and CO2 fills are free with play and there's no field fees.
There is no HPA compressor, but right now there aren't many people who use it so the tank stays pretty full for a while.
Like I said, most of the feilds are geared toward rec-play (sometimes it's nice to play the game instead of the sport). Theres a huge castle, which is a pretty new addition to the course, small woods field, huge town (a fan favourite), a small three house course, huge bale feild (closer to tourney play here too), Tire town, trenches, and a newly added airball field. Eight courses in all.
The proshop is growing bloody quick, and there's been talk of building a new splatshack to house the larger proshop. They sell blowback markers including Piranhas, spyders, tippmans, and a few starter kits too. Squeegies, a few upgrades, one or two air tanks, a few masks and assorted trinkets also line the shelves. The proshop is very moderately priced.
This place has firepits and barbeques to grill up some meat after the game and you don't have to pay for any wood/propane used, which is pretty great.
Another thing...their washrooms are outhouse...just one.
This place would get a perfect 10 but I dropped it down to 9 because of paint rpices (which aren't entirely aweful) and slight under-developement (no compressor, small ariball) and it's not too hard to get around either problem.
