Other Fields
in the Area: |
Tigerstripe Paintball (Plattsburgh, NY Area) - It doesn't even compare. This place made Route 4 look like the best field in NY state. There was no comparison.
Albany Paintball - Not as smooth running. Bad refs (little kid refs). |

| Review: |
Safety - Safety is huge. Masks must be worn at all times on the field and in the staging area barrel socks must be on the markers.
Fields - The fields are great. The airball field is nice and the other fields are cool too.
Hours of Operation - Sat and Sun 10 AM - 5 PM.
Prices - The prices are fair. Just like any other field in NY, they could be better.
Rental (w/ 200 paintballs) and entry - $15
All day air - $10
HPA fills (without all day air) - $1 per 1K PSI
CO2 fills - $4 a fill
X.O. Hotbox Paint - $60
Bushido Paint - $65
Rules - Semi auto only!
Proshop - Enough gear and little things you may need as well as parts to fix your marker if need be.
Staff - Friendly. The manager, Joe, is a nice guy as well as all of the refs.
Refs - Friendly, good, and helpful.
Players - The regulars (like myself) are all very laid back and nice to newer players or walk-ons.
Facilities - Clean and well kept. The bathroom is also clean and tidy.
Food - Sally's Hen House right nextdoor is a great place to get a bite to eat.| Last edited on Thursday, July 19th, 2007 at 10:44 am PST |

This is the second year of operation for this field. The owner, Rich is an avid player and is constantly upgrading and improving.
Last year there was one X-ball, one woods and a small fort field. This year he has 2 woods fields, on on a hill, a spool field, airball, and a huge, upgraded fort field with 2 small towers, and custom built wooden bunkers. They are standard airball shapes, cans, doritos and aztecs, plus some unusual shapes, all made of wood, looking like little log cabins. He is currently building a Western town, about half done with the first phase (6 buildings, one street), and wants to set up a permanent NPPL designed standard field using wooden bunkers.
He has 4500 HPA and CO2, and sells some gear at the field. The manager, Joe is a great guy. He'll fix your marker(small repairs), give you an O-ring, and if you have a problem, he'll do what he has to to make it right. Last weekend he had a problem filling my 3.5oz CO2 for my Phantom, so he gave me a box of 25 12gms free.
All day air is $10, or $1 per 1K, $4CO2, (he charges me $1 for the 3.5Oz tank)
$10 will get you a full rental setup, including a hopper of paint and a 3K air fill
Paint is FPO, Origin Signature for $65 a case
$5 field fee for all day play
There are lots of regulars, all nice guys, helpful to new players. They will let you try out a marker, help fix yours, whatever. Lots of walk ons and renters who are made to feel welcome as well.
Refs are good, they try to have 2 or 3 for larger games, but with 5 fields and growing, you can usually stick to smaller games if you like.
Overall, it's a great place to play and have fun. The regulars aren't hotshots interested in winning above all, they are just there to have fun. |

| Review: |
I played at the 2 man tournament and i thought the speed ball field was great. There are a couple more fields that i haven't played on but heard very good reviews about. A woods ball which is pretty good. A hay bail field which is fun If you want to go for practice or with some friends, and a tire field which is really fun and is set up great.
I'll give the field a 9.5 because of the lack of fields, but i'll round up| Last edited on Thursday, June 1st, 2006 at 5:51 pm PST |
