| Review: |
Ok i love thier X-ball field. great place to shoot basicly any paint you bring.. rates are good . they have 3 fields up. many people go there to play which i like having diversity when playing new and experienced... this field inspired me to buy the t-chip so i ramp on some people... great field over all. ill give it a 9 because sometime it takes forever to get a game started |

The field has a few nice fields to choose form and luckly it does not have a woods field which usually attracts all the noobs and limits the speedball play. They do have a car field which i do not care for so much but all the noobs like it and alot of the day gets wasted there too. The pro shop is not elaberate but the owner and the lady at the desk are really nice! Cant say so much about the refs though. There is one i like and he seems to try his best. Most of the others are chumps that just try to make everyone feel like they are worthless begenniers. They point everyone out to everyone and that is not fun for me to know where people are and for people to know where im at. Just let us figuer it out, that is what we paied for! I was refilled with a pod one time and started to make my move to a new bunker and got stopped mid run by a ref for a paint check. No one even shot at me or knew where i was. When he said "player is clean" i got my a$$ blown off! The next game i accidently unloaded on that ref when i poped out of a bunker! Hey, i would never do that but he desirved it! The refs talk to each other too long between games and are jerks, sometimes. I do though still come back here cus the field is one of the best around and you get good refs somedays and the field usually has a huge croud and there is a group of hot girls that go to play too! Good field but im really close to telling the owner what i think about the refs. I still give it a 7 |

Directions
to the Field: |
Take I40 to Exit 221B, get onto Central Pike going towards the hospital, you'll go past Cherry Creek Apartments and another apartment complex. Continue down Central Pike till you get to Brandau Road and take a left onto Brandau Road, if you cross the railroad tracks you went to far. The field is a ways down Brandau road on your right. |

Okay, so I just posted a review of MTP, figured I'd do the same for Nashville Paintball Inc, (the one in Hermitage). Well let me just lay this out and it'll go much quicker.
Pros:
Nice variety of fields: hyperball, X Ball, airball, car field
Fields are well kept up, washed after every Sunday
Plenty of parking and seating for all
Everyone is really friendly
Get to see lassie and Digger
BYOB, except for the banned paints, see not at bottom of post
Neutral:
No woodsball field, don't really care for woodsball, but if your looking for true woodsball it ain't here.
Seperate rental fee of $10, Ihave my own gear so don't need to rent.
Paint is about the usual, starts at $40 a case and goes up
Cons:
Is a bit more then MTP
Field fee is $15
All day air is an additional $10
Rental package is an additional $10
Conclusion:
So basically I love this field, it's very close to my home so I try to get out there at least once every weekend. The fields are well laid out, though they can't really hold much more than 25 - 30 people, but who'd wanna play with that big a group. The refs are really nice, never had the experience of one not checking someone. There's only 2 teams that practice on the field, so you don't have the airball field taken up the whole day, just part of it, for practice. If you get to play with Mark the owner it's a treat. There are lots of Nashville pros that come here so you have plenty of opportunity to learn the right way to play, and not just get killed time after time. I'm giving this field a 9 out of 10.
Paints banned at NPI:
Okay here's the paints that are banned from NPI because they stain the bunkers and the players:
Kickin with white fill
Ultra Evil
RPS Premium with hot pink fill
ZAP
Tactical Sport
Any other staining pain

NPI is a great place for recball/tourneys. They have a Mardi Gras airball, a great hyperball, concrete field, and a car field. The fields are well layed out. The service is pretty good, but some of the time they dont have a ref and when they do the ref doesnt care to give paint checks because they claim they "didnt see that he was hit" >:O The prices are good tho. |

They have nice fields and facilities but the wait between games is incredible considering it could take you 30 seconds to walk from the field to your gear for anything you need. The wait was 20-30 minutes because the refs were busy talking to everyone about how fast their guns cheat, I mean ramp (and cheat).
The field could be so much better than what I experienced but unless I hear a lot of other people telling me it's changed I won't be back.

| Review: |
I for one will not be giving the field a very good rating. Throughout my course of attending the field the quality of the field dropped tremendously. When I first went their last year when it opened, it was amazing. The refs were great, the owner was great. Throughout this season I have noticed a steady decrease in quality. I was up there one afternoon and I had gone into the "proshop" to get my tank filled. I walk in and see numerous refs and whatnot, and one of them was talking to Corey, the owners ref. As I wait for my tank to be filled, I over hear Corey bad-mouthing someone who wasn't there that day. I was appauled. How could you try to represent the field well when you yourself are in the "proshop" talking about other players behind their back who help keep your field open? I am in now way a pro myself, but not I refuse to go back there because I don't feel like making 1 mistake and being spoken down on all the time. I do not suggest this field to anyone who is not VERY experiences. |

| Review: |
Well to start off the peaple there are very freindly.(Cept boogie no imjust kidding)
the rental guns could use some help if u have to play the better player becuz some of Tennessees best do come here to play so dont get cuaght out there without some fire power.(but i here adreins gonna get some guns to rent other the an those heats.
Mark is a good guy hes the owner when he saw me out there playing the big dawgs with that heat and my egg on it he offerd to let me use his tippmann which help out alot.thank u. The refs are a bit young but they do stay on top of things and make sure ur barrel bags on and your mask is on.The players there r always willing to help you oput if ur new to the game and we will gladly offer tips to u just ask 1 off us if u need some help.If there are new player there they will have the 10 foot rule which u r not alowed to shoot someone less than 10 feet away.the feilds r fair the newbs seem to like the concrete feid and the car feild becuase the more experiensed players stick to the aiir and hyper ball feilds.this feild is very diverse wich makes it fun for every 1.
so if your new to the game come and play here.
and if your not new and you weant some better competition come here and you will find it
im only giving it an eight becuase peaple dont check the speeds on your gun and some of the feilds have some rocks on it and there not comfy to slide on.
but over all this is a good feild |

| Review: |
This is a course, until today, I would have given an excellent review. This review is written specifically for those who are considering for use of their children approximately 10 years old to 16. The staff is very friendly. The courses they offer are OK although almost everyone wants to play only on the airball field which at the moment isn't up and running.
Their refs are quite young and do not really enforce authority. The players guns are not checked on a regular basis (chronographed) in the 20 plus times visited, they have checked the gun once. The one issue I have over the fact the guns are not checked is the fact that they allow players to shoot as close as they want. They allow players to shoot a few inches away when bunkered. This is when I have to re-evaluate my choice of paintball fields. I am sorry to say I do not give this course a high rating.
There is also a high number of players who are very serious about their game and do not fare well with younger, less experienced players. There is some teasing and harassing that goes on between the older and younger players too. I believe this course is great for older, more experienced players who do not care if they are injured on the field.
