| Review: |
hey look I just wanted to express my thanks to this guy. his attitude to help players with equipment troubles and the like is unmatched!
nice fields and great atmosphere for family and tourney players alike.
great pricing and if you find a better price he's already matched for me in the past just to get the business and keep me from having to deal with shipping costs or fuel costs driving somewhere else. sometimes alittle quirky, but all in all a great place to do your shooting and your business. |

| Review: |
When we pulled up it looked like a little shack, it was nasty .o.k so we walked into a dimly lit shack. The owners are rude and made some very abnoxious co0mments that were totally uncalled for.the fields ........SUCK........im sorry but there were 3 fields crammed onto a lot the size of a standardized lot like you would put a house on. It is all weeds. tha fort is falling down. It is sooooo expensive and the paint is not even worth it.
I wouldnt recomend this field to anyone |

We only went there once. We will never EVER go back there again. It started out when we got there. The place looked like an abandoned junkyard.The parking lot was the grass next to the guys driveway.So we get in the shop and and this guy insults my little brother calling him a "dumb!?!" because my brother thought he lost his velocity adjuster.In reality my brothers adjuster was specially made inside the gun.NOw I was furious but I didnt want to dissappoint my brother by going home.So we decide to stay anyway.He charged $20 for 500 CHEAP, CRAPPY paintballs (field paint only of course).
Then he told us what field we were going to play on.BUUUTTT.... before we started playing, he HAD to inform us about his GREAT strategy that always wins him games. He told us exactly what to do 100% of the time.Oh I forgot to mention, he went and got his own paintballs out of his own private stash (you know draxxus or diablo).Then after the game he brags more about his AWESOME strategy.My friend got really mad and challenges him to a one on one.The guy laughs and tells us a story about how he beat the last guy that challenged him 1 on 1.In the end though, he didnt accept it (I wonder why?)So we waste the rest of our paintballs and gladly get ready to home.But before we could go the guy stopped us to tell us about his cheap prices on his equipment ,all while smirking and standing there like an idiot.So we made it to our car and left.That was not only the worst field I have ever been to, but also the worst I have ever been treated.Take my word for it, after playing 8 years of paintball I think I should know that Hosers and Snipers are really Cheaters and Liers. By the way dont even think of joining his tournaments.He wants you to buy a case per person playing and his cheap paint only( $72.00 a case ).
PS: The guys name is "Kim".

I've read some reviews here that do not reflect this field or its owner very well. I've played all over the U.S. and I think I've seen just about everything, now on to my thoughts:
The Field:
The area setup to play is very organized and has a look that is very inviting to play! The owner has the ability to customize on the fly so that is a VERY nice setting in my eyes because the same thing over and over can get kinda boring sometimes unless your practicing for tourney ball!
The Owner:
In any field, the owner makes or breaks the place in my eyes! Kim, my hats off to you buddy for your knowledge and patience! The field wasn't even open but I called him up and explained that I just picked up a new Karnivor and needed to get it adjusted and setup. He told me to come on over and together we worked on this thing and had LOTS of fun with it. That in my eyes is a CLASS act that speaks volumes about him. He didn't charge me for air and gave me a very good deal on the paint to get setup.
While we were playing, someone dropped buy to ask about buying equipment. Again, he ISN'T open, but he worked with the kid trying to determine the kid needs vs. wants. I was extremely impressed with the prices he was giving this kid on various equpiment he was asking about. I'm able to buy bought wholesale equipment myself (don't ask) and he was giving the kid wholesale prices!!!! I was floored and thinking to myself how does he make money to operate his business and the answer is simple: Cheaper prices bring more customers, so his profit is in volume. GREAT PLACE TO BUY AND PLAY!!!!!!! |

This field is the one of the best around. It is always clean and well kept. The staging areas are
tented with benches and racks for your markers and always well maintained. The owner is a
stickler for safety and fair play. He or his refs always try to split the teams up so they are fair.
The game turn around is very fast I must have got five game in an hour. I know who the sniper of
“ Hosers and Sniper” is . That would be the owner with his cocker pump. No matter how much
paint you sling at him he always manages to take us out with one shot. There are two fields one
30 piece sup-air ball which is one of the largest around, and one made up of woods and tire forts
and spools. Both field are grassy and well kept. I do not know how they keep it so clean and
green because when ever I play there it is away mowed and trimmed , but when I leave it is full
of paint balls. I used to think the prices were a little high ,but when I play else where I found out
different. He charges one price for paint only ever thing else is included. (air, entry fee, o-ring
,some repair). So for thirty five bucks you get 800 rounds of paint and get to play! |

although i have never played at this field - i would like to say Kim is a great guy - from the first day i walked in there i had nothing but respect from him and his staff - i was brand new to paintball - bought a vl triad the day before - walked in his store to get my tank filled and everyone was nice - came back a couple of days later for more air and the same thing - have returned many times since then and never played at the course - just bought paint and air - and he never harasses me about not playing - people i have talked to in the area that do play there only speak highly of him and his field as well - i give the owner and staff a ten and since i have to give the field a rating i say nine |

I have a great experience at this field every time that I play it. Both the air ball field and also the woods/speedball field are constantly changing. The turn over time in between games are very small. I have been to some fields where it is a half hour just to get onto the field and play another game. I have found that most players that play this field leave happy and wanting more, which shows me the field, enviroment and staff have all done their job. I have seen some players leave not happy due to the fact that their ego got the best of them. All in all I must say that this field is fun and safe and is also geared towards rec players and newbs. The field staff are great and i have yet to pay for a blown o-ring or any minor repair to any of my markers. I recommend this field to young and old alike.| Last edited on Tuesday, February 24th, 2004 at 12:12 pm PST |

| Review: |
The field is a small air ball course that they brag about but is not much fun after 5 games. They have a small speedball course right next to it made of old fences and tires. All games last about 5 mins or less and consist of the players who can afford to spray paint covering the field and shooting everyone else up. Thier are only hosers and no snipers. Less experienced players are taken advantage of and the staff/friends of the owner seem to enjoy proving that they are somehow elite by shooting up the newcomers.
If you are not a frequent player and only purchase supplies, air and paint then the owner will insult you and give you second rate service. After our experience of bieng talked down to and abused on this field my friends and I only go here when we are desperate for supplies and must endure bieng made fun of and second rate treatment. The owner has said things such as "I guess you wont play here cuase you are too scared to play with real paintballers". It is this attitude that keeps us from continiung to play on this mans field and I would suggest that only people with sufficient talent to play in tourneys or interest in bieng mutilated should play on this mans field. You may also enjy playing here if you like to play the same 5 minute speedball game all day long. |
