| Review: |
Young Guns is a feild that I absolutly love. They have some amazing courses and run their feild very well. You are told the rules and they let you know the consequences of breaking them. The paint/air is quite cheap and the atmosphere is friendly. Every year my youth group goes here and we always have a great time. |

Best of everything,this field is the marquee place to play and beats all fields in edmonton and surrounding areas.
Safety,staff friendliness,paint pricing,rental markers,overall atmosphere can't be beat by any other!
Field layout is awesome,lots of areas to play without having to wait very long.

| Review: |
Well most of the other reviews cover it(except one???????). Great field, great staff, GREAT SAFETY, As a pass holder I usually only play here unless I am on holidays, then I check out more. The other great thing is that YGP is a year round outdoor field. You have to try that(as a woodsball player it changes everything). 10 out of 10 |

| Review: |
I'm kind of new to paintball and I haven't played very much but I found this field very fun and enjoyable. The staff were really nice and helpful, there were nice rentals (spyder TL- X), It cost me roughly around $40 dollars for the rental, the field fee and all the extra paint I had to buy
the fields were awesome and in great condition. the prices weren't that bad either. I played 2 hours with three friends and we had a blast. The best field is probably graveyard or ghetto.
So theres my noobie review if anybody even cares what I think. Anyway, great field will definitely go again.| Last edited on Sunday, January 28th, 2007 at 10:58 am PST |

| Review: |
fields - nicely maintained, plenty of fields to cater to all paintballers
proshop - lots of products, friendly people
prices - Most expensive of all the local fields.
Let me explain.
Field fee is $17 + gst at YGs. other places charge $10(gst included)
if you are using CO2..they charge you on each fill. HPA is free
they limit you on playtime of 3hrs whereas the other fields are unlimited in playtime
paint prices are compariable to other fields
3hrs go by fast when you have to walk from location to location..
GST is added on all prices afterwards where asthge other field's the prices include the GST. (with the exception of Urban. they add the gst on top of their prices)
given the distance from Edmonton to all the other fields...I would chose not to go to YGs due to the fact they are not on par with other fields in terms of prices. I like playing wood ball and to me a tree is a tree and a bush is a bush.....other larger fields provide nice customer service, nice amendities, and nice fields to play on without having a time restriction and a nickle and dime a customer to death approach..

| Review: |
I have been playing paintball in all its forms for the last twenty-three years, and I have visited almost all of the fields in Alberta, as well as many outside of the province, so it is not to be taken lightly when I say Young Guns is one of the two best fields in Alberta. The other great field is Weekend Warriors. This is not to say that all other fields in Alberta are terrible. A few are, of course (some so bad I inspected them and chose never to play on them), but most are at the least adequate, especially so are many of the smaller courses that provide great facilities despite the setback of being located in remote areas with a limited population.
Young Guns provides a great variety of fields, ranging from woodsball to speedball, to choose from, and all are well maintained. Scenarios and tournaments are run regularly.
Rules are presented clearly and safety is given high priority.
Players of all calibre are treated well, and are not made to feel as though they are nuisances or cash-cows. The focus is on helping all players have as much fun as possible.
Prices are excellent. The pro-shop is well stocked and additional items can be ordered upon request.
I've heard a few (a very few) derogatory comments about Young Guns' facility, but have been unable to find any tangible reason for the slander. The only excuse that comes to mind is that the player who finds fault must be extremely new to playing on any commercial field and, therefore, does not understand what he or she is seeing and experiencing when visiting Young Guns. This player will very disapointed whenever he or she visits any other field in Alberta because the same level of service and field options are not be found anywhere else. |

| Review: |
well i gotta say, best field in northern alberta for sure (i havent played outside alberta). i am a season pass holder so i have seen their operation as a gun-owner as well as a renter a few years ago.
this place is always under construction. at the moment young guns is expecting a new CXBL official X-Ball field (they now have 2 xball fields). the main field is being closed off so that they dont have too many stray balls flying from the gun-owners and hitting the renters, as well as getting a scoreboard for the CXBL tournaments comming this summer.
the prices are very reasonable, and you even get a discount for being a season pass holder.
the staff is very friendly, and are willing to help with anything they can. they are very organized and things seem to run really smooth.
like another person said earlier, they have an excellent safety record. they have a 10 minute safety video (as of this year, it was shortened) that everyone must watch before they can rent, or buy a day pass.
the rental guns i saw when i was there last seemed to be new, the sypders they have are good guns. and the free air is a bonus.
only time will tell what Brandon and Destiny(owners) will come up with next. Good luck in the future guys!| Last edited on Sunday, May 7th, 2006 at 8:55 pm PST |

| Review: |
This is the only place I've ever paintballed but i can say none of the other paintball Fields seem better that Young Guns. It has 12 Fields and all of them are great. With 4 Wooded Fields and 8 Non-Wooded fields including X Ball. The prices are very reasonable as well, its around 15 dollars for a day of paintball if you own your own gun.
The staff are really nice and they know a lot. With a 15 minute orientation film and good rules they have a perfect safety record. This is a great place for people of all skill levels and all ages! |

| Review: |
All of the positive reviews before mine can be summed up into one word. Value. Every paintball place around has similar priced rental packages, similar priced gear, snacks, drinks, etc. What Young Guns has that the other places around can not even try to compare to is the facilities, the staff and (this one really stands out for people who bring their own gear) the paint prices. Young Guns has a well stocked Pro Shop (Paintball Passions), free HPA (with day pass), and the best prices and selection of paint I have ever seen. The staff are accommodating and very helpful. Whether your group (owners or renters) plays daily, weekly, or once a year, you can be guaranteed that there is no other field around that offers the value that Young Guns does. |
