Of course I went to this field for d-day=) And let me tell you the best paintball game I’ve ever played. I (tried to) defended the wall from the allies. So I played at the wall, the city behind it (can't remember what it was called), and the airfield. I do applaud the allies for doing so well, but I think we will hold it next year=) but getting back on track the field is very elaborate, very big, very fun. The night game is allot of fun to=) the vending area is big and has big deals so bring some money. I got the tippmann ssl-200 hopper for $33! And they were handing out driver barrels for free!!! |

This was my first time to play at this course and I had a blast. We arrived at 9:00am on this Saturday, before it got to warm. The day started with three on three and the games were quick. When one game was over, we swapped ends and played again. As the day went on and more people showed (only a total of 13 people that day), the temp rose things got worse. After every game the refs would set in the a/c for ten minutes or so before they would come back out. In the mean time we could only set there and wish we were playing. The last game I play finished at 1:30. After telling the refs we were ready to go again (3 times) I finally left at 2:00 (30 minutes later) and the next game had still not started. During the last three games I wore my ghillie for some sniping games and the refs would tip of there buddies as to were I was. Once we got close to one of their friends and they called the game before we could reach the player. Very disappointing. I would play here again. I like to be fair. One bad time doesn't mean it will alway be that way. Like I said before I had a blast. |

Well, I see there was some issue with the lady running the registrtations from older reviews. She was very nice to me, but then again I try to be respectfull to people I dont know. They gotta give me a reason to not like them and she didnt. Probally a different lady at any rate. But everyone was pretty nice from the field.
I attended D-Day of course. I found the vendor area was pretty good. Lots of great deals to be had. Everything was tons cheaper. I left with another mask, lenses, Draxxus 68/4500, a barrel, and a hat. Take extra money because the prices are too good to pass up. They have several food vendors which the Brauts and Mexican vendors were pretty good. I didnt try the cafe, but they have one of those too. As well as a small surplus store on site, if you couldnt find enough stuff to buy at the vendors. The camping area is flipping huge.
The field, is pretty good. I was expecting more from a field with its reputation, but it was still pretty good. And I did only see 2/3 of the field. They use alot of pipes and culverts for bunkers, which do very well. People can crawl in them an you never know where your getting shot from. The couple bases I saw were pretty good. Wouldnt be bad if the roads in the woods were a bit wider for the larger tanks, but mine did fine manuvering.
Over all I had a good time the part of the game I got to play. If it wasnt a 2000 mile drive I might go back. But as it stands the gas prices killed my paintball budget.| Last edited on Sunday, June 24th, 2007 at 12:40 am PST |

The Bunker, in Wyandotte, Oklahoma is known for it's events D-Day, Black Hawk Down, and recreational events as well.
I'm not a rec/scenario baller, I play tournaments. But when I first started playing, this is where I came.
Fields and what they are used for.
-Hyperball
Used as substitute for speedball field. This is when I fell in love with tournament paintball.
-Paintball City
Fun little city like structure, using buildings as bunkers. There's even a big sniper tower, along with an Alamo, and a Police Station.
-Mounds
Like the title, a field of mounds of dirt. On the iniside is a base, surrounded by a moat. This is usually used for CTF games.. but can also be used for elimination.
-Concrete Jungle
One of the least used fields. I found this field to be very fun the six times I played it.
-Indoor Field
Usually used for The Bunker's sponsored team, Who Kares as a practice facility. I played in it once, and it's very loud, hot, and hard to see.
Staff
-Red - Airsmith/Ref
-Bull - Airsmith/Ref
-Too Tall - Ref
-Joker - Ref
-Old Lady - Cashier
-Dwayne - Owner
The staff is very friendly, and the refs were always very nice to me. Letting me use their guns and such.
The Bunker is sponsored by PMI/Evil Paintball, and therefore it carries much of that gear.
Along with paintball, The Bunker also sells weapons, guns, Army clothing, and other forms of violent recreation. :].

Dday is a well organized and intense event that brings all kinds of ballers together. 4000 players is nuts to run but they did well. Its hard enough to maintain injuries with that many players let alone player activity. The vendors is a nice addition for seeing new products and getting cheaper stuff. We had fun and will be regulars from now on. See every one next year. Great job on the fields guys-its the only way you can get so many guys together without a cluster f&%$&k.
Update
Played stalingrad at bunker and it was great in the fresh powder snow. Well run field-was dissappointed we couldnt get to the dday field but the snow and attitude of the other players made this a great scenario| Last edited on Friday, December 15th, 2006 at 2:18 pm PST |

The Bunker is not only known for its events such as D-day, Black Hawk Down, and Red Dawn, but also for its many types of practice fields for the weekend player like myself. I've played at the bunker for the last couple of months and they have an awesome business with very reasonable prices.
They have an indoor field in case of bad weather, along with the city field (full of house-like bunkers and two story buildings/structures), a fire-pit field, and another field (much like speedball).
You couldn't ask for nicer staff than those who ref and manage the Bunker. They are very helpful and knowledgeable and can answer any questions you may have in reference to paintball markers and equipment. Their #1 concern at the Bunker is safety, which is the most important.
The store area inside the Bunker is very well equipped with the latest markers and upgrade parts, and everything you could need. I thought their prices were very reasonable as well. I had recently priced the E-tek Ego (tournament-grade) marker online at the larger paintball retailers for $750. The Bunker has it for $730. Very resaonable indeed! The other side of the store area has a wide selection of army surplus gear and accessories (about 10,000 sq. feet).
Another good thing about the field is that they are able to fill my 4500psi compressed air tank, while I've found that many other fields don't fill tanks above 3000psi. Another good thing about the Bunker is that if you happen to break something on your marker, or if your gun just doesn't seem to be shooting up to par, they have certified airsmiths on site to help get you back into the action.
I haven't been into paintball very long, but the staff was more than willing to answer all of my questions, give me advice, and help improve my game tactics. The atmosphere is very family-oriented and everyone always seems to have a good time whenever I play there.
The Bunker is open 7 days a week! (9am- 6pm)
There winter hours are 9am-5pm
Sundays they are open 12 noon - 5pm
This is my non-stop shop for paintball!
I hope this review is helpful for those interested in finding a local paintball field that can service all of their paintball needs.

I don't have a lot of experiance with other fields, but I'm a regular at the bunker.
The city is great, urban combat at it's best. The firebase field is great. The speedball course is excellent as well. And they change it up every now and then to give us new angles etc. Only played in the indoor inflatable field once during a storm and it was very intense. The floor is dirt, so still good for sliding in behind a bunker if need be. They are very resonable on paint. And a lot of people don't know this, but you can buy a membership that get's you discounts on all gear and paint and no field fee's, you just pay for air when you show up. The pro shop could be a little more aggressive in there stock I think. Not a large selection of guns or accessories, but they always have the more popular guns (A5, 98c, Ion, Autocoker) in stock. If they don't have it, they can get it. Not much in the way of a snack bar either. They've got a pop machine, a powerade machine and I think a chip machine, I never make it past the powerade machine. So bring lunch. |

Where to start. Theres to much good to say about the Bunker. It really is the Grandaddy of them all. I mean this guy started this whole thing out of a tent and kept with it and look at em now. This place is awesome. Look at what these guys do,play paintball,sell paintball guns,gun products,all sorts of paintball gear,army surplus,very good gun mechanics,good customer service,good rates,killer ares to play ball,awesome staff,good refs,and lets not forget D-Day.If you have not played at d-day you have not played at all.Its mind blowing to know that someone has organized this thing.It really shows the dedication these people have put into this place.I could go on and on about this place I love it,they dont try to sell you crap you dont need, or try to rip you off like some places I have been to.And around these parts reputation speaks for itself,or he probably would have never made it out of that tent.Good people down there at that Bunker.. THANK YOU!!!!! |

This field has a very nice indoor inflatable field complete with snake, but mainly is outdoors.
Hyperball field is great fun to play, as well as concrete jungle.
The city field is fun as well, but not my style of play really.
The mounds/firebase is better now that the field is rearranged, and I had a great time playing it.
Against what others have said, the woman behind the counter is very nice to me atleast, and the selection of guns, packs, and barrels is better than that of the Ridge's selection.
Uses PMI paint, different kinds at different times, and carries a lot of PMI stuff.
Also the reffing crew is easy to befriend, especially Red and Joker, but also Bull, Fish, and Too Tall.
