    Posted: 29 January 2006 at 10:50pm
I've played baseball for over 8 years, so I know about cleats and everything, but my real question is about paintball fields/tournaments with fields that feature turf.  Do these fields allow metal spikes?  JW, cuz if so then I'll dig in my closet and get my cleats out.

Oh ya, why has no company come out with real cleats?  All i see are simple shoes and some weird ugly cleat made by dye or some company.

BTW, how does this setup sound:
-Custom Pro
-E Grip
-Lapco Bigshot 14"
-Air America 68ci/45k N2 Tank
-Rufus Dawg Centerfeed
-Rufus Dawg Stick Trigger
-eVLution II w/ Y Board

I think its great.  I've shot about 500 balls out in the woods at 30 degrees and its held up great.  So far only shot origin classic w/ it, and those have done outstanding.  Only other barrels I have experience with is the Teardrop and the JnJ and the teardrop, IMO, sux sooo much.  The JnJ is good, I haven't got to shoot that much w/ it, but the bigshot is very good.  I would definitely recommend it.  Get beadblasted, it looks hella cool.

I wouldn't use metal cleats in tourneys that use artificial turf, but it's worth asking. If it's outdoor, then you are probably okay. Still, ask before you get to the field.

Companies don't make a huge number or variety of cleats because there isn't a market for them.

Sounds fine.
