I played yesterday, FPO. I was expecting some good paint for sale (pretty serious field) but I was presented with Rampage or Severe Hurricane. I bought the Hurricane, and it was the worst paint I have ever used. Hard, oval, broke in every gun it was put through, and it would bounce off people like crazy. My Angel broke it, two G7's were breaking it, the Proto was breaking it, the NME was breaking it... ugh.

So, I bought some Rampage. It was not hard; instead it was soft, very oval, and severely golf-bally. It was even less accurate than the Hurricane, and it didn't break on anything.

Not a good day. Next time I'm gonna smuggle in some Xball Gold.

if you play in the paintpark(includes turf,tire field, trench field) You pay 70CDN for 2000, entrance included, or you pay 20 for your entrance and bring your own paint...

if you play in all the other fields you pay 5 bucks for the entrance(not sure about in the summer, but in the winter when your a member they include a tipmann 98c with nitro in the entrance) and its 120 a case of 2000 for blaze. Their not bad but they go crappy in our weahter here... and the winter balls they supply us in winter went rock hard within a few months of storage to the point my bro and i went for a game in the woods behind my house and within 15 feet with a pump the balls would rarely break on me.

when i go in the summer i average only 500 balls a day, dad usualuy gives me a few extra. so it comes down for 35 bucks a day. I learned my tipmann wont shoot the kids head a 100 feet away and let my dad do the supressing fire lol

luckily our speedbal field is prety nice, and the setup vaires a little from time to time. I played on it a few games last week end with a group of rentals and we had a blast. nice competitions the weekend before, the field had benches for people to watch. Our woodsball fields are even better, one big city, two foretresses at both ends of the property so during hte big games 2 big teams are made and all the fields are open. ohhh, and a nice interior field with tunnels, and towers, its a sand field thought, but my cousin managed to bring his sup'd cocker without a problem.

Lightning Bolt also forgot to mention that those things break blood red. Thats their whole gimmick with them.

The field i work(ed) at is a direct rival with HS. We encourage player to check their bags in their cases before walking away with them, and replace any bags with broken rounds.

We clean up the bad bags and use them for rentals though. :D

People who are organised are just to lazy to look for things.

Thanks, the competitions we had not long ago were nice...  \iam usualy a woodballer but loved it so much iam considering buying a new gun for speedball...

as for hte bags, havnt heard of anyone tripping but the rental group i was with thought it was a great idea to move a 1000$ baloon around hte court just for the fun of it... my buddy who was reffing didnt like it so much lol
