Paintball-Feeler
 

I just recently got back into the sport after a LONG hiatus and just the sheer talking of it seems to have garnered interest with people.

So I wanted to feel out if maybe we could get a group together to go play. Probably only need about 8 people to have a decent turn out, but more the merrier.

Let me know if there are any thoughts on it and maybe we can set something up this summer. If there isn't enough interest then meh.

in :)

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I'm in.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

depends on what kind of paintball. I love playing a good woods course with a group. but not that big a fan of speedball anymore

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I'm thinking if its only like 8-10 people probably just stick to some kind of speedball, if we can get like 12+ then woodsball would be cool. Small teams in a woodsball setting would just kind of suck if the course was too big.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I'd probably be down. Haven't played in like 6 years.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I'm down. I'll have to get to my rents and re-seal my gun.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

Im down for woodsballing.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I'll put in a vote for speedball. :)

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I'd play, I would suggest action packed paintball games in Jordan. Jim has a bunch of different fields from speedball,urban to woodsball and fairly good pricing with rentals available.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

Get to da choppaa!!

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I'd be game if I no workie

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

Ok. So we got like 10 people so far that are down so I will start planning something. I'm not entirely sure on when. Anyone got any suggestions? Maybe like june/july since there are the events in may that will eat up cash supplies.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I'd be down for some paintballin'

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

as long as it still not snowing in june and july.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

But snowball is fun. Less breaks, more welts.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I'm sure it will be snowing still, ya know, global warming and all...

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

nothin wrong with speed ball but it definatly isnt for a random group. first off gun quality really plays a difference here and unless they have been into the sport they wont have great equipment. Sprying paint and dropping cash for it aint for everyone. I just want the most amount of people having te most amount of fun. WOODSBALL

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I just like hearing noobs whine, that's all. :lol:

The first dozen times or so I played paintball was all speedball, I didn't know any other way and was forced to hit the ground running. Woodsball seemed extremely "easy" after that, haha.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

My first time ever was speed woodball (speed ball in pine trees). Thats kind of what I continued to play there after for a long time. Funnest shit around IMO.

We can focus on woodsball but I'm sure those of us who want to get in on a quick round of speedball or two probably could while others rested and what not. Both courses I was looking at have grills and stuff for whipping up weiners and what not.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

Badass, Go Febo, Go Febo, GO!

Jason, what all needs to be sealed on your gun? Just orings?

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

Depending on the date if it's early June I might be in.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

Well I will see what happens.

So far since woodsball is the preferred style I'm thinking we should hit either:

MN Pro Paintball's fields
or
Action Packed Paintball

So far pricing looks to be between $30-40 per person for a couple hours of play, free air, and gun rentals if needed. This does not include paint.

Paint according to the websites is $20 for 500 at Action packed and MN Pro
Cases are $65 for 2000 at MN Pro, but there is no case price listed for APPG.

I'll check it out more in the upcoming time. For now chew that over.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

Is field paint required at either place?

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

Field paint is required at both places, and as far as I know of, almost all places.

(Field paint being paint you must purchase AT the field, in case someone reading this doesn't know)

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

The last few times I've gone, have been with a good sized group, 20+. They've generaly givin us a group discount. Just a few bucks off but enough to check anyways.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

This is what I am hoping for. So if any of you have friends to drag along with as well maybe I can haggle a better rate.

Also, keep in mind both of these courses are south of the cities. One is in Lakeville, the other is in Jordan.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

So uhh, how far did you get on this Febo?

I know the owner of this place. Maybe he can hook us up with a deal. It has all the fields we could ask for...

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

^^^Aaron Tholey aka Pinky... I'm on a team sponsored by said field nice place.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

If this has died lmk and I can ask when I'm out on pricing for groups when I'm there for those that want to go still lmk.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

Like I said. June/July. So it is getting closer here. I will try to get some time to make some arrangements on this. But if anyone can get arrangments easier (i.e. team sponsorship) then throw it out there and lets work together.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I still haven't set anything up. But I will be attending Splat Tags Jungle Rumble this Sunday June 26th in Hudson, WI.

If anyone wants to come with, or make a group then let me know. So far it is just me and my buddy Steve going out there.

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

Off topic in here but anyone good with working on guns? I got a 98 custom that has never been used and it not firing right. Have to re-cock after every shot. Anyway if some one wouldnt mind helping me fix that would be sweet! Shoot me a pm!

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

I can fix it for you. I was the gun smith when me and craig ran FSL paintball

Re: Paintball-Feeler
 

S this is what I have found, 10 people min. full equipment 500 paintballs and a 3 hour time slot 50.00 a person. If you have your own stuff save 5 bucks.
