Hey, had a cool idea for a new course. I have some woods in the back of my house that are about 50 feet across and 150 yards long. It's not filled with a lot of underbrush but there are a lot of trees for cover and I could easily set up some bunkes. The problem is that maybe 50 yards from each side of the woods are houses and I would be screwd if any one misfired. If I post some pictures do you guys think you could tell me if it could be turned into a nice field?? :character0095:

It probably could, but...
With the houses sooooo close, you'd need netting to prevent any unfortunate accidents. Then there's the neighbors to deal with, and Law Enforcement if you're in town, and then waivers, etc.

Yeah I agree, the neighbors won't be happy if people at your field get paint marks on their house.

I was driving south of stewartville and turned into a sub division. there were two kids paying paintball about twenty feet from the road with tippmanns.all they had was two oak trees and some small trees.Here's the place

I pulled over and just so happened to have a headgear in the car .I went out and saw they weren't even using proper safety equipment. I yelled at them and told them to un air the markers and give me their Parents phone numbers.they ran. I let them go .what was I to do. These kind of events ruin our sport. Use your best Judgement Sencor. you do represent our team(being a member)the team integrety would be in stake if an accident happened.

Yeah I understand, I just thought it would be a cool idea for practices because its right in the middle of Stewartville and Rochester so the team could make it fine. But I totally understand and I won't do any thing unless I get nets and permission from the neighbors. Thanks for telling before I had to wipe paint from some ones house.

We could always use my house, I already have a woods field set up for my friends and I, and we also have an open grass field we could fill with inflatabe bunkers and such for a speedball field. Just ask frank,he played here at my house and ended up being THAT GUY; the one that plays paintball with a bunch of high school kids :D
