I want to see how many of you would be interested in playing paintball? My friends and I try to play every Saturday around 10am and we are always looking for more players. Its casual play meaning that we don't do tournaments. And we pretty much accept all ages over 12. We mainly play rec ball, speed ball sometimes and scenarios like "protect the president". We also use 2Way radios for covert play.

We a field we mainly play at, for free and its a great covered rec field. Sometimes we drive to Tooele and play at an abandoned town which includes indoor from building to building.

Anywho, if you are interested in playing with us feel free to reply to this thread.

Btw, we live in the Kaysville area (20 min. North of SLC)

I'll have to post the pics of when we discovered the Tooele field back 5-6 years ago. It was in pretty bad shape. We cleaned up quite a bit and built the speed ball field nearby.

I used to play at Squaw Peak as well.

Sounds fun. We usually play at the pickup field near the provo airport. I have not had a good experience when playing at squaw peak so I stopped going there.

Example: noob with an angel doesn't put in his barrel plug. I put my mask on and have my buddy do the same. We all circle up to split the teams and he shoots one into the dirt. A rock flies up and nails a kid right in the eye. I couldn't believe it! The saying is true "you'll put someone's eye out with that thing".

I also had another time playing there where there was a TON of cheating and wiping. Not that it doesn't go on at the airport field but it was over excessive there.

I haven't played forever and I am getting really itchy to get out. I have always wanted to try that abandoned town but it is a pretty good drive for me.

Now if you want a good story, ask him about getting shot in that 'one spot'.

victims/drones...same thing

Its scary when plugs aren't in and safetys arent on...which always amazes me why people rest their fingers on the trigger even when they are walking.

Well if you guys are interested there is a game this Saturday in Nichols Field Park - located off Highway 89 in Fruit Heights. Give me a holla if you wanna come. About 8+ are expected.

And yes share the story. you can never get enough of those. And bring women so we can flirt them up too.

I've only done paintball a couple of times.... but it was a blast. We used to go play out in Rose Canyon. Anyone else ever play out there? I'm guessing the old Rose Canyon battlefield is now covered with houses....
