would you guys happen to know where the nppl gets there turf from and how much it costs. any of that info would be great. but mainly where to get it. you know like over the sand at hunington.....

im gonna make a snap box in my back yard but it is bigger than the normal snap box. dimensions are 35' * 65'. well i want to put turf down and wanto to stay away from the home depot stuff. its ok but not the greatest.

no way. and i thought it was small. well i know that it is big for a snap box. and it is only a third of the yard. i have the biggest yard in my city and my family aint rich either. well one of the biggest. we just got lucky.

my school has fieldturf (its what the atlanta falcons have). to cover our smaller than average soccer field, it cost somewhere along the lines of 800,000 USD. yeah its the kind with little rubber things all over. so maybe turf like that isnt such a great idea.

no you are looking at the permenent stuff. im talking the carpet like stuff. you buy a roll of it and just lay it on. Like the stuff at home depot. its cheep but you can slide on it. yeah. paintball turf. The NPPL calls the stuff that they use actionturf. thats what i am looking for mainly

For your own private snap box that is kind of going to extremes. That suff is way too expensive for just private use are you going to charge ppl to use ir or what?

They have giant rolls of astroturf and stuff at Home Depot. They usually have a tag with price per sq ft.

That is a little overboard for a snap box though.

not really. common you guys dont give on me. dont you like the best. plus its gonna be used almost every day. but the stuff at home depot i can cover the whole box for about 350 and that is not bad.i am just looking to see if i can get other stuff, better stuff, without a huge price change. i checked out some turf here...... well i couldnt find the site but that was around 4000. but it also had foam on the back side of it. not needed
