[lopxtc]

I gotta tell ya if comes down to FPO or BYOP, Im going to pick the BYOP location since I can get paint fairly cheap.

Well, I'm going to have to depend on you guys for prices. Around here the average field fee is $20-25, air is about $1 per 1000 lbs or $10 for all day air, and about $80 for a case of paint. I think there is only one BYOP place in colorado.

So basically all that stuff sound cheap!

So do I have it about right with the following locations (give or take):

Outer Limits -- 100 miles St. Louis, 200 miles to KC

Battle Creek -- 100 miles St. Louis, 100 miles to KC, 75 miles to Rolla?

Xtreme -- 20 miles St. Louis, 220 miles to KC, 120 miles to Rolla?

You can check out Battle Creek's web sight for most of the information and pics of the fields. I think it is $15 for field fee and all day air if you have your own marker, $20 for rental markers (M-98s) Paint is Wargames and ranges from 55-80/case depending on the brand. It is field paint only.

Their web sight should be up and running. it's www.battlecreekpaintball.com.

do you think that if we do a privite game at battlecreek the owner would let us use our own paint? so ppl like lopxtc who can get decent paint at a good price can do so? that and the fact that if somone gets that paint and it is not a good barrel match than it proly is not going to be cool, plus i am sure they would make a good sum of money off of us to not need fpo. i am realying going to push this for battlecreek though i am going to tell you guys now; being as it is about equal distance for every one, plus i wont be able to go out to rola, or anyplace further away than kindom city unless it is close to osage beach;my mom is weird and told me that i need to be with in an hour eather my home here in O'fallon, or my grandmas lil summer weekend vacation area in osage, dont ask me why, she is odd.

Count me in

Ill be there. You guys came to my field last time. My turn to head west. Just let me know the date. Sorry for not being on the boards as much lately. We picked up Racegun as another sponsor. They require us to hit a few more majors then we were used to. Still trying to get used to the set up they want. But if you let me know ahead of time I will make sure I can make it.

As for what you guys are talking about with paint. I can get you a good deal on Nitro Duck paint if anyone wants to go that route. I use the nitro Duck Pro Series paint myself. So if you want some for the meet and greet, just let me know ahead of time and I will bring extra with me to the meet and greet.

Cool. Well at this point pretty much the only differences are paint (FPO or BYOP) and location. Field and air seem pretty much the same.

This Rick guy seems to be pro-mag and willing to do this AO day, so I'm leaning toward Battle Creek right now. Especially if he can cut us a deal on paint prices! Don't suppose he gets on AO does he?

I put a list of what I think are interested people in the first post so we can get a very preliminary idea of how many people are interested right now.

and dont forget about me.......

ice-child, send me a PM about the paint situation, i really like the nitroduck stuff (pink w/ black tigerstripes) :)

I'm sitting here with the owner and field manager of Battle Creek. They that 10.00 field fee with all day air and 55.00 per case on worr competition or 60.00 per case for worr domination paint. It is a field paint only field. If we get 10 or more people we can have private play. They say we are more than welcome and they would be glad to have us. They want me to mention that they also have a campground (Crooked Creek Campground) with real restrooms, rec room and food available. If anyone is interested camping the night before would not be a problem. Primative camping (no electric or water hookups) is free for our get together and full hookup sites for those with trailer will be available at discount rates.

[ShooterJM]

Wow. Well like I said, I'm used to $20-25 just for field fee and around $80 for a crap case of paint.

Thanks for the quick info and the great offer!

My personal vote is for Battle Creek.

Reasons: good location, prices, seems like cool management.

if you guys want battle creek that is cool, but like i said in an earlier post, we will be having an AO meet at xtreme, it is just a matter of when. so you guys go ahead and decide on when to have it at battle creek and i will then schedule one for xtreme later on down the road. sound fair?

I will definetly be at the Xtreme one, assuming everything at my work goes well. They just announced before we left for thanksgiving on Wed, that they are planning on laying off another 400 people world wide in the next three weeks.


Anyone need a Unix Geek for hire? :) LMK

Ok i am in Rolla, few miles away from outer limits. Even though i would LOVE to have the meeting here just a walk from outer limits, I think it may be a little small if we get a lot of people to come. Its got 2 or 3 indoor fields, consession with pizza/drinks. cool people work there but its not very big. It all depends on how many people will go. I've never been to battle creek but the guy down the hall has, he says its a real fun park.


Also over the holiday weekend i went shopping with grandparents/parents and as we were driving ( i think it was around the Fenton area) my mom asked me what some thing was in a field and pointed at it, she said she thought it was a dog obstical course of some kind. When i look over theres a sup-air field ! look some more and theres 2-3 more speedball fields made out of various things with netting surrounding them all. I have no idea really where i was at, or what the place was called but it was cool :)

WAIT a second, there are TOO MANY Xtreme Paintball Parks

I thought you guys were talking about this new park:
Xtreme Paintball Park
939 Oak Terrace Court Fenton Missouri 63026
314-968-0911
The name speaks for itself..Xtreme Paintball Park truly is a park! The amenities were designed with large church, school and corporate groups in mind. Our staff is friendly and professional and our goal is to ensure that your group has a wonderful experience. We are a "family" business, there is NO alcohol, etc. allowed on the premises. Our rental package, group rates and paintball prices provide you with the very best for less. We offer a wide variety of playing fields, from heavy woods to "open" fields with man-made obstacles. If your group has played paintball before, we invite you to compare us to any other field in the St. Louis area...we are 15 minutes from south county (Just across the Jefferson Barracks Bridge) and 30 minutes from Chesterfield, Mo.

Warpig shows it having BYOP, N2 4500 fills, food, etc. And i'm pretty sure it has a Sup-Air field, i might call them but its long distance from rolla. I think its brand new looked cool when i drove by it :) Someone around there check it out please!!!
