Bradenton,Florida...Meet & Greet

Hey guys,
I talked to my team captain & he said "Do it!!"
How about one day in November?
Saturday or Sunday?
BBQ?
Minni-Scenario or Speedball?

You can BYOP or buy ours @ $50 a case!

Co2 or HP...we have both or bring your own!


The field is 15+ acres...some treed...some palmettos.
2 Towers, a tire base & a mock nuclear plant.

Let me know if you are interested & how many will be attending?

bbq? dude....if i'm breathing...i'm hungry

we'll most likely bring all our own goods, but some folks may get paint from you.

pm me directions from lakeland please an i'll get the florida people online so far and see if anyone is interested. i'm going to wait until after the cup to seriously work on it though ok? i'm all for it even if i have to come alone.

tell your capt. thanks for me!

[TheDuelist]

Sound good to me. I'll see if my brother is interested and maybe get our crew together and come.

hey im in boca and im lookin for some fields around here to play at. I no there arent any "official" fields around here sept up in west palm. but i do no that there are fields set up with bunkers made of old mattresses and carpets here and there. i only no of one of them, and ive herd of a few others, but cant find anyone that knows exactly were they are. does anyone no were the hell they are?

[Lee]

official "not letting this thread die" post!

dane: happy birthday! (belated) or as they say in poke county...happy berfday. i wish the had a smiley that was missing a couple teeth. that would be very appropo.

deulist and bro: cool to finally meet you guys at the cup.
i'm looking tentatively at going to showdown two weeks from today. would that work for you guys? if not, then how about a trip for you all to pbex in lakeland the following saturday? either way i'm good to go.
anyone else interested in those dates/places?

in case anyones curious about how we (black flag-ignatz, zippy, me, movie guy, ryan and dane) did in the world cup, we came in 7th....from the bottom . i love saying that!
100 points i think it was.

we had a great time though and it was most definately a learning experience.

much thanks to all the team for thier hard prep work and hard play. it was and is a pleasure, honor and priveledge to play with you all. i've said this before and here it is again: i started this thread to find some cool people to hang out and play with, and i have found exactly that. thanks all and especially iggy. i would not have done the cup if he had not persisted in asking me.

i won't break the play and games down as alot of it is a blur other than to say it was fun, fast, scary, educational and different. met some cool people, and re-met some people i had not seen in a long time: batman, capt of tampa bay raptors. ken "hollywood" gilder- i thought he was dead (nuff said ), and joey bute from pmi/evil and team static.
i shook bud orrs hand just to be able to say i did it, that man is huge!, and chatted up agdjohn, got clares autograph on her poster (it says "LOVE clare" on it!...whoo hoo!), got more freebies than any one man has a right to, bought a bushmaster and a halo as well as a few other assorted toys and trinkets, now i just have to pay the cc bill! well worth it though.

another real big and special thank you to dave, wendy and george from paintball experience. they came through for us with paint when we needed it after the tc paint debacle. movie guy did his absolute best in getting us a deal, but through no fault of his, tc just plain sucked.

ok...been almost a whole week since i played and looks like another two weeks at least before i get to put the bushy through it's paces. i don't think i'm going to make it......

[Lee]

happy birthday zippy!!!!

[HOMOCIDAL2]

Congradulations, at least you didn't finish dead last. Sorry I missed you guys play. I didn't get out there until friday and sat. Competitive Ball just ain't like a weekend outing. It's a whole new world.

[TheDuelist]

Lee- Showdown is supposed to be having a 5-man tournament of sorts on the 15th of November. Its nothing official or major but my bro and I are putting some friends together with the intention of starting our wn team and thought it wmight be a good jumping off point for us. I'd like to hook up with you to pick your brain on what you have learned after playing Cup and with whatever tournament experience you have. We have played rec ball all our years and thought we would give a couple of tourney's a shot. Hope to see you soon.

[Lee]

i'd be happy to help and lend my limited knowledge to you.

but, susan says the tourney is in february. i also hear the raptors will be there this sunday. they would be a much better resource than i would.

the two big things i learned from the cup are: don't play rec ball. we were too defensive for the amount of time of the games (5 minutes). also, make your bumps fast. cover your primary target on the break or shoot your lane->first bunker->first bump. don't wait. when your reasonably clear...go.

i'm in for showdown a week from this sunday. i simply can't wait for open day at pbex. i'm dyin' here....

[TheDuelist]

Sounds good. Any insight you offer is better than what we have now. I'll see what we can do to make it to PbEx.

[zippy]

Hey Lee: Sorry for the late response, thank you for the HAppy Birthday Wishes, i appreciate it. Do you know when PBEXp, is going to resume open games, i want to get out there sometime soon, so I can shoot off this paint I have left over. Oh yeah, BTW, you should see my Birthday present from HEather. I will send you a pic when i get one. I already Sold my Hyperframe, ULE body, and X-valve. Right now i am looking to sell my old mag set up.

Anyone:IF anyone that reads this thread is interested let me know, I am only asking $275. It is a pretty nice set up, an old FActory custom used by the Jax Warriors when they used to play for airgun, Anyway let me know if you are interested, I can send pics via Email.
