Minnesota??

[Mechanic79]

So I'm looking at all of the stills from Operation Overlord and whatnot. I've been thinking this: Has anyone video recording to put something together? I've done some different military projects and other pieces for our Family Rediness Group. Has anyone done anything for Minnesota paintball?

No one has ever done video out there for the public. I think Splat Tag has done something though. The equipment is too expensive to get shot out of the hands of most people. Also consider the time it would take to edit everything, it would be consuming.

It would be cool if someone had the time, knowledge, equipment etc....
Just ask Chem, she gets shot at more when she has her camera on the field than when she has her E-mag!

... I think people like to shoot at things that don't shoot back!

Wow, yeah, I think that's a possibility. Someone made a butt stock rig for their DVD camcorder so they could use it like an M4 and record the action as if he was actually tracking something with it. I thought I could work on the paintball field. Maybe a bright green jersey and a three-foot halo or something would keep from them being used as an obstacle.

Or just give them a shield. Some of us wear bright green on the paintball field. We like to call it "referee camouflage". Orange works too! Hawaiian shirts, not too well..

So there is less than two weeks to the next Operation Overlord event in Buffalo. That could possibly be my first paintball experience. I suppose it might be too late to get in? My plan is to e-mail them in a bit.

Hmm, two weeks away. That could be a problem. I need to scale back a little bit. I bought three new markers since January, a plethora of HPA tanks and accessories and I just got back into Hockey on Thursday nights. I'm almost thinking that Sunday at the GBG will be my last "event" for the year. Mostly because the NHL is back on this year also!!

I've half a mind to sell a marker or two... But that's just a passing thought when I start to add things up. Then I look at my wife's mini-van that completely surpasses the cost of all of the toys I bought this year, not just paintball and hockey equipment and Wild season tickets. Now I know why I didn't buy myself a new truck this year...

Back on topic, Chem, Mech, what's the plan for Sunday? I was originally planning to arrive at ST very early and get a good parking spot, make breakfast out there and wait for things to get started.

Let me know if you're looking at letting an HPA tank go. I want to convert my A-5 if I get into playing a bit.

Nope, my dallara supermag project is still on the back burner...

my '75 corvette is on the front burner!

So i think it's warrented to take a small hiatus from paintball.

hey minnesota people and anybody around Worthington. I believe nate (field owner) is opening up the field on sunday for open play, Xball bronze is $43 a case. he runs the field for affordability (if this is even a word) for the players, not to make a huge profit. watch the NPUC forums http://www.ultimatecrown.org/phpbb/index.php for any updates, in the pb talk section.

I agree, LONG LIVE MINNESOTA!!!
