    i love it when people who live in death valley assume that everyone who lives in the snow belt hates cold weather. I LOVE IT, I LOOK FORWARD TO IT, I WOULDNT LIVE WITHOUT IT. i look forward to playing rec ball in the snow as opposed to the indoor field thats closer. i turned down a transfer to san diego cuz they dont have lake effect snow storms like cleveland does. no disrespect to those of you who live life continually sweating in the sun...but i'm a freeze baby.

      I love snow, I'm moving to Seattle cause I miss the gloomy rainy weather and nearby snow ... but living in the sunstates does have its advantages. Such as it being BEAUTIFUL during the spring/winter (yes the summers are ungodly hot though) ...

      Its a tradeoff.... but I'm not complaining, I love it here but Im a Chicago kid, I gotta move back to that kinda weather.

      Sincerely,

        My field uses Polar Ice field paint, and it was horid. I was chopping on my first shot, or the paint was bouncing. The shell wasn't consistant, and it led to horid results.

        Everyone was choping or bouncing. It realy sucked.

          Severe works well in the cold because its hard as hell and doesnt get brittle.
          Also i had luck with inferno and team colors.
          Good luck, and turn down your velocity below 260 when in the cold too.

            I HAD to oil my barrel when I had my carbine (a generic brand ceramic barrel) or the balls would go all over. I did this with WD40 too I know its bad practice but it meant a lot(dont do this to your mag) I had a little can with me that I would spray down the feed port (when the grip slides forward) every once in a while. It made darts, it was great, except for that extra hassle.
