    how far do you guys drive to play paintball?

    well as of today, my one and only local field in savannah has decided to close. seems as if there 'permit' (probably insurance related) has lapsed. so for the time being and with no hope in sight ....they are closed. needless to say this sucks badly. i will say that the turnout was pretty bad overall. having lived here a year, half the times i went out to play....they werent even open. dont know if its lack of overall interest in the sport for this area or overall lack of promotion. id say since the first one is dependent on the second one.....go figure. its a ski and dive show with a few spyders on the wall.

    i love playing the sport and it looks like i will be forced to do a little traveling. i think the nearest field is 45 minutes away and i dont even know what kind of setup they run. all rec or ? if anyone knows of or can recommend any good fields within an hour of the savannah area, let me know. i have been looking on the warpig site but im not sure its up to date.

      Closest indoor is about 30 minutes away, all other fields in the area are about 45.

      downwards, but I have this strange feeling
      that most people would take it as some kind
      of sexual suggestion rather than an attempt
      to infer one's final destination."

        During the semester when I'm at college I usually drive up to 2-3 hours to get to a practice or scrimmage. I have driven to Chicago for a tournament by myself, that was fun.

                  A little under 10 minutes to get to my local field. There are some other good fields about 45-60min away. And if I want to go up to Atlanta to play thats about a 1 1/2 hour drive and there alot of fields near Atlanta.

                    I live about 10 min from SC village. Fortunatley far enough away not to have to deal with the smell. And I could probably walk to Tombstone. It's nice being close, I can come home if I've got to use the bathroom.

                        Ive got a field that is about 30 minutes away, and another one that'll be about 1.25 hours.

                        Back in So. California, I'd play at SC Village, and erg. another place out towards Hemet.. which were both about 1 and a half hours away. There was an indoor too I belive that was only 30 mins away.

                        How far would I go? I forsee some plane ticket purchases in the future.
