how far do you guys drive to play paintball?

[xtreme paintball]

Well, since my local field/store closed, the closest place I know of to play is about 3 hours away.

Due to this, I only get to go to their big games about 2 or 3 times a year(yeah, I don't get to play a lot).

After I head off to school on the other side of the state, the closest field that I can find online is Tri-City Paintball in Richland, WA; about 3 hours away.

Man, I hope I end up finding one closer.

The closest field is about 5 minutes away. Sadly the turnout usally sucks. The fields are nice, all grass, air ball, hyperball and a big spool field. But that doesnt make up for playing 2 on 2 heh. Theres also a new field that just opened up about 15 minutes away. Other then those 2 its about 30-45 minutes.

I live here in the med center in houston, almost DT, and every field si about 45-60 mins away. The furthest places I have played would be in San antonio, parents live there, and the AO Austin meet next weekend.

Like 25 minutes without traffic to our home field, anywhere up to 2 1/2-3 hours to scrimmage other teams at like roughneck and top gun.

[Lopy-slopy]

15 minutes if there is no trafic. Up to an hour or more with trafic. (Hey, it toronto trafic)

[robertjuric]

Either 30mins for one field, 1 hour for another, or 1 1/2 hours for another field.

I live in Savannah as well, I currently drive just under an hour to play.

Which field in town is closing? I've never played any of the "local" fields.

Unfortunately most of the fields within an hours drive are really hit or miss as far as turn out goes.

I think us Juneau Alaska guys pretty much got everyone beat as far as distance/time goes, we don't have a local field so we play woodsball in an area that nobody seems to care too much. We're very careful to keep it clean though.

Otherwise to drive to a "real" field we are looking at a 6 hour ferry ride then a 2 hour drive up to Whitehorse, Canada or a 3 day ferry ride to Bellingham, Washington and then a drive to wherever the nearest field is (probably Seattle). Juneau has no road out so we either have to take the ferry or fly.

I was pretty sure that there was a field in Anchorage.... but never been there so don't know for sure

[akscubainst]

Anchorage is 5 hours by ferry and then an 800 mile drive.

How far? Closest field is 30 minutes to Ithaca But I generally just work there.
Most of the times I play at EMR Paintball and that's about 1 1/2 hours in PA.

But I do travel across the country occasionally. Gone to NYC area (many fields), Canada, Tenn., Mass., Mich., et cetera. So far besides my annual Tippmann World Challenge 10 hour trips, Tennessee was a 13 hour trip. Longest I've driven so far.

Of course, I only drive. Won't fly. Not afraid to fly, I just don't want the hassle.

THe closest fields to me are 30 to 45 minutes away.
