do you think AGD should sponsor a pro paintball team?

well, the reason why you do not see warpfeeds much in the tourney circuit is because most tourney players do not like them and will not play with them..i do agree that airgun does need to ge the name out there in the tourney scene.. but, they do not need to spend alot of money to do so.. a example would be to find a amatuere team on the verge of making it into pro ranks.. outfit them with x mags (no warp feeds.. it seems tyo turn off most players) jerseys, and let them play.. most of rthese teams are footing their own money to travel and just receiveing guns and jerseys would be a great help to the teams..let them have a signature series gun in their honor.. give them a $ of the proceeds made from their gun to help with their travel expenses ect..i have been in this sport a long , long time.. the guns like the bob longs, matrix, impulse, angel ect, are not better than the x mag..a good team will show that.. plus, why do you think they timmy's and the angel sell so well.. because the amatuere teams watching their heros play ball are using the gun.. they in turn use the gun as well..it is just very basic marketing...pick up pgi magazine and see what the guys are using and then they go get one themselves..no real money has to be thrown at a team in order to this...and it will work..hell, the team bad company play with spyders.. tippman effect plays with tippmans and if you think that has not helped sales, your crazy.. they would not sponsor these teams otherwise..

The local sponsorships don't need to be big, or even anything at all. I see alot of people posting "can I use AO or automag in my team name?" Just let them put AGD on their jerseys, not in the team names, but on the jerseys. A good local team will do more for the mag in the small area they are in than a pro team would on the same group of people. I would be willing to bet on that(send me seven stickers as a sponsorship so I can put AGD on my teams jerseys, and I bet Utah's mag sales would go way up by the end of the summer) People like to hear about pro teams, but if they can see the team dominate and hear the markers fire first hand(or see someone snapshoot with a warp) they want that gear more than if they read about it. Since I put a warpfeed on my marker three weeks ago I have seen a huge desire for them, and plan to bring them into my store. People like to see products used, and if the team using the mags beats the team without them frequently and decisively the team without mags will start to look into buying them.
