    West of cpx. Get the directions in a sec

    The paint I used was on the smaller side. But overall looked and shot fine. Only issues i had shooting was due to wore out detents in the Geo I had just bought. I was double feeding. That problem is fixed and tested with leftover fox paint. Very respectable prices for the AVP game I was at. And they actually allow BYOP. They are not as nice as some of the other Chicago fields. But they also don't come with $90 a case of paint play. Fields are not new but we're very safe. One small village in the woods. Fortified woods area around. Then they have a junkyard speedball style field that is separate from the large wooded field. Also have a airball field we played on for a bit in the middle of our scenario. We got in a little trouble for that though. Only downfall I see for some is that there woods is woods. If it's been raining it's light swamp land in the center. With my gortex boots I stayed dry. But those in cleats had soaked feet since we would March right thru the swamp to gain the advantage.

    Idk that I'd fly in for the game. But more power to you. I'd love to go up to it. was a 4.5 hour one way drive for me. time dependent I will do it again for future big games. but I'm pretty swamped with work. And planning for me and the wife to do a 2 day scenario elsewhere a month later.

    The town is technically Millington, but as stated above the postal code and service is out of Newark. There is a hotel in Sandwich which is only 10 minutes from the field. The hotel is Timber Creek Inn and Suites

    This is the second Proving Grounds theme challenge type game for us to promote the classic game of paintball.
    Last time we did Tournament players versus Scenario players. That was great fun!
    What better way than a Mags versus Cockers theme! Mags and Cockers ruled for a solid 10 years!
    I of course am very stuck with mags.
    Love anyone close to be able to make it.
    Not sure what kind of turn out it will produce for a local Chicago event with a pretty tight theme.
    Could be 50, could be 150. We won't really now for a bit here.
    I"m gonna work on BadBoyz...since they are neighbors... and they can't be sissy's and all...LOL!

    oh man, this is my main field. Time to get my xvalve project wrapped up!

    Curious how the outcome will be - FOX is definitely mag-oriented given the history there, but there's also a large contingent of adept pump open players there that would likely go to cocker side.

    Did you play the AVP game? And if so what team were you on?
