Hi
i know this must get repetitive but im interested in starting to play paintball. i have been looking at some different gear and guns but havent done my safety course yet so wont be purchasing quite yet but i was just wondering if it was possible to talk with someone or go see a field close by and get a better idea of gear and what i will need and just better idea of the whole deal.
just not sure where is a good place to go or who to talk to
i am living in warwick qld

when did the Anti-Bunker Monkey Fan Club Start?

Ok then the question is are you interested in Bushball or Sup Air ??

Samford has regular training days for both.
All the info here -> http://www.billspaintball.com/vb3/showthread.php?t=10040

this would propably be the closest field that has regular days that most of the guys attend. Best to do your safety course and get a licence as this will take some time, but in the mean time you can always hire/borrow gear until all the paperwork gets done.

Drop out for a look, ask some questions and work out what suits you.

Hope to see you there ..

:thumbsup:

thanks for all the info .. i am looking to get into Sup Air but wouldnt mind checkin out bush as well.
i think i will head up to samford one weekend and check things out work most sundays but will just sort something out.
Also another q with the 4play tournament held at samford is it possible to hire gear to take part in the event as i wont have my licence in time for the first one . i have a few mates that are also interested and were thinking of putting a team in. obviously not real experienced but gotta start somewhere

Hey mate!!!:thumbsup:

I too am a Samford boy.

As for the 4play stuff mate, give either Gav or Tim a call at Paintball Australia. They are the best source of information and advice regarding the tourney, what you can and can't do in terms of hire and when each event is going to be held and where each round will be.

As for you working most Sundays, Samford is also open on Saturdays. Get on here and check both Bushball and Scenario and Tourney threads for the next Samford events. There is usually a heads up a good couple of weeks in advance.

Post up regularly mate, come out and say hi when you get a chance, and keep in mind that we have a couple of guys who come from Toowoomba way, so if it is logistically viable, contact Camo and see if there is anything you guys can do about carpooling.
Save as much money as you can for actually playing or paying for Paintball man, and less on getting there.:thumbsup:

Again, welcome...
