ok, so i play at this little local woodsball field and it was always free and he'd fill your c02 no cost (you could make a donation if u wanted to. which i always did) anyways, all of a sudden he started charging $5 a player to come. and i dont have a problem with it cuz i mean u gotta make some money if people r using ur stuff right? well theres a group of kids at my school sayin how their never gonna go to clarinces (the field i play at) because they say hes an a$$ for charging all of a sudden. Ive tried to tell them that $5 and BYOP and $1 cO2 refill is awesome but they wont listen. do you guys have any suggestions as to what i should say to them?

EDIT:i just realized this should probably be in the field info part could someone move it? sorry

just let them play at the other field, if its much more expensive then theyll prolly go back, if its not then they might as well just stay at the better field.

**Skate and Paint** · February 27th, 11:45 AM

at the other field u have to buy their paint and it costs $12 per player

**sumsimpleracer** · February 27th, 11:55 AM

tell them you guys have it easy, like the closest field to me would be pbshooters its 15 entry, and 70 a case of paint (no byop) so just to play you need to pay 85 dollars

**666paintballer** · February 27th, 12:07 PM

tell your friends to stop being cheep. my closest feild is 25 entry byop. and there are indoor feilds i go to that are double that price and your have to buy their paint. If your friends dont wanna spend a measly 5 bucks to play, then there not ready to play paintball

Consider all of you lucky. To play at a good field, I have to pay 130 bucks

**oCRAZYSPRAYERo** · February 27th, 01:13 PM

Get them to go another field and have them see how much it costs compared to the one that charges 5 bucks.

**fenix_freak** · February 27th, 01:19 PM

the closest field around here is REALLY expensive...20 bucks for entry, 100 bucks for a case of paint (no byop) and 10 bucks for a co2 refill...went there one time...havent gone back since

but 6 bucks plus whatever the cost of your paint isnt bad at all....i just pay for paint though so i got it easy...me and my friends have our own fields and our own fill station...when the fill station tank is empty we just all chip in and get more

**SCBaller13** · February 27th, 01:47 PM

Geeze. I got it easy.
At practice Kick'n Paintballs are $35.
and there are not field or air charges.

**(dr)** · February 27th, 02:05 PM

tell them to visit any other woodsball field. they all seem to have the highest prices and the worst facilities. tell them to stop being stupid and take advantage of the opportunity to play woodsball at a low price.

**tippy98cuser** · February 27th, 02:34 PM

i'd let him find out how much $$$ he is gonna waste by going to the other field

OnTheMatBaller · February 27th, 05:01 PM

tell them i play 15 to get in, 10 for all day air, and 85+ for paint.

**Snip3r** · February 27th, 06:25 PM

LMAO people that think that is expensive dont need to play paintball at all...even if it is woods

**toXic** · February 27th, 07:21 PM

well, they will come back enentually. I have to pay 15 fpo and drive 2 hours to play at an actual field.

**chris_13** · February 27th, 07:33 PM

man at prices like that i would go there i pay 10 bucks for all day fills and 7 bucks for field fee but any ways let them go to a more expensive field hope fully its a bfp (buy fields paint) so they pay alot just for paint they will come running back

**txaggie08** · February 27th, 08:05 PM

dang dude if he was charging that little to play on his field, not only would i be paying him, illd be freakin volunteering to help him maintain it. Lee'em go to another field, theyll come back tails running soon enough

jmz12341 · February 28th, 11:31 AM

they should just be happy, they dont realize how good that price is, at the price he charges the price you pay in a week or two, i would probably spend in a day or two.

**austin.1** · February 28th, 11:44 AM

my field is $20 entry including all day air. BYOP but you can buy paint at the field if you want, they have a few brands and it is priced reasonably.

i play pump, so i never buy a case, just 500 balls for about $15-$23. sometimes i buy it at the field.

**SmokeM** · February 28th, 03:00 PM

$5 is dirt cheap. Heck, unless he owns the CO2 tank (price approx $200) its costing him $15 a month just in rent and $50 to refill (50 lb cylinder, about 34-40 lb effective CO2).
Seriously, I operate a private friends only woodsball field - no charge, BYOP, but do charge $3 or $4 for fills depending on size of CO2 tank just to break even on my rental costs of the CO2 tank. I do it so I have a cheap and free place to play, but you need some cost recovery for the expense of running the tank - minimum. That doesn't even count the other costs my brother and I incur.

You have the right attitude and I'm sure the other will learn soon enough.

Best of luck - Smoke

**freakpizzaboy** · March 1st, 09:49 AM
