FE love the zoom-cam set up its ingenious. Might be picking up some newer helmet cams soon. Think I lost my tachyon in the Tornado.

I play more now than I ever did. Even back in OMHW days. I play now mostly MAGFED paintball do a lot of local general and command duties. But still find time to to pick up my TPX or MAGFED Phenom and hit the bush and stalk and shoot peeps.

Paintball is really what you make of your local scene. I bring one new player with me every game. Now we have a scene good enough to support 3 local woodsball fields, 3 local shops.

Thanks guys, glad you liked it. Tippmann said it was too long for their viewers, so I made them a custom short version with their branding last night. 

I based it on their "try paintball now video" which was good, but as a guy with a TV/film production background it felt like what a creative team "thinks" is paintball... It just didn't give the "feel" of woodsball to me. 

I think this version really captures the FUN of the sport... 



Too bad you guys don't live around here, as you could come join us in the woods... We play every month in the fall/winter/spring.

Looking at selling all my guns and gear, time to move on.

Was fun, enjoyed it, but the usual antics drove the sport from our area.
Saw you there!!

Anyway,  love the footage FE, I wouldn't be getting rid of all my gear if I had a group of guys to play with who don't just play tournaments. 


Move out of that crazy cheese-head state of yours and move closer to me or EE! Problem solved!

And this is why I never sell on PBN....

.
Seems to be common all over these days. Had three seperate inquires on parts I had for sale on both MCB and AO and all of them flaked.
 
And regarding OP. Too darned cold to play PB this past week. I gave up on anything under 30* anymore. More aggravation than its worth.

I was invited for the annual Newark Urban Turkey fight this past Sunday, I did not go because I did not feel like driving to jersey ( I do it Monday through Friday) and I had to get Christmas stuff up. Hopefully in two weeks we play in East Quogue. My wife wants to be game photographer and get the picts on her FB.

I went a couple of weekends ago to the local field and had a blast.  I need to start going more frequently.

So I had my 33rd event on Saturday at my private field... What an amazing time! Hard to believe that this will be our 7th year playing paintball behind my house...

The guys all chipped in and we got Henry a helmet cam. So now we have the "HenryCam" along with my footage. And the ZoomCam was picking up some amazing footage this weekend. 

Check it out if you are into that kind of thing... The bloodbath at the beginning of this video is pretty crazy. I think it is some of the best footage I have ever captured on film during a game. 



Let me know what you think.
