Hello I may have use of 50 acres of woodland and was wondering about trying to start up a walk on zone The woods are situated in the Medway area of kent close to the M2 and M20 There is a place to get teas coffee's and hot food maybe I'm just looking for input at the moment The site is bare woodlands at the moment but I'm Sure I could get some Bunkers Machine-gun nest and fox holes and such.
Any suggestions welcome
Regards Bob

Thanks I have tried before but some one told me they could play Paintball all day for a fiver + 100 balls My suggestion is a site where to start with people can bring there own guns and gear to play but all use paint supplied by the site Some one said he pays £5.00 for 100 balls where as I had suggested say £30 for a box of 2000
My mate who owns the woods is ex Royal Marine Commando and has a Digger Dumper and has offered to do some ground work I'm just looking ot see if there would be any interest But thanks for the reply.
Cheers I have a Tippmann 98 custom with Long Flatline Commando stock and cyclone feed system and an A5 M16/4 mash up when I get it working Lol Ciiao

Access to a digger is useful, you might want to offer to pay for fuel or a day's free paintball as he's helping you out.
Buying paintballs in bulk eg. a pallet's worth or two at a time, will reduce the cost per box to you; you pass on costs of site insurance, wood, nails, gas, rope, markers, hoppers, cylinders, netting, website etc to the punter.
Have a look at other sites in the area which offer rental paintball to get an idea of site charges.
For rentals, £5 per 100 paintballs is pretty good. Of the sites near where I live, Cheshire, most charge £6 or more.

No it is just behind the services on the M2 I used to work with the owner on the Railways he has a night club House/Kentish Barn and had 50 acres of woods doing nothing and to be honest it was his idea as My cousin his neighbour myself and a few friends used to play in the woods by Dover castle firstly with Nelspots but prior to nelspots we had these 6 shot revolvers Lol anyway we eventually were allowed to play by order of the Colonel of the Barracks but my cousins neighbour got really funny when My cousin and I bought Tippmann guns and ditched our ( smk's) God what rubbish they were So we stopped playing they took there balls home but we did have 2-3 great games where our Guns were trouble free onlky trouble was I bought 2000 Draxus Paintballs and thought £65 pounds was a good deal I know now mind But we had been paying £10.00 for 500 cheap paint that har brittle stuff that either bounces or breaks in the gun
Anyway I had no idea they play paintball at Detling I did play at Arrows in the Wind a couple of years back against the American Air Force from Cambridge that was good cost £30 to play and £25 pounds for 2000 rounds You had to buy their paint
Nice to hear from you thought have a great weekend have you looked on you tube there are some old videos of Paintball from 1987 when we used Brass Eagles Nelspots Bushmasters and such so funny Cheers
