For a second year in a row Hit Green will be in full attendance at Commando paintball field's "Paintball Extravaganza"! Last years event was a total blast. We had all 7 team members there but expect about 20 this year. Our team has been growing by leaps and bounds!
The Paintball Extravaganza is all about having fun and Commando paintball field always keeps it affordable and interesting. It's a $35 entry fee and they allow BYOP! The price even includes all day air. They have a bunch of new field modifications from last year including a new three story castle and some new foxholes/trenches.
Last year they let us camp out on a near by lot of grass and saved us lots of cash by avoiding campground fees and hotel stays. We are driving up Chester's parents RV. Money Mark also has a Pop-up camper we are pulling up too. Several others are bringing their own tents and camping gear. Sounds like we will be making a weekend out of it!
My Tippmann X7 is done and awaiting a heavy scenario test session! This should be a good chance to test it out. I'll post pics and description of it in a later post. Several of the guys on the team now are shooting an A5 or X7 for scenario/woodsball play.
Well until then... Hit Green!

About Hit Green Paintball Team
We are the Hit Green Paintball Team from Central USA. We play mostly woodsball but also play a tournament at least once a month to keep us limber =) We mostly seek out large scenario events and try to recruit others to join us. We have players all over the United States, some in Canada and a few in Mexico. Everyone with a good attitude and respect for others is invited to join our team.
Our concept is simply 'Open Source'. With that said, we are always seeking people passionate about paintball and want to contribute to the sport by joining our team. We try to make a positive impact and help keep paintball a well thought of sport. So many news stories emerge from all over the country about people abusing paintball and committing vandalism with paintball equipment. We are trying to completely counter that with education and an alliance of mature minded players. Please help promote this sport as a great way for people to have fun and get exercise.
If your interested in joining our team we would be interested in hearing from you. Signing up is free and a great way to meet other paintball players. We encourage each player to get involved at their local fields by helping out and becoming well know in their area as a leader in promoting paintball as a positive sport. Community involvement is the key to maintaining this sport on the up and up.
Several team members are looking for more players in their area of the country to join them in playing tournaments and scenarios. Several other areas have groups large enough to form a sub team. We encourage this and help organize these teams. When we all get together at larger events we can all play together then.
Requirements to join mostly include a positive attitude and an oath to uphold the image of paintball. We also encourage everyone to have their own equipment and transportation of some sort. We do however have a few people that just rent when they come out to the field and several others who aren't old enough to drive yet. Thats fine with us as long as your a mature minded person.

Paintball Tournaments This Summer
We are still scheduling events to attend this Summer. Ya, Summer is almost half over yet we are still searching for events. As we add people to the team, they want to play events in their areas. Several new players are more of a "tournament only" type players and we will be accommodating that. Most want more affordable events to play and get to know the other new players they will be playing with.
Last months "Dogs of War" 24 hour scenario event at Challenge Park Extreme went very well. 24 of Hit Greens' players showed up and we all had a blast. Several players now have night vision and we were able to play after dark taking many of the objectives for the team. Each event we goto like this seems to show how much more organized we are getting. The event overall, didn't have as good of a turnout as I had expected, but we all still had a great time.
Last weekends 5-Man trophy dash at Stalker Paintball Field in Lyndon Station(by Wis Dells), Wisconsin was a great time too. Not a huge turnout there either but still a great time. Their field is better than most fields that host large sanctioned events. Stalker is an awesome field with huge Ultimate Air bunkers. And for a team of Football player sized guys, its heaven sent. There prices are fair and the staff is excellent. No we aren't sponsored by them, just really impressed with the place =) We will be attending a lot more events there in the future. It's a bit of a drive for us but well worth it.
We will be posting about more events as we schedule and attend them... Hit Green!
