Farmer's Ultimate Paintball !

Farmer\
Farmer's Ultimate Paintball has many different versions, so we will show you our most popular one.

This is Farmer's Ultimate Paintball V.2 Capture the Flag, the most popular of Farmer's Ultimate Paintball.

This game is played in a cornfield surrounded by trees, at least thats the ideal play field. You can play in an open field or a meadow, but then again, you want to be covered by something when playing, so a cornfield is ideal.

Here we go!

This picture is the ideal play field for the game, but make sure you don't play in someone else's fields, because i'm pretty sure thats illegal, yeah, so have approval or make sure that you or another player owns the property.

What you need to play the game:

-30 or so people (players) of 10+ age
-1 or 2 referee's to watch the game and call out players when hit
-Paintball marker and equipment
-paintball marker
-hopper
-air tank
-mask
-any additional equipment
-one flag (a rag preferably, because if you have the country flag, its gonna be kinda odd, I don't know the laws on the flag, but I don't think you can shoot it, even with a paintball gun, you could also use a bandanna)
-paintballs - the amount is up to you, and how much you want to use
-three posts - flag poles will do, or any other posts/stakes you can find, just something that can hold a bandanna/flag
-walkie talkies (will be used to communicate between players) optional
-skills!!!! not really, no experience is necessary

and last but MOST DEFINITELY NOT LEAST

A cornfield or other field with or without trees surrounding it, depending on what you have, and what you like, but trees make it way more fun. Also, if there is any other obstacles like towers, or even tractors or farm equipment to hide behind in the field that would be great!!!! The way you set up the field is pretty much up to you and your players.

So lets get started!!!!

I agree, great backup or even sniper weapon.

yep.

I assume this would only be allowed in smaller private cornfields? Getting the corn covered in paint, nontoxic or not, can't be okay with the Agricultural Safety Board.

Yeah, it might be amazingly impractical but still sounds like a ton of fun.

I have a policy of not caring how old posts are. If I find something interesting, or have an opinion, I say it. I wonder why it is that people think that all the posts must be new to merit attention.

if u can afford a proto a decent hopper should be used.

I have a proto pmr7... LOVE IT!!! Slap a dye rotor on it and a carbon fiber tank on it and ur set. To the corn field idea, for a ditch effort to have some great fun with some friends go for it!!! Yeah, sniping wont work to well in this situation, but staying on the outskirts away from the action is absolutely no fun at all. Happy Paintballing!!!

Hate to play devils advocate here and rain on everyones parade. But I gotta judge from the picture of the cornfield provided. 1. I hope for y'alls sake that the leaves on those corn stalks are soft and pliable, because paintballs have a tendency to break on any plant they touch (thats why i hate playing in texas' mesquite forests). And 2. And judging from the picture, it would be nigh impossible to "snipe" from the treeline. The accurate range of a paintball gun is about 35 yards or less, add into consideration how dense the cornfield is, and i'd say any "snipers" will be disappointed. Personally, I'd prefer a wheatfield or cow pasture to play paintball in

okay, sorry, I'm just going from experience and offering my observations, the last thing i want to see is a bunch of people dislike the sport because of environment.

I think your idea is simple but sweet. I have a plantain field in Nicaragua. We will be playing there May 19th in the world's first ecologically friendly paintball game in the world. The paintball pellets provide the nutrients to the soil, and YES, the paintball pellets are edible and biodegradable. Thanks again for the game idea. I will work on incorporating it there....but with slingshots.

That sounds like a good idea, actually. Good luck!

best idea for paintball except there's not a lot of big corn fields around unless you live in like iowa or something!

my uncle owns a cornfield next to a highway and me and my friends/ my uncle and his friends started playing there, well the cops where called since they had report of paintballs breaking on the sides of cars since if you miss and you shot at someone toward the highway well it would probally hit a car
