If I had been in your shoes I would have stood up and yanked all the wipers out of their shoes right there on the spot. Dragged them kicking and screaming to the refs and then lit up the refs verbally for allowing the type of play illustrated. After the verbal lashing I would have stopped the game and taken the refs back to the staging area and personally seen to a meeting between the refs, myself, the scum bag players, and the owner or manager of the field.
I will not go into a long soliloquy here about how reffing should be done on woodsball courses. I will not even go into how bad that field seems. The only universal truth is this...

The bad fields never last long.
As soon as a field opens that is better then that field will close down. That is the way it is. That is why when I am looking for other fields to play at the first thing I look at is how long have they been open.

Unfortunately, your theory falls short on this field. It has been open for close to ten years, and there are at least a dozen good fields within a hours drive of this one. It has however, had three different owners I believe.

Reminds me of when i went to Alabama for 2 weeks to spend some time with my dad, had the same problem. Wish I could say I handled myself as well as you, I just kept shooting until they decided to call themselves out. They looked good in all of that orange paint. lol The trick is to get them in the gogles, eventually they won't be able to see.

wow i cant beleive that one ref kicked any of thouse players off the field for good. i think u should write a letter to them and tell them to hire better refs and how these kind of actions put a bad image on our awesome sport of paintball. u did all u could do good job.

True SR, so true. Wouldn't it be nice if you could just shoot whoever gets under your skin? Let them have the first shot, then open up on them.
