Ok I am located in Waco Texas and was wondering some things. How far is it from here and how many people are usually there on non event days such as saturday and sunday. Thank you, Acousticboxo

non event days are pretty hit or miss. One thing to do would be to call the field, and see if there are any reservations. One time that Ive seen that is good for paintball is actually during airsoft weekends. There seem to be a higher porportion of walkons during that time.

It's about an hour and half from Austin, so what about another hour and a half to Waco. You should be able to make it in 3 hours. We drive 2.5 hrs and would drive futher if necessary to play here.

It is well worth the trip on scenario weekends. The best milsim games are only at Tactical.

You've seen my truck... it takes a long time to get anywhere. Cool

Come play one scenario event and you will be hooked. People drive a whole lot further than Waco, over and over again. It is a blast!

Every so often we (hometeams) put together a practice day if you will. Just a weekend where a bunch of us will come down an play recball and brush up on our skills. Keep your eyes open we usually do one during the early summer.

Of course camping out at the field is part of the plan as well so you get to meet and greet everybody.

The scenarios are worth it. Especially with the people and teams you play alongside at Tactical. I'm at Waco, too. Which part of Waco are you from? Baylor or the city?

I would suggest going anytime you can get a free weekend. Tactical is THE place to play.
