Ok guys and gals, I know you've been awaiting news on this field. After many owners backing out on the deals Greg had been trying to make, and after a lot of stupid business problems, MATRIX AIRSOFT is OFFICIALLY returning. Greg has signed a 3 year renting deal with a man in Romulus and after he sees what Airsoft has to bring, I'm almost positive he'll sign an extension to the deal. I went to the plot of land today, and the owner currently has 77 acres of woodland and marshland. As of now Greg has been working hard to clear out as much as he can for playing. I think you guys will love this field. Here's a sneak peek at what's to come: imgur.com/a/P2x4XAs of right now, Greg and I talked about when the first game will be, and we're hoping to have it be in the first couple weeks of July sometime. I will keep you guys posted! This one is for real this time! I'm pretty happy for Greg that he now found a reliable owner and now we'll all have another field in Southeast Michigan in about a month!

I'll release more information at a later date. As of now, I'll say that he actually has permission to use the land, has the insurance lined up to run games, and now he and I are going to start working on making the field as good, or better than the Ypsi field. I'll release progress pictures along the way. I would say we will host maybe 1 or 2 games this year, maybe around October.

Are those woods in the background of the first picture a part of the property?

Are those woods in the background of the first picture a part of the property? Part of the property, also our backs are to more wooded area just like what is in front of us. We are walking into a big opening surrounded by woods. All I'll say is that the field is located roughly 10 minutes away from the old Ypsi field. I'm not going to release the exact location yet, just want to keep you all guessing.

Well this definitely makes me excited! I can donate some of my time (when it's available) to help build up structures if you want it.

I'm currently his representation on the boards, he doesn't ever get on a computer, so I'll get more information for all you guys as soon as I can.

This is local to me! I recognize the tree... third on the left.
No but in seriousness, I'm in Ypsi and would be happy to cough up some elbow grease and maybe some gofors once you start putting things together. I'm down to help in whatever capacity.
