Upcoming Field in Western Kentucky (New Update)

[Dallas]

How close is this to Louisville? I'm asking this because I go down there once or twice a year to visit family, and I have several cousins who play airsoft too. We tried to go to the Asylum earlier this year, but their schedule was abruptly changed.

Nice to see more places opening up in KY.

It`s around 3-4 hours i believe from Louisville, we started it up because of the lack of airsoft in Western Kentucky and Kentucky in general. Only places we could go were to Bad Karma and Springfield which are both 3 hour drives or so from here. We plan on fully opening in Spring 2013, that may change cause we are getting more and more building material and other items to add to the field and starting to work a lot more on the field. Actually just got back from working on a section of it. Also if you know of anyone down here or even close, cause we border Missouri and Illinois, spread the word to them because we are trying to see just how much interest we will get.

Alright guys been working the past few days on the field, we got a little tower up in the area that will soon be one of three compounds that will be on the field, also decided the box truck needed a new paintjob. We plan on starting construction on the compound tomorrow, today was just clearing out the general area for it as well as clearing some of the existing trails that will run to it.

First tower that will soon become the compound, that`s from yesterday so it`s a lot more cleared out now.

It looks like an alright place, but it's quite a few hours away from michigan...

I'm aware of this, I passed this by a mod before posting.

Alright so we took most the weekend off and today we just gathered some more pallets for the soon to be compound/outpost. We are hoping to finish most if not all of the compound by Saturday. These pictures are just all of the pallets we have for the compound as well as giving you a better idea of what will eventually be the compound, the ones you see leaning against trees are just mocked up from where we are seeing where we want the walls, also on the east side, or in most the photos, the right side, we plan on having another building there to give the compound some more places for hiding/defense also just to fill in the space. Also the tower is not 100% completed so ignore the bare sides on it, we ran out of plywood that day.

I guess you found the one guy who will care about a "kinda" field so many states away that most won't travel there just to play Airsoft. Just out of curiosity why post about a field so far away?

[kaponk]

Because as you may have seen one guy comes down this way every now and then. Also I know for a fact not everyone on here is from Michigan and considering where im at I have 3 states close by two of them only a few minutes away it doesn't hurt to post on here. I've managed to get a few people so far from here im just drumming up interest as we build the field.
