ABOUT
The Badlandz was originally developed to be a practice facility for multiple time World Championship Team Aftershock. With that in mind, it was easy to accomplish our mission to draw other top teams to play against! Almost immediately we created a competitive vacuum in the Midwest. Most, if not all; the best players and best teams gravitated to the Badlandz. Other fields continued to focus on the full paying general public, Not Us. We wanted to remain committed to the competition player.
Without really even trying we began to attract walk-on players as well as private group outings. We appreciate the additional clientele (turns out the tournament players were recommending us & who'd know better?). So we turned the established local fields upside down and allowed walk-on's to bring their own paint! Since we can't stop with tournament players and walk-on players we guaranteed private group players a better paint price AND more games per day than any other local field.
So now that we cater to tournament players, walk-on players AND private game players, we get to sit back and watch all our competitors scramble and go to "Bring Your Own Paint" - Years after we did - OR Try to build one " Tournament Field" (we have 7 up most days) - They even try to get their staff to ramp up and squeeze in an 8 game day? We average 12 +.

The Badlandz is always trying to improve your paintball experience by bringing you 1/2 Price Dayz, Large Scale International Tournaments, Big Games, Special Events, Kidz Dayz, and Great Paint Pricing. Keep checkin out our site for more details.

So this Saturday or Sunday, Give the couch a break- Grab some friends or your family (or both) and head out to the Badlandz! There's no other paintball field quite like it!!!

5. If you are found to be selling paint on our property you will be asked to leave with your paint forever. Even if you try to say "the people that just handed you money are your best friends and this was a pre-arranged transaction". All we know for sure is that you handed them paint and they handed you money. That means you`re outta here!

6. It is not currently banned paint.

If you don’t like these rules, play somewhere else, cause we’re not changing them.

A little more on the B.Y.O.P. Rules:

Many paintball companies are in survival mode, it’s no secret that the entire industry is struggling. Most paintball businesses as you knew them only a year ago will not exist by this time next year. We like what we do and would prefer to keep doing it, so we’ve got to make the adjustments that will allow for that to happen.

Last year we all watched Fox River Games successfully add x-ball to their already good field. We also saw C.L.P stop allowing B.Y.O.P. unless you purchased it from one of their recognized dealers. CPX is continuing to increase the quality of their scenario games; all good business decisions for their respective companies.

While we were the first field around to allow you to bring your own paint and would like to keep it that way, there have got to be some controls in place.

Last year at the field we caught teams that receive discounted paint from their store sponsors selling it to other teams that do not get the same steep discount. We found team players reselling their paint to our walk-ons. There is a local distributor that is reselling paint to walk-in customers under the guise of “sponsorship”, the paint then gets to Badlandz and Fox and is sold in our parking lots by these “mini traveling dealers”.

Some stores will sell, to their walk-in customers, just slightly above cost in an attempt to keep volume up. One guy will buy 10 or 20 cases, then mark it up a bit and sell that in our lot to other walk-ons. Last year, in an almost unbelievable circumstance, we busted another local field owner’s son in our parking lot walking around with a case of XO trying to push it like some half baked crack dealer.

So while we LET you bring your own paint it doesn’t mean that we want to, or are willing to, concede our own paint sales so somebody that does not derive their living from this sport can just offset their playing expense.

If we don’t make money we cannot continue to provide you the services, the amenities, even the facility, that we do. By addressing this situation now, we are ensuring Badlandz continued success.

You think this costs a lot now, you should have seen what it cost before we opened. Even if you don’t like the Badlandz, be careful what you wish for...
