Yep
that's right, the crazy
cheese heads in Wisconsin play
airsoft games all winter long. Just switch from standard
BDU's and
ACU's to some all white
camo, put some white tape stripes across your
airsoft gun to help break up the profile, and you are ready for some intense winter gaming. Our
Fairchild, WI air soft game field operates year round. It helps that the 2800 sq ft,
cqb/
cqc buildings are heated as well as the large shed located in the safe zone.
Re spawn points and times are typically adjusted so players can warm up for 15 min or so each time they are hit and called out. Safety awareness is critical as the trails and paths on the field have the potential to be rather slippery if we have fresh snow .
Depending on the temperature on any given winter game day we will decide if we will be keeping mostly indoors or on warmer winter days we use the whole field, building foxholes and ambush points in deeper snow. Dressing in layers for winter
airsoft games is super important so you can regulate your temperature and keep from sweating allot, as this will prematurely make you cold. Good waterproof nonslip footwear is essential to keep your feet warm and dry and I do not have to explain the purpose of the Nonslip soles on your boots.
We have many areas on the field with high grass and pine trees that make great ambush and cover spots for games all winter long. Another
benefit to complete snow cover on the ground during winter games is the use of
pyro type smoke that has to be lit with a match. Most of the year we do not allow this type of smoke to be used on the field due to the fire hazard it presents. In winter we do allow players to use smoke if there is 100% snow cover.
Really the winter air soft season can be just as much fun as the summer gaming if players are properly prepared for the season. Stock air soft guns seem to operate just fine outside in winter. Highly upgraded weapons will give you more trouble due to the already tight tolerances, however if you plan on playing inside the heated buildings your air soft gun will have to chronograph below 350 foot per second to be allowed inside for close quarters combat. Another nice thing about the heated
cqc house is you can use your gas blow back pistols all winter long. Find yourself with nothing to do this winter on a Sunday, check out our
airsoft game calendar and come on out and sling some
bb's at the
Airsoft Battle Zone field.
