Midlife crisis ?

[KeenSniperJay]

Hi everyone, names Jason from West Yorkshire and I’m fairly new to airsoft, but the bug has really bitten me. Started airsoft few months ago (4 to be honest) and can’t get enough. I’ve already got myself an M4A1 Carbine with red-dot, Nuprol tracer, 100th anniversary Colt M1911, tactical vest, leg holster, fast helmet with goggles and face mask ?. 

 

Any recommendations for some decent airsoft site around Would be a great help. ?

Killhouse in Leeds is a good little close quarters map, and they just opened one on Lincoln too

I went down on opening night -cracking venue - much bigger than Leeds, but a totally different style of play needed, due to the set up there.
Definitely worth a visit if you get chance.

The word you are looking for is experienced or evolved into my final form ?

How so? I thought I'd seen the map layout on their FB and thought it looked quite similar?

It's a lot lighter than Leeds, for a start - so the light / dark areas aren't as much of a tactical issue as they are at Leeds.
For example, at Leeds, you need to be aware of your shadow - Zero need for that at Lincoln.
The lines of site are FAR longer than at Leeds - in fact in some places you can take shots nearly 2/3 of the arena.
Plus pretty much wherever you are in the arena at Lincoln you can be engaged from multiple directions.
There are no choke points to get through at Lincoln, which means both sides have completely unrestricted access to the full arena.
Leeds as a result can be a bit more measured in terms of pace - whereas Lincoln is much faster.
I thoroughly enjoyed playing at Lincoln - and love Leeds too ( I was there last night ? ) ...

I turned up a fortnight ago on a Friday with a friend and Neil and Tom were the only people in. It was dead, figured it would be like that for the rest of December

Lol. At 45 I am definitely half way through my time on earth. Can't really think of a better way of spend my time and money.

Mmm.  This isn't a rehearsal, and there's no redo button.  Seize the day and throttle the life out of it.

33 ? I've got guitar picks older than that ! Welcome to the madness ?
