So I already have a bachelors degree in fish and wildlife. But things have been hard to find a job. SO I decided to go to paramedic school in either salem or bend. Maybe euegene, we'll see. But because of that I'm going to try and make every single possible game I can with the team. I'm single now and have gotten over my ex fiance leaving me and I feel like I can do anything and I'm ready to. I love paintball. I just want a job I love that can allow me to play more.
I just had to get that off my chest

Do you want to learn to hunt and fish??? lol I'm actually pretty good I don't want to brag or nothing.. but without any training or anything jsut learning to shoot I took a 6x6 last year at 545 yards with one shot.. in the neck and yes I am considering salem because it is closer to the team.. there is just some differences in the programs.. like salem might make me be associated with a department and bend doesn't which is a big factor.. but I would still try to make a lot of trips back to play no matter what!

If I had a vehicle that would get 30+ MPG unlike my truck that gets 10MPG, I would go to Bend. I'm not sure of COCC's classes are but its a nice area to live. Great summers and at the intersection of Deshutes River and Reed Market Road, great Tubing. Its only about 110 miles from Bend to Lebanon taking 20 so about 1.5 hours and only about 1/3 that from Salem. I have quite a few friends down that way and lived in a small town, about an hour south in Crescent, for 9 years.

I would recommend Chemeketa's program. Most of my FD buddies went thru CCC's program. Its been a long time since Ted and I went thru the fire program there, but overall it still is the place to go for fire/EMS.

Nice kill! If you end up in Bend there's a fair amount of scenario and woodsball around here, games just about every weekend especially in the warmer months, 2 established scenario fields and plenty of killer public land fields too.

I used to hunt the coast range alot but there is just too many people so i switched to the cascades. My brother hunts the coast range and swears by it but I keep telling him that Ive gotten 4 elk and he hasn't gotten any. although one of those that i got was out of the coast range.

Yeah.. the coast range is tuff. real tuff... and there is a lot of people.. but I seem to do pretty good. I think of it as a challenge... East side is easy, but I like it better.
I consider myself pretty lucky. shoot my record is pretty good. lets see.. I'm only 25 and I have taken... 5 elk ( only the one huge bull), one antelope, and shoot deer lets see... 5 mule deer east side. and i can only think of 3 black tail on the coast... hmm thought it was more then that...
not trying to brag or anything I just run across people older then me who have never even killed en elk so I consider my self really lucky to be so lucky LOL
I'm trying to take up bow hunting but my bow was stolen so I have to start all over with that.
