It was his very first time playing paintball, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable, safe, and excited. Everyone there was incredibly helpful, patient, and accommodating. They took the time to explain everything clearly, made sure the boys were prepared, and created such a fun and welcoming environment. You can really tell they care about giving kids (and parents!) a great experience. My son had an absolute blast and hasn't stopped talking about it since. He's already asking when he can go back! They truly made his birthday unforgettable, and I'm so grateful for how smoothly everything went. Highly recommend APS Paintball if you're looking for a fun, well-run, and memorable experience!

Nothing says team bonding quite like shooting your coworkers!…read more We took part of the Hot Tubs Plus crew out to Alliance Precision Sports today for some team bonding, friendly competition, and a chance to blow off a little workweek stress. Everybody had a great time! We got dirty, got bruised, and everyone got shot up just enough to make it a perfect day. We finished things off with pizza, plenty of laughs, and hopefully created a few new paintballers along the way. After a full day of running, diving, and taking paintballs to the body, now is when you really appreciate having a hot tub, cold plunge, and sauna to help loosen up sore muscles, relax, and recover for the week ahead. The facility was great, the staff treated us well, and the whole experience was a blast. We highly recommend Alliance Precision Sports for a company outing, birthday party, or just a fun day with friends and family. Work hard. Play hard. Recover harder. Hot Tubs Plus

They host these fun 21+ events quarterly, making it a great opportunity to experience something new. For just $15 per person or $20 per couple, you get a fun, low-pressure introduction to the sport in their studio, located upstairs in the historic Women's Club in downtown Bakersfield. From the moment we walked in, everyone was genuinely friendly, welcoming, and excited to share their passion for fencing. The club's president and director took time to introduce themselves, explain the foundation's mission, and talk about how they encourage people of all ages and abilities to discover the sport. It was especially inspiring to learn that their fundraising efforts help support their parafencers as they work toward competing in the next Olympic Games. Head coach Rudy and assistant coach Lucy were outstanding instructors. Their knowledge, patience, and enthusiasm made learning the basics approachable and fun, even for complete beginners. By the end of the evening, everyone was laughing, cheering each other on, and having a great time.

This review comes from a first timer, so my experience prob won't make any sense to any gun…read moreenthusiasts but- This place was super interesting. They have a long range for the bigger rifles but there were also people shooting pistols on the same range. They have barrels and a board you can put targets on. The range master (he's the guy in charge with the microphone!) gave clear instructions and safety was emphasized at all times. You can drive your car right to where you're shooting at the range. The pistol range was really cool because the targets make sounds when you hit them, instant gratification! They have a really cool western themed town area, husband said they have cool weekend events there, would definitely check that out. I 100% know this review is ridiculous, and husband probably won't take me back here, but I'd go again, now that I know how loud guns are!

Coming up from Los Angeles on a day trip, we came up here with very little expectations of…read moreBakersfield disc golf. We just wanted to play a new course that was challenging...well, we got what we were asking for. The thing that brought us in was the length of the course...lots of par 4s that stretched 500-600ft. As the name suggests, it's very flat and if you don't throw very far, you may want to kill yourself. As a course it's not that difficult. There's some technical shots to be made, but at the end of the day if you can stay low, controlled, and fly far, you'll do alright. The trickiest parts of the course are placed around the creek that runs through the course. I almost lost a disc on hole one cause I ran my upshot too far. You'll encounter the Kern River on later holes and it gives you some of the best views in the park. While we came on a cold winter day, the park felt like a picturesque fall day with brown leaves all over the place and barren trees. This course is definitely worth a road trip if you wanna experience something a little different and challenging.

Suicide Flats DGC is located in Hart Memorial Park on the extreme northeastern section of…read moreBakersfield. It is one of two courses located in the park (the other course being Shark Tooth Mountain). Suicide Flats is an 18 hole course laid out on mostly flat grassy land dotted with big and small trees that form variable obstacles. The course also does include some holes with water hazards. It's an extremely long course booking in between 7,000 and 8,000 feet with a few par 4 holes and the rest being par 3. Made it out on an early Sunday morning around 7 AM. With only one group in front of us (I had my old man along from the round), it was relatively quiet and laid back. The main downside to this early morning round was the extremely wet grass. According to some locals we talked to after the round, it's wet in the morning all year long...leaving me to believe that getting a dry round in only happens mid afternoon or during the hot months. But who wants to play here when it's 90 plus degrees? Navigating the course was a bit tough as I forgot to print out a map (used my phone to bring up a picture of the map) and some tee signs were missing. Tee pads were all concrete and with the wet grass made for slippery drives. Here's a few other things I noticed during my round : - If you have a good roller throw, it can come in handy here on some of the longer and more wooded holes. Although on mornings with the grass being so wet, I'm not sure rollers are that good of an option. - I was beyond done by the end of the round, being how the course is extremely long. If you decide to tackle both Suicide Flats and Shark Tooth Mountain in one day, be ready for a workout. Especially since I hear Shark Tooth is more a hike than a stroll in the park. There is camping nearby, so I would suggest maybe playing one course a day or at the very least spread out your rounds throughout the day. - For some odd reason, there are a lot of Farrel cats and peacocks wondering around in this park. - Water hazard holes could lead you to lose discs. Water on some (in particular Hole 6) are quite deep and murky. Lost a yellow blizzard Katana that was floating on the surface not too far from land...did not chance getting anywhere near the water since it looked scummy. In all, Suicide Flats is a challenging course that will force you to step up your drives and power out your throws to meet the demand of the distances on many holes. I will admit that this course wasn't too exciting to play. Very little as far as variance of elevation and layout of the course. If I didn't have my dad with me, I would have tackled Shark Tooth Mtn but for what it is, Suicide Flats is worthy of at least one round of play.
