Full description and what we offer
Mad Cow Paintball sits on 40 dedicated acres of a family farm near Cedar Creek, just outside Louisville. The operation started in July 2002 and has grown into a 7-field complex run by a family that's owned the land since 1864. Three adult kids help run the day-to-day, with plans for one to eventually take it over. It's genuinely a mom-and-pop business—they're clear about that, and they run it that way.
Standard Paintball ($50 rental, ages 10+) - Uses .68 caliber paintballs (the industry standard) - Hits feel like an elastic band snap to a bee sting - 3 hours of play time - Rental includes: marker, face mask, 3000 PSI air tank, 500 paintballs, free air fills all day, pod pack (if available)
Low Impact Paintball ($50 rental, ages 8+) - Smaller paintballs, 68% less force than standard - Designed for first-time players and kids - Feels like a soft pinch, not a sting - Same 3-hour package as Standard
Gellyball ($30 for 2 hours, ages 5+) - Electric launcher shoots 8mm water orbs - No mess, lightest impact of the three - Feels like getting flicked repeatedly - Groups of 6+ players, must reserve and prepay
All rentals include entry fee, marker, mask, air tank, 500 rounds, unlimited air fills, and pod pack. Rentals must be booked at least a week in advance.
All fields are on flat terrain near Turkey Creek. The air-ball fields operate only during non-frost weather.
Mad Cow runs a field-paint-only operation. No BYOP (bring your own paintballs). They keep inventory in climate-controlled storage, selling fresh stock (usually within a month of manufacture) to ensure it breaks cleanly every shot.

Referees are trained, mostly adults with other jobs, many are CPR and first-aid certified. Insurance requires refs on every field. Most are experienced players; newer refs pair with veterans. Tipping refs is appreciated and encouraged.

They're developing a small pro shop to stock markers, gear, and common items. If they don't have something in stock, they can order it. This keeps players from needing to shop elsewhere for maintenance and upgrades.
Mad Cow doesn't believe in "Customer Appreciation Discount Days." Their position: customers should be appreciated daily, not once a year. They price fairly year-round and reinvest profits into field maintenance and staff.
Their mission: "Become the largest and best paintball operation in Nebraska, complete with scenario games, tournaments." They see other fields as allies helping grow the sport, not competitors.
