Whether you love paintball, airsoft, both, or you’re completely new to the game, Red Fox Games in Woodruff, SC is a great place to dive in. This family-friendly field is staffed with people who truly care about your experience — they’re always there to help, make your day fun, and keep things safe. Kidding Around Teen Contributor, Nathaniel, has gone many times and always felt welcome.
Did you know? Red Fox Games is the 10th largest paintball and airsoft field in the world, with 13 playing fields spread across 162 acres of beautiful nature preserve. It’s big, bold, and perfect for a full day of outdoor adventure.
What Red Fox Offers
Red Fox is open every weekend and offers a wide range of services to make your game day awesome. Here’s what you’ll find:
- All-day access to paintball and airsoft fields
- Rental gear and on-site technicians for both paintball markers and airsoft guns
- Ammunition and gear available for purchase
- Drinks available for sale (Occasionally they will deliver Dominos pizza to sell)

Food: They have drinks for sale but no food. However, there may be restaurants that will deliver during your 1-hour break. Domino’s has delivered to the field before.
Airsoft X: Red Fox also partners with Airsoft X, a passionate team that’s building a strong airsoft community in the Upstate. More on them below.
What Is Paintball?
Paintball is a high-energy outdoor game where you’ll use a paintball marker (or gun) to shoot small plastic balls filled with paint at the opposing team. When someone gets hit, they’re out unless they can respawn. It’s fast-paced, colorful fun with lots of movement and teamwork.
What Is Airsoft?
Airsoft is a bit more tactical. It’s similar to paintball but uses small 6mm plastic BBs fired at varying speeds. Players are out when hit — unless the game mode allows respawning. Think strategy, speed, and communication to tackle various challenges like capture the flag.
Who Will Enjoy Playing at Red Fox Games?
Anyone who enjoys a fun struggle will love paintball and airsoft. You’ll be outside in the dirt, heat or cold, faced with various scenarios given by the referees. These challenges usually involve two teams on opposite sides trying to eliminate each other or complete an objective. You don’t have to come with a team; all players on site will split up. It’s totally ok to come by yourself or with just a couple of friends.
It’s important to listen to the referees. They keep the games fair and fun.
My Experience at Red Fox Games
I have gone many times for airsoft and a few times for paintball, and every single time, the Red Fox staff and the Airsoft X team have been extremely helpful and patient with everyone.
I love how the community is so supportive of new players, whether they’re just getting into the hobby or just visiting for a fun day with friends. On multiple occasions, I’ve seen experienced players hand off their high-end airsoft guns to brand new players just so they could enjoy the game even more.
Meet Airsoft X
Airsoft X launched in early 2025 and now partners with Red Fox Games to bring consistent, fun, and welcoming airsoft gameplay to the Upstate. The team is always ready to help new players, answer questions, and keep things moving smoothly on game day.
They’ve already grown significantly, offering special weekend events and night games. Red Fox occasionally partners with AOSC (Airsoft of South Carolina). They also provide a detailed guide for beginners, which is definitely worth checking out if you’re just getting started.
Meeting the staff at Airsoft X has always been a pleasure. Their dedication to growing the sport and building a strong community is something I really admire.
Thanks to Airsoft X for providing some of these photos! It’s very hard to get them while playing the game!
What Players Are Saying
Many airsofters have shared how much fun they’ve had at Red Fox — from new game modes to friendly, respectful staff who always listen to player feedback.
I can personally say Airsoft X has been a blast, and I always enjoy my time playing airsoft with them. The staff is committed to creating an environment where everyone feels welcome and part of the action.
If you’re even thinking about trying airsoft or paintball, I highly recommend giving it a shot at Red Fox Games with Airsoft X.
Getting Started: Renting vs. Buying
I recommend renting your first few times to get a feel for what you do and don’t enjoy. If you rent and realize this isn’t your thing, $30–$60 is a small price compared to buying your own gear.
Once you know you enjoy the sport, you can buy your own gear attuned to your playstyle. For airsoft, I recommend using Evike and checking out the guide from Airsoft X.
