Red Fox Games Opens Its 162-Acre Paintball and Airsoft Park to More Neighbors
The Woodruff Times profiles Red Fox Games, a paintball, airsoft and gel blaster park on 162 acres near Woodruff that has new leadership and wants more locals to know it is here.
On August 9, 2025, The Woodruff Times profiled Red Fox Games, an outdoor paintball, airsoft and gel blaster park in the Woodruff area. Here is our summary of that reporting.
How it started: According to the Times, the park began about 30 years ago when landowner Vaughn Smith built a paintball course to help his property pay its own way. The paper reports that Smith placed the land in a conservancy, so it cannot be developed commercially.
New leadership: The Times reports that Smith, now 96, has retired from running the park. Bethany Hauf signed a long-term lease on the land and took over the business, encouraged by her sons, who had been customers. One of them helps her run it. The article does not give the lease terms or the exact date of the change.
What the park offers, per the article: 13 playing fields on 162 acres; paintball, airsoft and gel blaster play; night games with the fields lit; birthday parties; and themed scenarios such as mock hostage rescues. The paper says most players are between 12 and 30, though it describes the park as having something for all ages. The Times also reports the park's own claim that it is the fourth-largest course of its kind in the U.S. and tenth-largest in the world; we have not independently verified that ranking.
Events and plans: The article says Woodruff business Waters Tire has already held a company event at the park, that corporate events are welcome, and that a Veterans Day event was planned. Hauf says she wants to introduce the park to more residents of Woodruff and nearby towns and offer a screen-free way to spend time outdoors.
What the article does not say: It does not list prices, hours, a street address, a phone number or website, booking steps, or age and safety requirements. Contact the park directly for those details.
