Please Convince Me to Play Paintball...

Wear baggy clothes and a cup, that will help keep the impact pain way down. Not counting the 3 foot hit (bad form on a rec field), it doesn't hurt more than a few moments, like banging your funny bone, it goes away before the next game or sooner.

NOW GO OUT THERE AND PLAY!!

hehe, haven't been here for a while.

ANYWAYS!! I was playing that day with Griffin, the field was kind of strange because they kept saying if we took off our masks outside of the 'designated area' we would be instantly ejected from the rest of the day, but they said nothing about a chrono. I had to ask where the chrono was because they didn't say anything. Masks are useless if the guns shooting 99999+ fps.

The kid that nobody likes had, like griffin said, a Tippmann 98 with a LP kit, e-bolt, some purple anodized alluminum to look good, i think it was a teardrop barrel, and a 68/4500 nitro tank. This kid shot me in the chest from about 25-35 feet and it left a welt, and hurt like hell. That gun was louder than anyother gun i've ever heard, seriosuly. It was like shooting without a barrel, but made this big suction noise like he was shooting tennis balls or something.

what if you weren't ever scared or nervous when you played? how boring would that be? freight turns into adrenaline quickly when you accept that it's a sport and that people aren't "out to get you".

Heck, I never got really freaked out, nervous, or scared when I started playing my first game. I tried to rush up the right tape and ended up in a firefight. Too bad my friends weren't covering me as well as I thought. We all got shot out within a 5 seconds of each other. It never really bothered me. I was playin against a team with a shocker, electro spyder, and rt tippy... I think it was just because you were thinking about too much. lol...
