    I dont exactly know how many balls my hopper holds, but in tournament-hopper ball(pan-am style) I shoot a full hopper in each game, and that is 3 games a day. In rec, maybe 1000 depending on how long we play, but its usually around 5-6 hours.

    I have shot a full case in a matter of 4 games, but thats a different story..lol

      I got to try out my Warp yesterday, went through around 700 in one round.
      I was a little excited.

      We usually play out in the bush at our makeshift speedball field, and there was around 14 of us, so there was alot of people to shoot at.
      All in all, i went through around 1400 balls. I took it easy after that one round.....

      On a normal day, i'll go through half a case in one day (about 4hours).

          anywhere from a case to two cases on a full day of rec.

          For tournaments, it depends... If we do'nt make it out of the prelims, then about a case. If we make it to semi finals, 2 cases; if make in finals, i'd say about 2-4 cases.

          As you can see i shoot alot of paint, and that's with a Cocker , now u know why i switched to a Cocker instead of keeping an RT or BM2k.

            In practice usually at least 1000, sometimes a case. Sometimes though only a few hundred. Depends what I am practicing and who I am against.

            In a tourny... no idea but a hella lot. I play back and shoot quick :) but the paint bill is split between the team... so none of us keep count of what we shoot.

            I have a redz 5.4 and load it all up. I often shoot 5-7 pods in a game and sometimes all 9...

              Usually 3/4 of a case at most. We'll see how that goes with my new Warp.

                    I try to limit myself to half a case per outing unless I have leftovers. That usually carries me about 2/3 day

                                well if i decide to pretend i dont have any bills coming up.... more then i want to think about =)

                                though i try to limit myself to a case a day... though this past sunday i went through 3/4 of a case in 2 hours (all indoor play) and then saw what i had left and played hopper ball and even came home with some paint still in my hopper...


                                now the weekend of may 12th... i'll be meeting up with the guyz from AO nightmare (and playing this time) at pnl (i just noticed... i'm addicted to indoor) i plan on bringing 2 if not 3 cases with me and maybe buy another one there.... but i do know what ever i bring i will shoot.... if only for the fact that i dont want to carry it back to my car
