    Worst places to get hit.

    I know everyone gets hit there sooner or later. People say getting hit in the groin is the worst. However I got shot in the neck. It stings like a mofo. I noticed it was green fill. Didnt think anything of it. So I play another round and get shot in the back of the head. Green fill again. Its just coincidence but 2 more rounds after that I was also shot in the head. I sat the last three games out for fear of a concussion from repeated blows to the head. Anyone care to share their worst paintball injuries?

    I got hit in the back (while reffing) from 5 feet away by some kid shooting a Tippy 98. I chrono'd the gun and found it was shooting 324.....

        My worst was during a game of rec play. I was in a wooden house type structure when an opposing player ran next to the building without me noticing and the kid who was supposed to cover me did'nt say a word or warning. This tool stuck his gun through the window, because he could see me, and blind shot. I felt the tip of his barrel rest up against my right temple a split second before he pulled the trigger twice. The next thing I knew I was on the ground and could'nt even focus my eyesight. I had been wearing a pair of Flex 7's with the soft foam earpieces and they did little to lessen the impact. I had a lump the sized of a canned ham on my temple and could'nt even put my mask back on after that game. I suffered from headaches for a good solid week and it took another week before I could even sleep on that side anymore.

        I questioned everyone but the coward never owned up to it. I don't go to that field anymore.

          cphilip knows the score...

          Followed by shots between fingers.

          to infer one's final destination."

            My second time playing i was at my local field and didnt think to wear gloves since it was 80 degrees outside. I got bunkered and shot twice in the back of my right hand from about 3 feet. This was over 2 years ago, and the scars are still visible.

              By far, the worst place I've ever been shot is in the small of the back, right at the base of the spine. There's a one inch square area right above the beltline that absolutely paralyzes you and drops you to your knees when you're hit there.

              Thankfully, modern waist hugging harnesses virtually eliminate this shot.

                Given the way the sport has been going lately ... I would say the worse place to be hit is the wallet

                  Yup, that's where I got hit.

                    took one to the collar bone yesterday, makes wearing a seatbelt damned near impossible now.

                    at least until the swelling goes down

                    I would have to say between the fingers is probably the WORST. I've been shot there twice, once I had gloves on and it didn't even help.

                              getting shot in the arse hurts so much right when it happens , but after it doesn't hurt.
