    do you shoot of the break?

    i was jest watching my team video of the last tournement we were in to see what the team needs to practice on for our upcomeing tournement thats next sunday.

    well i noticed that i run slow off the break and im going to start practicing that but i also notice that i shoot while running right when the game starts and i was woundering if shooting and running is slowing me down. i was thinking in jest rushing to the bunker and than start shooting.

    i was woundering what AO dose off the break and what some good stratigies to get the the bunker fast while shooting at the same time.

    thanks

      Why wouldn't you?
      Get those markers up and rolling.
      Learn to run and shoot, it'lll come in handy.
      The 'easiest' time to nab someone is off the break.

          I play Back Right Tape.

          Depending on where I think people are going. I'll either take a step over, lane my spot, then run to my bunker

          OR

          Run to my bunker and lane the whole way.

            It also helps the walk the fields as much as possible beforehand.
            If you get a chance to see how an opposing team plays before you're setup to play them, by all means watch them as much as ossible as well.

            There's a SoCal team down here, who off every break sends two runners up to the right, and thre up the center.

            After a while we figured out what they were doing, and nearly maxed them every game.

              I give my backman the job of taking down there front players, I will sometimes pause and "lane" but really try to just knock down there lanes. That gives me a chance to make my bunker without running through a lane.

                it's all about walking the fields, finding those lanes to the "obvious" 1st bunkers.. I usually try to dump my whole hopper where I feel one of the front people are going, since I know I probably wont have a chance to lane someone in back.

                    The shooting and running isn't what's slowing you down, unless you just suck at it.

                    Everyone should be able to run and gun.

                        most of the team are back mid players. i try to get to the center as much as posible. (we are all preaty big guys) soo im thinking in going to my feild to walk it and practice running to bunkers.

                        dj89 and monstermag are jest born back players cuse that shoot alot soo mabey they can lane the places i need for me to be able to run up.

                        im dont shoot alot. soo im prone to be a mid frount.

                        i shoot only when theres a player that i can shoot at. i cant stand wasting and laneing paint.

                        all of your answers are helping me alot thanks

                          I dont shoot off the break because most of the time they will either bounce, or the person will just slide into their bunker wiping off the hit as if they never got hit. And from that distance its hard to tell whether it broke or not while actually running. I am a front guy. What I do on the break is, and this depends on who Im playing too. I delay my run. I stay back toward the deadbox and sweetspot a couple ppl. As soon as they are almost to their bunker, I sprint to mine. This way, most ppl are already in their bunker, and not ready to shoot, and the backmen have already sweetspotted and gotten to their bunkers. I try to get to the 50 as much as possible.

                          Try it sometime. You may like it. Plus, by the time you get to your bunker, you already know where the opponents are and you can start snap shooting immediately. Works for me and a lot of other ppl I know.

                            I hardly ever need to shoot off the break. I almost always play front, so I'm usually focused on getting as far up the field as possible. Sometimes I'll shoot before I arrive at my destination as new angles to the opposing players open.

                              OHHHHH. I forgot you were on that team with the crazy name.


                              So beause you dont shoot alot, that makes you a front player? How do you figure?
