Ok so I'm old

[flyboy]

Whoa dude you got full certifacation as allowance of using the term "I'm old!"

Well my hip was messed up in a car wreck when I was 25 and it finally just gave out. The rest happens when you allow yourself to get FAT. I've lost over 60 pounds since last Dec. In pretty good shape now.

I can't even tell I have a big ole piece of titanium in my rigth leg anymore.

57 and usually ahead of the 18 year olds. I play at fields all over the country and if they "pick" teams I'm usuallly the last one, at least till the first game is over. Experience can play a big part in paintball.

The thing about being older is that you're not scrounging for cash to play like you were when you were younger. Although my wife still doesn't understand why I just bought "that gun" (aka my automag).

The guy in the faded camos with he pump or classic mag is usually the one to worry about... because noone else considers them a threat they are able to slip in "under the radar" and cause more damage than the hoser sitting at the other end of the field making lots of ruckus and causing a scene.

Old age and treachery makes me smile.

My oldest son is finally able to play. Funny to watch him break down the side of the speedball field. The bunkers are all taller than he is. Short brick layed on its side covers up to his armpits. My youngest is ready but not old enough.

I'm 56. I play 5 to 7 scenario games a year. It takes me almost 2 days to get up to speed, that's why I prefer 2 day scenarios.

I'll be at The Alamo in Coperras Cove in February, T-Rev at Mt Pleasant in April, Paintball Sam's Big Game in Racine WI the first weekend of May, and at Mout on Memorial Day. I may do 8 games this year. I'm old, slow and can't see very well, but I do enjoy hanging back and watching others get into it!
