Alot of friends and I have Paintball Guns, and we go over to each others houses and woods and have fights. We all bundle up in winter caots in the middle of the summer, so they only last about half an hour, because we overheat. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone at the roost has engaged in the exciting sport of paintball.

Every year, my friends and I would get together to go paintballing (on my best friend's birthday). Couldn't this year, since we were all busy with other things and well, the guy of whom we'd go celebrate his birthday by paintballing had a shoulder injury.

But damn, paintballing is fun. In my opinion, it's nothing like those games of where you'd sit home and press buttons to take guys out. In paintballing, certain things are just instinct of what you do. I've had great games of where I'd help my team come out victorious, but I've also had horrible games of where I'd get shot in the very beginning because of a stupid mistake. Glad paintballs aren't bullets... ;)

I highly suggest people who haven't went paintballing to give it a shot (no pun intended...). Do it with friends and you'll have good laughs, stories to tell one another over and over again.

Oh man, paintballing is my second favorite thing to do besides love kaiju!
In fact, me and my friends have been playing alot lately in my woods. It is a great sport; I have a Spyder Victor 1 with a 14" barrel- it is an awesome gun!

Me and my friends usually play paintball in the woods for hours (like the last few days) and don't get too hot because we just wear a mask, long pants, and a short-sleeved T-shirt. We are not the kind of people that are afraid of getting welts all over and feeling incredible pain when we get shot. And man is it fun sneaking up on people and shooting them!

I know a bunch of people, a few of which are friends, who go to this huge field with a deserted 2 story house to play Paintball, Counter-Strike style. It sounds like a lot of fun, but I don't have a paintball gun or anything to play. Kind of reminds me of when a couple friends and I would play Laser Tag together...

My friends and I have paintball fights during the winter so we can where are coats to protect us. I dont know how you could wear a heavy coat like that in the summer time.

You don't have to. Just wear some long pants and a long sleeved shirt and you'll be fine. Another thing I do to keep cool while playing paintball in the summer is simply soak my clothing with water- then play!

Or you could just wear an extra large shirt so that its baggy, this helps deflect alot of the impact usually. But paintballs don't hurt all that much and the welts you sometimes get go away fairly quick.

Paintball is the best thing in the whole wide world. It's fun, it's exciting and provides me with my much needed dose of adrenalin. I try to paintball with my friends as much as possible, incurring a few injuries [ even one to the eye ], but that's part of what makes it so damn fun. Our usual stomping grounds is my friend's house or in the wodds, which is definitely a lot more fun. It's definitel one of my favorite pasttimes. :thumbs-up:



Peace,

There is already a topic for this.

But anyways, yup, I do play paintball with my friends weekly. We set up a huge arena with bunkers up in the trees and other cool stuff. I have a Kingman Spyder Victor 1 with a 14" barrel. Yeah, I know, not that great of a gun but I can kickass with it.

I don't need a $200 + gun just to be a good paintball player.

Use to play a lot of paintball when I had money and time. Still have my guns though which include Tippmann Procarb, Tippmann A-5, and Matrix LED from when the matrix was owned by diablo
