Hi, I hope this is the right place to post this..

Has anyone ever been to paintball?

Share your experiences!!

Does it hurt? What if you cant aim? LOL idk..

I really really really want to organise a day for my birthday at paintball but.. still a little scared LOL


edit//
since they give you overalls to wear ontop of your clothes,
is it better to wear heaps of clothing? like long sleeves and pants?
or should you wear shorts and a tshirt? lol

yep
it's very fun
but too much gear for first timers imo
i couldn't even walk correctly

and it does hurt very much
and don't worry so much about aiming because the guns are auto
you just hold onto the trigger and it keeps shooting
it helps if you're screaming and running towards them
just spray it like a water gun

Paint ball is FUN!... don't wear good shoes tho. they will so get messed up.
><; yes it hurts if you dont have your guard and armor on.
the armor makes it hard to run tho..
Last time i played was during summertime.
went because i was bored. If you can't aim don't play.
TT____TT i had a ginormous bruise cuhs i wasn't gaurded right.
it's fun but painful! If your tough go for it..
but i swear, you will hurt alot.

HELLS YEA** I'mma paintball lover here

I call it "Painfully Fun"

I loved it, if you go or play.. you have to go with ALOT of ppl ,for it to be fun , well for me that is

but always wear protected gear(like the helmet thing and the chest protect-tor thingie) ALWAYS.its safety.

^ altho I only wore the helmet thing ,with baggy pants and a t-shirt eh?

Don't wear new shoes or they we get dirty......

when you're in the battle field thinggie, shoot like crazy(but try to aim) , and when you run ...run zig zaggy , don't run straight because thats a good way to get shot smile.gif

I got like 7 bruises from it heh...but its fun !!

ahh and the paintball is faster than you think .....so you should do a couple of practice shots

hehe I hope this helps <3333

HAVE FUN!!! && HAPPY BIRTHDAY <333

my brother went paintballing recently and he got hit pretty bad and was pretty sore all over
xljh=)
When I started playing.. I couldn't AIM at all. lmfao! So many bruises, mang.
It hurt just to walk. xD! But than I got better. :D! And less bruises! YEAH. Ahaha.

I went twice, indoor and outdoor. All I can say, outdoor is more worth your money (in my opinion) because the indoor one is just 1 venue, while the outdoor one you had multiple courses to use.

Aiming doesn't matter, just shoot till you hit someone or till they duck away behind their barrels.

Yes it is immensely painful, but it is worth the pain. Aim for any bit of the body that sticks out in the open hahahaha.

It is definitely fun, I went with a few friends, we're all wimpy girls and we all had fun in the outdoor one (we didn't quite enjoy the indoor one as much). We didn't use much paintballs cause well we just hid most of the times and played sniper hahaha. The amount of paintball usage varies with each person, you can always buy extra if you run out midway through the game.

We were all buggered after 4 hours of paintball, but then we're not all entirely fit tongue.gif

i went and played paintball ONCE.

why once?

because our paintball field is in a forest.
within that forest there's a swamp where you lose your shoe and slide in the mud
where you also vers military trainees and Swat team members in practices.

i ended up getting shot in the cheeks
so never again... LOL

YES, paintball does hurt. Wear lots of clothes or you will have tons of bruises the next day. The more expensive your gun is, the better your aim will be. I rented my gun and that thing can't even shoot anything straight.

I am extremely scared of this sport. ph34r.gif I heard it does hurt.

I play paintball at a semiprofessional level, I play in leagues when I'm not in school, (summer, winter). And I play recreational paintball whenever there's a holiday or something.

Worst place I got hit was the neck, I turned around to call for people to move up, and it left an opening between my shirt and mask, and WHACK...ow. It was the soft spot where the jaw meets the soft spot of your neck? All in all, it's a fun experience every time. And to answer your question, it's quite easy to aim; just see if your balls are hitting your desired target, and then adjust if they aren't.

Wrong. The barrel plays a big part of the accuracy. The gun itself is just there to propel the paintballs out of the gun.

i've played.. really fun but i really suck and its painful lol

i only went once around LA, i dont think theres any near Seattle.

It was fun, but painful. The place we went to it was outdoor, cost about 45 dollars, but they only give you a gun and a helmet. all 10 of us just wore old old clothings. i didnt really get hurt because i was a friddy-cat and stay behind the barrier most of the time......but i did shoot someone on the forehead >.<. my boyfriend and other boys decide to go to open one where anyone could go in and a side, boy did they injured....some of the other players brought their own super powerful guns and corner them and shot them like ay bank point. he ended up a bleeding wrist and a palm size bruise on his side, ouch.

Paintballing is the FUNNEST thing ever.
I only went once, but I had sooooo much fun!
If it's your first time going, its scary cause you don't know how it feels to get shot XD . Well for me at least.
Getting shot hurts, especially on the head and thigh. Getting shot on the thigh really stings ><" .
Overall, I got like 4 bruises XD
When I went, we only had face masks and our heads were not covered.
We rented jackets and a chest protector for $10 and it was $35 dollars with the balls and extra 100 balls cost like $7.
Wear old clothing that you won't mind getting dirty, cause I forgot to and yeahh.. XD

Never tried it before but I really really want to.
Sounds like loads of fun & I'm always full of energy D:

Paintballing is sexyyyy
I started with an ion and moved up to a DM6.

But I've slowed down on playing due to college and how expensive the sport is. I remember one of the first games I played, I was tagged out. So i raised my hand to signal myself out, but I was shot in the hand. I swear I thought my hand fell off. it was that painful! lol

Though now im a bit more skillful =)

Paint balling is fun I have only played once in the woods though, which was with 7 friends against the opposing team which had 12, we beat them even when out numbered 8 to 12.

The other team kept losing their flag even when they had like 6 guys in defense against our 6 forward leaving me with another guy at our own flag. Their team had 3 black guys(not to be racist or anything) in their 6 man assault that couldn't shoot accurately as they held it like a pistol without using the sights and kept going brup, brup, brup! every time they shot. The black guys gave away their positions so many times that their own team mates started shotting them from the back themselves. All me and my mate could hear was "hello kittys, please!", "Imma, cap your ass fool", "Hey bruv, could ya stop capping my head ya motherjohn tesher!" then they started shooting each other. Their team was in chaos and we took the flag 3 times. There was times when I went behind their main assault group and cap one of black guy on the back of the head and they started friendly fire thinking they got shot by their team mates again. I felt sorry for them especially the guy I shot in the back of the head but it was funny how shot his team mate straight away.

hello kittys= the N word
Motherjohn tesher= mother F**ker

8 guys using army tactic > 12 idiots that shot each other and tried to copy our arrowhead tactic but ended out getting flanked
