Any tips for paintballing?

[kentikins]

Hey, me and some friends are going paintballing tomorrow.

Any good tips, dos and don'ts?

[Chuckun]

At long range, aim high.. The paint balls are heavy and the guns underpowered so aim slightly high at distance :-P And ALWAYS shoot the marshal in the face. They love that.

[SinfulRaevyn]

Aim the end with the hole, then pull the trigger

 

Also. Yes. Headshots are great. ;D

^{Don't get hit. And freeze your paintballs. Leaves a good welt. Hmm maybe I will go drunk paintballing for my 21st bday!}

Arc that shit, keep your head down, wear extra layers of clothing unless you're a masochist.

If you get a break in the barrel, tilt the gun upside down and dry-fire to clear the breakage.

[beedub]

Wear a cup.

[docwarren]

Bob, weave, fire, repeat.

dont wear anything 'cept panties to lighten ur load.

dont freeze your balls - wont burst

in fact pour water to make them burst and increase mass.

masks have no periphery so prone as much as you can

When you're being shot at, DO NOT TURN AROUND AND RUN.. You'll be shot in the ass... literally!

Uhh,paintball is the best hobby/game in the world(except the partys,and girls ),i love it.

 

I think,the best tip,what you should to do,is camping(with one beer ).

When being shot at, don't panic, hunker down and place your shots. turn your side to the attacker. Aim for hard targets. Belly shots probably won't break it they are bent over. Aim for the gun, helmet, harness. A little history.

I played competitively with Theo519 up until the mid 90s. My last marker was a VM68, fully modified. I still have it and it works perfectly.
