Paintballing

[Zachow 1st MRB]

How many of you out there go paintballing or own your own paintball gun. I know I do and for my birthday I'll be getting a x7, I'll post pics when it arrives. If you do where do you play and what style or games?

[Worsham]

I play at fort paintball, xadrinalen, and gatsplat near north dallas, in texas.

I have a cheap ass spyder Xtra (gets the job done).

I like to play speed ball, and woodsball.

[McKenzie 1st MRB]

I play Speed and Woodsball

Speed= Inflatable bunkers, much faster paced, usually electronic guns

Woods= Self Explanatory

I own an EGO 07, a Proto SLG and a tricked out to look like an AK Tippy X7.

I used to play for a sponsored team by an out doors store near my house named Sherpers. Won a few tourneys. I know a fair deal about paintballing, so if you got any questions, hit me up

[Zahl 1st MRB]

speedball here! got EGO 9 gonna buy EGO 10.. and most likely heading for spain to play millenium

[McKenzie 1st MRB]

Zahl I hope you know I am sending virtual jealousy to you over the interwebz. Lucky bastard.

[Zachow 1st MRB]

Yeah I'm getting the x7/36. You know you love paintballing when you nearly shatter your left foot in the woods length wise, finish out the game, play another one. Even after my foot got so big I couldn't fit into the shoe or walk I had my friends carry me into the firing range and finish off my hopper. Or in speedball I took down a ply wood house slipping into it.

[McKenzie 1st MRB]

Yeah. I played a Scenario Game in Illinois once, damn near killed myself when I was running, slipped down this big ass hill. Came out it unschathed but it was like one of those comedies where you just see the guy falling over and over haha.

[Zachow 1st MRB]

Yeah at promised land there is this like 30 foot hill/ cliff that they use for a base and the first time I was there I took a path that ends in a 30 foot like 80 degree angle and I ran down it and I have no clue how I managed to stay on my feet.

[Scholma 6th RB]

I go a tippman a-5 with a modified 22 inch m-16 barrel and sliding butt stock. every year i got to whats called the hells survivors monster game

what it is is you have points to capture on a 180+ acre piece of land set up for it map here http://hellsurvivors.com/index_page/fieldmap.php

and you have around 3000 total people playing on 2 different teams now that is a blast.

[Worsham]

haha i seriously LOL'ed

[McKenzie 1st MRB]

Haha it was like that scene out of Hot Rod, except less dramatic haha.

[K. Swartz 1st MRB]

Yea me and mike play woods with friends all the time. both got the MR1 spider.

[Zachow 1st MRB]

This I would love to see Kevin's big ass paintballing in the woods. Bet you are easy to find you're a little to big to be stealthy.

[Jasko]

there was this paintballing place under a highways and in the woods, called "Death Valley". All you had to do was find it. It was in the woods and there was a creek running through it with junked cars littering the area.

And red... Don't forget red.

[Zachow 1st MRB]

What or who is red.

[Zachow 1st MRB]

is a pretty cool video of a big game.

[Zachow 1st MRB]

That shows one of the main reasons I don't like speedball as much because most of the time it's just who can sling the most paint the fastest. If you are watching they just point and don't ever let up on the trigger. In woodsball that style would just get you pegged hard and fast because with the dense woods you wouldn't hit jack shit.

[Pina]

Ya but speed ball is way faster. Woodsball is slow and i can't do that lol, plus speed ball is more intense =)

[Zachow 1st MRB]

Yes it is slower and speed ball is not more intense you know what to expect every time but in woodsball you may not know where you are getting hit from or where the enemy even starts from. Plus there are a lot more scenarios that you can play.

Plus woods are better than inside a 20x40ft box.

[Zachow 1st MRB]

I said I would post up pics when I got my new gear so here it is.

It's a Tippmann x7 with 14" pathfinder barrel, and X36 mods.

Sidearm is a Tippmann TPX

[Zachow 1st MRB]

Hey gents just letting you all know that in 2 weeks we should have some footage of our Military day with most of the Winsconsin members. Also of McKenzie charging the enemy while wearing a kilt. And for those of you trying to get into the game like I've heard Goodwin ask here is a good forum that will help you figure out things and what's cheap and works.

[Cayen]

lol ive played paintball once and it was speed ball yet i didnt like it probably cuz i had to rent a tippman 98 (wich is completely innacurate as stock version) and the other team had autos yet i won the juggernaut game against three autos thanks to my friends dying in the process
