Paintballing?

Question

Who's done paintballing? I went a couple of weeks ago and found it great. Sure it's painful, but with the camo, mask and gun it's like being at war.

So guys, where was the most painful time you got hit?
I got shot just under the shoulderblade. I thought that was it until I got a burst of rapid fire to the throat.

Answer 1

IN THE BACK OF MY LEG, JUST BELOW MY BUTTOCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! HURT LIKE HELLO, BUT, I TOOK IT LIKE A MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

Firstoff, Paintball is nothing like war, that is an image that players of this sport want to erase

but anyway I have been hit just about everywhere, and I for one feel that it hurts less without a cup, Its all about the surface area lol, but yea Ive been hit in the forhead right above my mask, the neck, throat, groin, top of the head, stomach, fingers, back and anywhere else you could think of. It doesnt hjurt much afterwards, and most of the time the adrenaline pretty much cancels that out.

Answer 3

I can tell you paintballing is nothing like war.

Now, to answer your question: Paintballing is painful, but it's worth the pain. I used to go with several of my Air Force buddies. The first time I got hit was on my forehead. I was advancing so well and one of my buddies was out of ammo. I leaned forward to toss him a hopper and BAM, right on my forehead just above the goggles. It felt like a rock. Needless to say, from that point on, I kept my head out of the line of fire. I have hit people in the goggles. It's great to see the paint smeared on their face!

Answer 4

I've went but i had the whole gear well the basic gear so it wasn't painful and it was fun because i won but still i think your friends were trying to make you feel the pain because to hit those spots takes alot of concentration or you just left yourself open just be happy it wasn't with the new paintball guns

Answer 5

One time, one of my friends shot me an inch away from the foot because he asked me to hold his gun and he fired it as a joke. I limped for a little while. I think the back is the worst place to get hit. Paintball is fun.

Answer 6

I have played paintball, but every time we play woodsball. Its really not that painful it hurts for about 3 seconds then its gone. I have gotten hit everywhere on my body. And just so you know its nothing like being at war.

Answer 7

Haha, one time when i was playing woodsball with a few friends and 2 parents my friend and his dad were walking to there side and he didnt realize he had his safety off and shot his dad in the back point blank. His dad made him walk off 10 steps and shot him 5 times lol. he makes sure his safetys on now.

Answer 8

ive gone paintballing a few times. once i was playing capture the flag and we were about to win... when my teammate accidentally shot me point blank in the face even though i was wearing my mask it managed to get in. so i was out, then the last remaining person on the other team came and grabbed the flag and the person who shot me and one other person on my team were still left, but they were out of ammo! if i hadnt been hit, we probably wouldve won!

have a gr8 week! :)

Answer 9

I started playing before the paint was water soluble all we wore was old Army dust goggles. while on point i looked over my shoulder to yell contact and got shot in the inside right cheek and teeth it hurt like a mother. Ah memories lol
