its one damn expensive sport. I'd recommend gloves and long sleeves as you will get welts when you get hit.

My friend's church, believe it or not, took us a few times. The church rented the whole "upper" field for our convenience. It was so much fun shooting people I know personally...and didn't like....and I know all of them too...it wasn't one of those games where its all strangers. Definitely get semi automatic guns, those are fun :toocool: |

I've gone paintballing twice. and both times, i got shot nearly point blank into the forehead.

it hurt like a bitch; and i was bleeding pretty bad, but i still had a lot of fun. i would recommend wearing a stocking cap or something, in the event that the helmet does not cover your forehead [we had these facemasks that stopped just above the eyebrows].
if you get hit anywhere else, it doesn't really hurt. i mean, depending on how sensitive your skin is. i didn't have any welts anywhere else on my body. then again, i am pretty thick-skinned. :) |

Would love to try it one day. Would love to know what it feels like to be hard, ruthless and to be in man boots! :toothless

honestly, you'd probably have a greater risk of getting injured by your own clumsiness than from a paintball [i.e. running through woods and then tripping on a treeroot and falling on your face, and spraining your ankle at the same time] |
