Paintball - Are You Into it Yet?



by Gary Garrett


Paintball is awesome. It is a great sport to play and I love to play it. Without a doubt it is my favorite extreme sport, and I always look forward to playing it every chance I get. Here I will tell you why I think paintball is awesome.

The thrill and excitement in this sport is unlike any other sport I have ever taken part in. It is suspenseful, exciting and exhilarating to play. From the beginning of the game to the end it is on the edge of your seat excitement filled with ducking, flanking, shooting, running, ambushing, and crawling.

You could play thousands of games but every game will be different from the next. Each game you play, something different will happen, so each game is as exciting as the first one. For a change you can play at a different field with a different layout and the game changes again.

There are tons of different playing styles and in each game you can play differently. Some people prefer to play like snipers and stay in the distance, hidden from site, and try to pick off unsuspecting players. Others prefer the direct approach and like to shoot their markers like there is no end to their paintballs. There is a playing style for everyone, and you can play the way that fits you.

Knights have their swords, NASCAR racers have their cars, and paintball players have their markers. In the same way that NASCAR racers customize and deck out their cars, paintballers customize their markers. Your marker is your best friend during each game, and you can turn your marker into one that suits you and your playing style. The options and possibilities are nearly endless. There are tons of accessories and add-ons that you can use to turn your marker into your dream.

I could give you more reasons why paintball rocks, but these are my top reasons. If you haven't played it, I recommend it as a very exciting and action packed sport. It isn't for everyone mind you, because getting shot by a paintball does sting, but for me and many others, the chance of pain is well worth it.
