Bad picture of me after a long day of backyard paintball.

Wow looks like you never got hit . I've always wanted to try paint ball. I've got a friend who is really big into it, but I don't think he's very interested in training a paint ball noob.

I try to take along atleast one person who is new to it each time i go. Everybody knows SOMEBODY who has never played before, and everybody who tries it for the first time has a blast. yes that day i did very well, I've been playing since '98 so i know when to keep my head down. I'm sure somewhere in MI there is a place you can go rent equipment and play for a few hours.

i heard it hurt like hell to get shot

I think 90% of it is exaggeration, the other 10% is when people have their gun chronographed too high..then it can hurt. Only time I ever feel it is if its from really close - we have a 50 ft rule. its like being hit by a tennis ball.

ouchie doesnt it hurt when ur hit on the arm?

The only time that i can honestly say I've been hurt from a hit was when i was shot in the finger. Other than that, it never hurts. People just over exaggerate how bad it is.
