Ok, I was at addicts again, yesterday and today, but today I was told to shoot from different sides from the bunker, left side, right and the top...ok now, I don't see how you can shoot from the top, cause your hopper will be the first thing they see so.......am I missing something? cause I don't know how to shoot over the top of the bunker.
Also what the hell is the trick to snaping shooting?



P.S. I'm ignoring slipknot's posts and things so please let's talk paintball. No insults please...thanks.

Tilt your gun on its side so your hopper doesnt pop up first...or you could just pop up all the way so you can shoot. The trick to snap shooting is practise.

snap shooting, make it quick, have a general idaee of where your target is befor you go out. Associate bunkers and opponents with visible items in view, so you can have a lined up shot....


Practice practice practice,,

go out back (if legal and neighbors dont care) and practice snap shootin from behind a board to another board or something, and then rememebr to clean up your mess.

i did see one guy go over the top pretty well. he put his gun on its side, eye level, and i think he just used the halo to force a couple of balls in so he could take a quick snap shot... worked pretty well

Gold, I was the one telling you how to play. If you have questions. ASK! We wont give you rabies. Or call your parents and tell them you have been bad. All of the ref's are players. Most are on Addicts Factory at some level. NOONE out there hasnot been where you have been. So ask. You were there when we were all joking. Just join in.

if you have the money...or borrow a copy of the Dynasty video. Its a great tutorial for new tourney players needed to know the basics.

Search the internet for "how to play tournament paintball"...find some good reading material

Again these are just supplemental avenues for you...however, nothing well ever take the place of field time.

Great football and basketball players always wants minutes and/or reps on the field practice or real field time situations...no different for us ballers...so get out and play as much as you can...be that its addicts or anywhere else (including home).

Good to hear...your playin'...now you'll really enjoy what pballin' is about.

out.
