How many if you shot more then 300 paintballs your first time playing?

jake55 · #1 10-24-2009, 08:02 AM

Just a random question, I'm trying to see how many players shot MORE then 300 paintballs there FIRST time playing.

I my self stayed shooting quiet a low amount my first 5-6 times (less then 500 for sure).

Just curious as to if others followed my same path.

My first time was with a Spyder Victor (RENTED). That thing sucked. And I sucked at shooting so out of the entire day I maybe went threw 200.

I went through maybe a case my first day playing with an Ion pro. Man I miss those days.

I need to start playing again.

You're _VERY_ first day EVER playing paintball you had an ion pro?

So you mean to tell me you went out and bought an ion pro before ever even playing paintball just hoping you would like it?

A lot of people buy guns before they play. I know a guy who baught an 08 ego his first time out just because he had the money.

On topic: I shot probably around 1000

I don't even think I knew about a ego first time I played

EDIT:

You should also post if it was indoors or out doors.

Ugh yea I do alot of research before I do something. I didn't go to walmart and buy a bad gun to play with my first time. I had a brass eagle prior to my Ion but I just shot it around the yard.

What did you do run around with a slingshot the first time you played?

really though did you not get a gun before you played?

^^^ You do alot of research but you didnt even try the sport first? Seems like the most obvious way to do research...
Just saying

Anyway, i had a spyder imagine with an e-trigger, i thought it was fricking amazing so i shot at pretty much anything. Maybe got one elimination all day out of 1200-1500 rounds... But who cares, i was hitting like 6 bps...

kylelee · #11 10-24-2009, 03:23 PM

I was referring to I do alot of research BEFORE I do something. I wanted to be prepared the most I could before I stepped on a field.

Egos weren't even invented when i started lol

nme2110the2nd · #15 10-24-2009, 05:21 PM

when i started playing a bag of 500 would last us(4-5 people) all day.

iTz Nicholas72 · #16 10-24-2009, 07:58 PM

The first time I played was with my brothers Ion that he gave to me and I shot around 600 shots. My friend wanted to do a big airsoft vs. paintball battle and I don't like airsoft so I gave paintball a shot and loved it so much. Now I'm in the process of getting some upgrades and a job so I can really start to enjoy paintball.

My first day ever, and I mean EVER I had Pants, Jersey, gloves, cleats, Elbow/Knee pads, Sandana, flex mask, Bob Long Vice, Halo B Reloader and a Crossfire Tank. All bought a week before yes I did hope I liked the sport, I didn't like it.

I FREAKING LOVED IT. (whole package of gear cost a tad over 1,000) and before anyone says it, no my "mammy" didn't buy my gear. The Department of Education's money did

I doubt I shot 50 rounds the first time I played, back in 1991. The second time, however, I was more on-the-trigger, and went through every one of the 500 balls I'd brought.

Fearless_Leader · #19 10-26-2009, 01:09 AM

~200 indoor back in 02 with a tippman 98 rental

Bob Bobbity · #20 10-26-2009, 12:59 PM

Eh, I probably rocked out ~200 ish...I remember like, we had 7 people and split a case and it lasted us all like 8 hours haha. Now that Im playing pump ~250 for a day of play. With my semi guns I shoot a ~2000-6000 in a day of play.

jtguy2269 · #21 10-26-2009, 04:11 PM

first time i played i went out with 3friends, we each had a bag of 500, and couldn't get enough of it so we bought another case. outdoor woods/hyperball fields
