Well yeehaw!! that sounds like fun, I always love uneven odds like that, of course we alway play in MY woods, so they have yet to ever sucessfuly ambush me, and they' ve tried. the usual game is one of my friends (who lives close by and also knows the woods well) and I against everyone else. we' ve only lost once that I can remember. so thats always what everone wants to do is try and take us two on...I just love seing the shock on peoples faces when I shoot them or make them surrender and they had no idea I was there...only feet away. I' ve never really been shot badly though, I usually only get limb hits if I get shot at all. I' ve never really been hit square on in any vital area before. excpet for a few face mask hits, I do have a couple paintball related scars though. from crawling through patches of thorn bushes,running into barbed wire, that sorta thing...but I' ve never had a painball break the skin before...!! something you might want to try though, one of our favorite games when we get bored with the usual, is shoot out tournaments. you start out back to back and take a certain number of paces (the number depends on exactly how brave you and your opponent are..) counting outloud, and then turn and fire, you cannot move your feet once you' ve turned, and you only get three shots. it can be pretty fun...

Paintball.. I play speedball and sometimes Ref the hyperball/speedball/airball courses. I shoot an Impulse right now, Worst shot i've ever had happen to me, This 9 year old kid was shooting hot (650 fps) and lit up my entire left arm when i came to bunker his buddies. Anyway, black, blue, swollen, skin torn.
Needless to say i stopped the game and got everyone to chrony.
Huntinggirl, people get seriously seriously hurt when the velocities exceed 300 (tourney limit) the mask lens can break (only gaurenteed to 300) people can die like mentioned above.
