I love hearing these stories of introducing our kids to the sport. My sons mom is pretty against gunplay, and we respect one another's parental boundaries when they're serious... so he won't see a field for a while (he's 9 now, but I think he could hang)

If we teach then the respect and teamwork that pump play takes, it might even turn into a life-lesson! My goodness! Paintball teaching our children to be better people?!?! What next???

I don't understand how hitting someone with one of 300 balls, fired at 30BPS is skill.... yet a single ball to the face from a PGP is a "lucky" shot....

What? A sport involving GUNS teaching respect, honesty, saftey, and integrety? Get outta here?

Seriously, it's great to hear stories like this. I've recently talked my wife into playing, and now she SCARES me. Keeps threatening to play on the other teams and kick my butt!

help?
