Well, I'm starting to get that itch to play paintball again... and it left me wondering if there were other brothers on here that played or play the great sport.
I haven't played since the spring of 2010 in a local 3 man tournament. I just stumbled on the pictures from it.






Obviously the speedball / tourney scene was my area. But I also hopped into the woods from time to time. I'm still awfully tempted to do one of the big Milsim games.

Sold my GEO2 not too long ago. Dont think I even put a case through it....

Been a while since I played. Thought I could keep it up after having Kid #1, but regretfully I was WRONG.

Miss it. Been playing for nearly the last 20 years. Im always gonna have an itch for it.

Never been a huge fan of woodball. Speedball is where its at IMO. Unless youve been rushed...

Have fun brotha!

I use to be all about the woodsball years ago. Use to be so much fun. But then money turned into an issue and I had to choose between hockey and 'ball. Picked hockey haha

Dude.... I haven't played since January 2005. Wayyyy too long.
I just spent the past couple of hours going through non-ST parts of PBN. Holy cow, I've missed A LOT.

Though it makes me want to do something really stupid, like put together a rag-tag crew and play one event. That was always my goal, just to play one national event... We'll see.

I actually found this forum from the PBN cigar thread. I haven't played since 2008 and still have my stuff. I have had the itch to play ridiculously bad lately, rehydroing my tanks is the only thing in my way.

Haha same. Just need to get my tank hydro tested and I'm ready to ball. I should probably rip my EGO apart and make sure it's still in working condition though. I kinda imagine the o-rings dry up after not being used for so long.

I haven't played since 2005 as well. My gear sits in my shed and every year I think of selling it. Every year I decide to hold onto it. Not sure. Really only the marker is worth anything, but might let it go this year.

For you MN guys, I may buy a membership to Air Assault Paintball this upcoming fall. Looks very nice, and I always like bringing friends :thumbsup:

i haven't played in a while but have been looking into getting an entry level speedball marker like the Etha or Reflex cause i doubt my old trusty tippmann 98 RT will keep up with anything out there and the last time i played indoor with it the feeder was forcing paint through the little detent it has.
