Why I Think Paintball Is The Greatest Sport

By Gary Garrett

In my opinion, there isn't anything more exciting than playing a rousing game of paintball. It is fun, fast paced and super fun (I know I said that already). In this article I'll give you some reasons why paintball is a great sport.

Many of us grew up playing tag, or dodgeball. You could say that paintball is like these, but a lot more extreme. You are trying to mark your opponents by shooting them with a paintball. It is a simple concept but it is oh so much fun.

During a game of paintball your blood will be pumping, your heart will be racing, and you may even work up a sweat. It's intense to have paintballs flying by your ears and to return fire with your own stream of paint.

I've seen it many times before, a complete beginner to paintball eliminating a player with years of experience. It doesn't matter how long you have played, you can always get eliminated by people that appear to have no athletic ability or are complete beginners. This sport is very beginner friendly as at most paintball fields you will find games containing players with all levels of experience.

One of the best parts of this extreme sport is that there are hundreds of different paintball markers that you can pick from. Want one that pumps? Or maybe you want an electronic one that can unleash a hail storm of paint. Whatever you want, you can find or customize your gear exactly the way you want.

The customization part of paintball lets you express yourself in the sport. Just as a hot rodder makes the cars of their dreams, a paintballer can customize their gun exactly how they want it. The sport is lots of fun to play, that people of all ages can play.

If you are craving some more excitement in your life, and want to pick up a hobby or sport to do in your free time, I recommend you try paintball.
