how much paint do you use during speedball

[lemonhead]

how much paint do you use during one speed ball game for one person

[tsr]

usually 1000-2000. depends on how you use your marker and the type of marker you have.

[in trauma]

we play 200 ball limits
so about 100-150 each game

so about 800-1000 a day

Most of the time we play a 1 hopper limit---Fill as many balls as you can in the hopper and that's it. No tubes.

[AllOleander]

Hmm..i wanna try those rules..no tubes..might be interesting

i play front right and shoot about 600-800 paintballs a game. I've only gone over 800 once, and that was using all of my tubes :)

you would be amazed that the games still dont last that long

also once we played a 20 ball limit now that has hard!

[jaredu]

No tubes is a good challenge for any player.

[iipaintballer]

I play front so i dont use that much, usually just a hopper and a tube, so 400 rounds MAX.

But i also like limiting it to hopper ball.

[FireStorm727]

I use about 600-800 a game but it depends on alot like whether i play back or front or what gun i'm using and the such, but 1000-2000 a game isn't that much if u playin a tourney that much is easy to use if u're playing back

[Ded]

too much

[Thor the Mighty]

i use like 100, and that's because i don't like wasting paint, and i don't need to because i am a good shot

[FOXRCNG11]

but in speedball it doesnt matter if your a good shot or not, you just lace paint at the barrier and hope you hit them....Theres no time to aim

[Paintballer502]

a harder game is gettyseys burg you have to take off your hoper+elbow and can only use one shot so you have to put the paint in your barrel.after you shoot you can only put one in at a time.

[VeNoM]

ya i use about the same as ii, i go out with whats left in m hopper from previous game than reload once on the field. ya 1000 rds is about what i use on a slow day, i fthere is alot of people at the field i usually use a case.

[Codestar20]

I use about 300 to 400. My max has been 500.

[Creek]

we play 200 rounds per player in 10 min games.

[MasterofBush]

It all depends on your position. A good front man wouldnt use that much paint, rather he uses all his time looking for moves. A good backman lays bunches of paint down so the front man can move. (thats why they make those 9 pod packs that can carry a case and a half)

I myself am a front man. I carry a 3-Pod harness and hardly ever get to my third pod.
