Midlands Masters Who Got Hoppers Broken by Paint

[sumo89]

i played for destiny fusion, i think it was you we played against on the field with the two snakes in the middle and i ranto the semi circle at the 50 to your right of it from the break but got shot out while diving for it, and iv still got a lump from the shot in my chest.
it was easily the most painfull shot of the day for me.

then again it could not have been you so i dont wanna go pointing fingers

i think you lot should all use draxxus frostbite in the colder weather and draxxus blaze in the warmer its really good plus it doesnt bounce very often!!

to be honest guys a lot of paint being used on sunday was way too hard, i cant remember team names as i saw nay on all of you pass through my field but i must of had at least 10 bounces off my lenses - too hard, way too hard.

i also got shot on my knee pad on my jt's and have got a major bruise through it, i asked my chrono ref to check the gun at the end, he had already checked it.

My advice is check your paint before you use it as no offence but a lotof stuff shot was crap and when i used to play i liked my paint to break on someone not bounce.

i didnt notice any breaks on my hopper until it fell apart when playing against destiny, its a halo hopper battery door is smashed and theres a big crack underneath it... like i said dont know when it happened or by who. all i do know is i got shot from both sides of me whilst i was trying to fix it

i did feel the paint we were using was rather hard but it was breaking on people so i dunno - what div were you playing?

Any Koth teams have any problems agains our kids team

It seems as if the paint we were using was not the hard as nails stuff causing complaints.

Have any koth teams who played our kids team got any complaints re black shelled paint they were shooting as they were made to stop using it during the day.

I have been involved in tournament paintball for over 15 years and always try to ensure we shoot a quality ball fit for the purpose.

If i supply my teams with a hard ball they aint going to win as too many bouncers if too fragile cant get it out of the gun so wanting my teams to do well i always check the paint to suit the weather.

I have run a rec ball site for 17 years and dont want my customers having any of the above mentioned problems either or getting hurt obviously so quality paint is always a top priority.

Anyone who knows me in the industry will tell you i will not buy cheap poor quality crap its a false economy.

We played in the koth ... and one of our guys ended up with his battery cover on his halo snapped in two, now if this was due to a paint hit or not im not sure but he was checking his gun after a game and found it broken so had to gaffer tape it up for the rest of the day.
