So I keep reading the crappolla that spews from the mouths of others. Things that do little to nothing to help the sport I love and endorse. So I have decided to fight this trend with my own positive outlook. Paintball is a sport that embraces all Man,Woman,child,Handicapped and those that wouldn't make it in other sports. It is fun and it brings people together which in this electronic age is saying something. I have been playing this sport for 22 yrs now.(Although I admit I didnt play much while I served in the army.) My first marker was a splatmaster pistol that served me well until I got a P68 SC stock class marker. I remember well the first semi I seen it was a VM 68 magnum and it was heavy! Back then about ten of us would go to the nearest woods in the Waha area in Idaho. A little area known as Soldiers meadows became our church. Every Sunday we could be found shooting the crap outta our closest friends. Paint cost was 70 dollars for five thousand rounds. We would keep it in the closet and flip the box every couple of days. I had played with some great guys who I know to this day.The bonds made in this sport are stronger than some realize is possible. I have taken upon myself to teach the young guns I meet the things some forget about or never use. I want all my kids to follow me into the great sport that is paintball.
Skip ahead about oh say 15 years to when I moved to the Midwest. I started playing outlaw ball unaware of the scenerio world here in the midwest. I was playing speedball with a cheap marker but I always had fun. I found out about a game here in the St. Louis area at a well known field near six flags. They had a Vietnam themed game I decided my stepson Jory and I would play. The game was a disaster a truly terrible event that had all the potential to be a truly great game. There was no Staff ran Chrono so some unhonorable players opted to shoot around 350 FPS and higher. There are so many things I could say that were wrong so i will tell you what went right. I somehow ended up in a command slot and found that I loved Scenerio paintball!
This began my affair with my mistress .....Scenerio Paintball
