But it hurts

Paintball is a sport you really need to spend alot of time doing in order to conquer a few natural phobias. When I first got into the game, Adrenaline was my worst friend. I loved it but I was afraid of so many aspects that it really froze my progression. You have to conquer your mind, and the way I chose to overcome this was not to give up and get shot ALOT! I have told people that I have been shot every where on my body at least twice... but after 20 years I would say I have been shot every where at least 3-6 times everywhere on my body. I have scars that I love and scars I hate, little circles on my forearms and scars on my knees and shins, even some on my neck and fingers. But, because of the way I chose to attack my behavior for every scar I have Ive left three times as many. For every time I have been shot I have shot other people 6 times more. When you learn not to flinch, and that its just a a little pain that you can chose to focus on you become a much more valuable player. Mind over matter my friends. Conquer your mind and you will conquer this sport.
