How To Walk a Paintball Layout

[@01surge24]

Absolutely take the time to walk every bunker on both sides of the field…you will pass the 50 during play at some point….snake and Dorito players walk the opposite sides…you will end up on the other side during play also…always walk it as a team…finally watch other teams play the field before you do at the tournament….bunkers being inches off make a big difference…no two layouts are the same….just my input…great vid …thanks

Yep! Thanks for the love!

Thanks for this one Greg. How valuable it will be to understand not only what I can shoot, but what can shoot me. Specially off break. My confidence off of break is so high, I don't even think about what could shoot me and from where. Normally when I walk a field, it's to get looks from my primaries and then my next moves. This will help me greatly. Thanks brother.

I love the double pointer finger guns up hand gestures people make when walking fields haha, looks so stupid. Glad you called that out.

[@RepentanceGarden]

Hey Greg, I remember hearing these from you when you were teaching me these great tips when I played with you on NLR. I love that you included how much you hate imaginary snap shooting and pushing up on the bunker!! You taught me that over 10 years ago 😆

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Haha! Well I’m glad you remember! I appreciate the love :)

I absolutely lift my hands like I’m shooting while I’m walking the field LOL totally understand why it’s a pet peeve I hate when I catch myself doing it 🤣

Getting back into PB after a decade and thinking of trying speedball. Instructional videos are great. Did have a question about aiming. Are you aiming at an angle trying to drop onto people off rip or just straight to them? Havnt ran a speedball field before so not sure how accurate one can be on the field.

[@alexh2224]

The nxl or regulation fields are set up so that the paintball travels the full distance, it takes around 2 seconds so you are going to have to lead if people are running.. but usually you're just ripping paint at the lane between two bunkers or at their landing zone of a bunker hoping they run into the paint Lane.

[@jwest3257]

@@alexh2224 I know I would have to lead, I may have worded that poorly. Are you shooting at a 180 degree plain (barrel lvl with the ground) or at like a 30 degree plain (slightly raised) to get across the field all the way.

[@alexh2224]

Definitely need to lob the shots.

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Yea you will need to angle the barrel so it lobs. As for the exact degree I am not sure but you will get the hang of it once you shoot some down field.

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Oh as for the lane you will be shooting where they will be going or in a gap they will run through.

[@ramonhernandezpochy4186]

You should do "How not to play like Mingo"

[@howtoplaypaintball]

😂 hey his snap shot is quick though and he can get the job done!

[@brendenreid8186]

Well, I'm not the only person who thinks that the imaginary gunfighting is pointless. Thought I was crazy for that.

[@howtoplaypaintball]

Well… you’re at least not crazy for that. I can’t speak to anything else haha
