My Dad’s family has been challenged by his brother’s family to a paintball tournament. My Uncle went into the Navy when he got out of school and my Dad went into the Air Force, so there has always been a hard core competition between them. But in a good way.
Of course they have both been retired for several years, so I’m not sure where the idea of paintball came from, but I’m down. I’ve played a half dozen paintball games back in Virginia when some of the guys from work wanted to go to the local field for a day. The company paid for the games as a team building exercise, and we had a blast chasing each other through the woods and fields, shooting anything that moved.
So we have to accept the challenge and make plans to play over the Fourth of July weekend. we’re going to have to get the family together before that for at least one practice. I still have my paintball gun from back in the day, but I hear there’s a lot of new technology used in the new guns. Checked out the www.pntball.com website for Ultimate Paintball and decided to go ahead and get a new gun and some gear.
Found a new sniper gun by spyder on the Ultimate Paintball site and some spyder paintball markers to order for me. I’ve always been best in a sharpshooter or sniper role. Tomorrow I’ll call my dad and see if he wants to get in on the order and get some gear for himself and start planning our tactics.
If we’re going in on this challenge, we’re going to be playing to win.
