Any body on here ever done paintball? I was thinking about taking it up as a hobby. They have course over by Colfax or Baxter if I'm not mistaken. I think it looks fun, maybe a bit painful, but overall a good time. Thoughts, comments, concerns. Carry on.

I got to play twice back in college - some place outside of Dubuque. It was awesome. Tons of fun.

I got to lay twice back in college - some place outsid eof Dubuque. It was awesome. Tons of fun. Agreed, done it a few times and had a blast. It's pretty crazy hearing them whiz by your head. A good gun makes all the difference in the world the ones that they usually carry at the courses are crap.

I've played quite a few times...speedball and woodlands courses. Mostly informal games as my brother-in-law and his dad have 4-5 guns and tons of land. It is AWESOME....I highly recommend it.

I recommend it for everyone! Just make sure you wear a mask.

Yes, and make it a good mask.
I bought a gun in highschool but have played since. I really enjoyed it though. If your in the Des moines area and want someone to "tag" along I would love to get the pea-shooter oiled up and organize a game sometime.

I have played and it was a blast. The speed games and little obstacle courses I didn't really care for, but getting camoed up and killing people in the woods is awesome. It must be the Marine thing.
