I'm 45 and reasonably fit but I only like nice things to happen to my body ! Does paintballing hurt as much as everyone says? I've heard that gloves and a 'cup' are good ideas but would really love to hear from you guys.

I'm going PAINTBALLING for the first time - any tips?

Don't go for headshots. LoL.
I hear (was involved in a convo about this the other day at lunch, never been myself) that it hurts as much as someone pinching you... But I'd wear a cup to be safe. Some places you don't want pinching.

I went paintballing about 10yrs ago and it is very painful! Lol...I had open wounds and bruises so big afterward. Id worn jeans and was fully covered up, but it sure made a mess of my body. Make sure you wear LOTS of padding!

It is painful if you get hit, try airsoft instead. Very similar to paintball but uses 6mm plastic BBs instead, just as much fun nowhere near as painful.

Dress like your mum made you before you could go out on a really cold winter day. Layers upon layers.
Of course that makes you a better target.... but it won't give you bruises all over.
Then again, you might be able to get Mrs. Nic' to kiss all your bruises better.
