By Ryan Gert

Paintball is a thrilling sport full of shooting, running, squatting, crawling, and more. It is an active sport that favors those who have fast reaction time, are quick, have good accuracy, and have good experience.

When picking for teams, the more experienced, better players are most likely to be picked before anyone else. When you are first starting paintball, you don't have any experience, but once you are past your first game, you will have one games experience under your belt. The really good people will have hundreds or even thousands of games under their belt and lots of paintball tips stored in their head.

There is one way, however to accelerate your skill level faster, and become a better paintball player without having as much game experience as other paintball players.

The next time you are playing paintball, find the best and most experienced paintball players that you will be playing with and model them. During the game, watch how they handle certain situations, watch how they play, and if you get eliminated by them, take note of how they did it.

Making mistakes and learning from them builds experience and makes you a better paintball player. To accelerate your learning time and become a better paintball player faster, let someone that is experienced be your paintball guide and learn from the mistakes that they have made.

If you get into a conversation with a good player you can tell them something like, "I had trouble in that last game, (insert what you think you did wrong or what happened here)." They most likely have been in similar situations and may give you a few paintball tactics to help you do better in the next game.

Take advantage of what they know and learn from them as you would a paintball guide. Learning from them will help you become a more skilled paintball player faster.
