I started playing paintball in Northern California accidentally, really, in the summer of 2006. My son had heard about paintball from a school friend and we were curious and thought we'd give it a try. When we showed up at the field and saw all the guys in camo gear and using customized markers we were pretty intimidated. The intimidation was complete when we heard the fully automatic markers going off all around us. There we stood with our cheesy rental gear, knowing that we were about to be owned by these guys. When we did ok and had a reasonable number of kills, we were hooked and went out and bought our Tippmann markers almost immediately. We've been playing and improving our skills ever since and have had a great time playing with OCMI. We both feel fortunate to have hooked up early on with such a great team of players and great bunch of people. We seem to learn something new every time we play just by being around this team.
