I used to keep it my my gun, then I noticed how obvious and stupid it was.... now I either pocket it, or loop it around my belt.

I used to shove it in my pocket, but it got difficult with gloves on so I just let it dangle off my feedneck. Playing speedball, it doesn't matter, and in woodsball, I just don't care enough. I'm the ultimate recballer!

/\  /\ Thorns /\ /\

Half my local field is gorse bush. Some crazy scotsmen brought it over with them late 1800's, and it loved the environment and is everywhere. Imagine something as dense as a hedge, but with thorns all over it

You have to get close and crouch or support yourself with your hand. Gloves make good sense, depending on the field.

Heres a pic imagine that, but lots and lots and lots of it. Sometimes up to a bus size if it gets mental.

Oh and its horrific when it dries out.

But there is one sweet advantage though... Nobody and I mean nobody expects you to be right in the middle of one the size of a car.
Ive got a sweet hiding place in one of them thats excellent place to be; Ive bashed out a nice place in the middle with no gorse, and theres a relatively easy way in. Plus its nice and quiet if you wanna have a sit down, relax a little and take pot shots at the guys up the rise because they cant see you.
Also people get a huge fright when the big ole gorse bush tells them to surrender and theres a barrel poking them in the leg

Ever been shot in the meat of the back of the hand? I have been multiple times, and it hurts. I always wear gloves!

It's an option when you make a poll; do you want people to vote more than once?

well, it depends on the type of gun...since my 98 has a cyclone, and i pull the barrel sleeve on the barrel, and then stretch it around the hopper, the easiest way for me to shoot is simply pull it off the barrel and let it hang there.
