So yeah, we say we pump before we shoot (pump players), which is true (since the gun will not shoot till it pumped afterall). But I have noticed a trend among new (very new) pump players, to pump before EACH and EVERY shot... Usually wasting any chance of a snap shot, or of hitting anyone even vaguely paying attention really. Instead of pumping after each shot, to make the gun ready for the next, while you have time.
Nobody ever told me when I started playing pump, that after that first pump, I should pump RIGHT after each shot... so the next shot is free of wasted time & motion. I guess it came naturally, and obviously for some it doesnt. The only time this is irrelivant, is if you are using an autotrigger & shooting fast, then it doesnt matter weather its after or before the shot you are pumping (and imposible to tell really).
Anyway, if you are just starting out playing pump, pump once before the game starts, then immediately after each subsequent shot, Simple.

Or just use an electro, then you can just pull the trigger... and it shoots! ...like every time.
ReplyDeleteOr, we can continue to play a style of play WE prefer... and STILL shoot out people.
ReplyDeleteOkay. Maldon007. Thanks for what you're doing - sharing paintball-related information that has benefited you for the purpose of helping others improve their game and enjoyment of the sport. As easy as it would be to turn up a nose and quickly bark an ego-fueled response, I'll take your info for what it is - a fellow pump player helping keep the game alive. Preach on!
