Speedball and Woodball
Speedball is a very fast pased quik field to play paintball on. A speedball field is usualy made up of spindles balots and other pieces of wood. Woodball is also known as Bushball and other various names. Woodball is the "old school" way of playing sometimes the fields are huge and the games can last a while, but also sometimes the fields are small and tight which leads to a lot of fun and excitement. Usualy a Woodball bunker is made up of sticks and twigs and other "bushy" type things.

How to Play a Speedball Bunker
When playing a speedball bunker it is allways good to play the entire bunker. Look to the left and to the right, stand up if you can and look through wholes in the spools. It is also a wise thing to shoot through the holes in the bunker at your target, this will leave very little of your body exposed to his fire. But watch out some players will unload hoppers on a speedball bunker to shoot you through one of the holes so try and tuck in tight and hide your body to big holes. If its ok with your local field I like to stick empty speed pods in the holes so that its less area i have to worry about getting shot at. Also watch your feet when you are playing this, Spools are circular so there is allways an oppening at your feet. |

How to play a Woodball Bunker
Most of the time when playing a Woodball bunker you can play back a little from the bunker. this way you have a more open view of the field and your enemy has less of a view on you. It is also good to play the entire bunker! you can see stuff on your left side that you couldnt see from your right side of your bunker. Sometimes you should also shoot through the holes in your bunker at your targets. It is hard to get shot through the holes in your bunker but it can happen so watch out. |
