1. Don't hang to close to the bunker, keep at least two feet away. This allows you to see what's going on instead of staring at a piece of wood or what ever the bunker is made out of.

2. Keep moving, don't hang in the same spot, unless you are doing something useful.

3. Talk to your team mates, it's amazing what they can see and you can't.

4. Don't go alone, pick a battle buddy and stick with him/her. The more people you have the better. Chances are you will run into a guy on the other team that though it would be cool to go out on his/her own and now he ran into the three of you.

5. Move when your opponent has just hit the bunker. Your opponent is going to hide behind the bunker for a few seconds to catch breath and/or figure out what to do next. This is a great time for you and your battle buddy to rush the poor sap.

6. Never publicly announce that you are out of paint or air. If your out of paint, just blow air, if your out of air, make a distraction like running and screaming.

7. Don't be afraid of the other guys equipment or jersey. Just because they have a $1200 gun and a JT jersey, doesn't mean they can't be eliminated. I have seen a man with a Brass Eagle Stingray take out six well respected Auto Cocker bearing players.

8. Don't waste your paint on people you can't hit. If your target is farther than 100 ft, then don't bother painting the obstacle with 600 rounds.

9. Always announce a bounce, spray, or a miss to the guy shooting at you. Always check yourself, if you don't know for sure, ask a ref to look you over, It's just polite.

10. Don't tell the player to call themselves out, that is the refs job, if you think he is out, ask for a paint check.

11. Be a good sport, say "Good shot player" when you get out and "Thank you for your honesty" when you get them out.

12. Get some good camouflage that closely relates to the terrain you play in. Avoid flashy gun parts and bright colors. If you see your opponent first you have the advantage already.

13. Use your cover. Don't be afraid of getting dirty to get cover under a log, or getting wet to use the bank of the creek.

14. Have a plan.

15. Have fun.
