Haul Your Balls

How much paint do you carry at an event ? And what do you feel is the best vest or belt to carry that extra case with you?

Normal woodsball scenario I carry between 300-400 rds between my hopper and pods. I like my old school 4 (90 rd) pod Unique Sports belt with one one slot holding a small bottle of water. Light weight and simple ususally more then enough for me to stay out there all day with out reloading [that being I can keep from being eliminated ].

For MOUT sites I carry about 600-800 rds between my hopper and pods in my personally modified tactical vest. I use this because you do tend to shoot more at MOUT sites and the vest helps take up some of the abuse to the body from the close range shots. It's heavier and hotter though

I just use what is in my hopper for recball. For normal scenario play I will typically bring 4 or 5 pods with me. If I am planning to lay some paint during a scenario, i.e. the last hour of a typical scenario, or base defense, I will zip on my other 4 pods making a total of 9 pods. Hauling close to a case of paint is pretty heavy, and I end up throwing more pods to other people than I use myself, but I would rather have a good player with paint to my left or right than be all alone with plenty of paint.

I use a Flury Vest w/ 4 pods. I like it d/t I do a lot of generaling and all of the pockets. I also have a rez 3+3 for those brutaly hot days. I also, use one of the pockets for a water bottle. I do have a 6 pod rez belt that I will keep in the base for extra paint.
