So Paintball Field Paint is the ideal paintball for training, as it is cheap for companies to produce, therefore cheap for the consumer. It is recommended for a full day of airball/sup air practice you buy roughly 4-5 cases per person, and around 2-3 cases per person for a woodsball training day. Either way Paintball Field Paint is the best option for any team looking to have a genuinely successful training day! It is not recommended to be using Field Paint at any sort of competitive event, as they are not designed to have a brittle shell. They are designed souly for the purpose of providing a cheap paintball to the consumer, they are not especially designed to break easily on target, this would take extra cost for the manufacturer. It is recommended you shoot a “Tournament” or “Expert” grade paintball at any competitive event. This brings me to my next point nicely: field grade paintballs have harder shall as apposed to competitive balls, so they break less is markers for the most part. This allows your training day to run as smoothly as possible!
Paintball Field Paint will only usually come in a small color selection, this is not an issue for most people, they often come in orange, yellow and pink. And they will also be a consistant color, they do not come in multi tone half shelled and such.

Remember to make sure you haggle, suppliers are more than used to haggling and you will get a much better deal! Keep in mind the amount of money you are giving to the company!
Storage is very important, do not underestimate the importance of taking care of your paintballs. If you are looking to stock up with hundreds of boxes of paintbal field paint, then you must make sure that you have an adequate storage area for the paint. Paintballs require to be stored in a dry place, that has a consistant room temperature, you must avoid sunlight exposure aswell which will heat the paintballs and cause irreversable effects. The cold weather will equally cause changes in the makeup of the paintball, both heat and cold situations need to be avoided. Paintball manufacturers store thousands of paintballs in their warehouse facilities, but the warehouse has expensive climate control equipment, and the paintballs are protected from any natural influences such as sunlight. Paintball manufacturers also aim to only produce the amount of paintballs they know they can sell and transport within a few weeks of production, this is because paintballs also need to be turned in order to avoid damage. Paintballs that are not turned begin to produce dimples, where the fill of the paintball has been consistantly sitting on the same area of the shell inside the paintball and the shells are made from a flexible material. If you are looking to store paintballs for an entire season of training these are all things you need to take into account. It is recommended to completely turn over a box of paintballs every 1-2 days to avoid any damage to the balls, which will later cause jams and the balls to be destroyed in the barrel of the paintball guns. So make sure you or whoever you decide to let store your paintballs has enough time and patience to care for the paintballs, as otherwise your investment will not be worth while. This being said, IT IS a good idea to buy bulk quantities as you will get bigger discount the more you buy, therefore do not feel daunted by the prospect of caring for paintballs, as long as they are room temperature and turned every 1 or 2 days, you will be able to store the paintballs without damage for a very long time.
