what do you use for eye / face protection?
I've seen people wearing bandannas over their mouth with safety glasses, i think they're crazy. i bought a mask from evike.com its a matrix cactus hobby mask. very nice. could use a little more padding, but all together, a very nice buy. lets see what YOU wear, Sound Off!!
SORRY, MODS.... I thought I had hit spell check.

Sometimes I use goggles only, usually open field. Other times I use a trimmed down paintball mask, usually CQB

I always only wear goggles, unless it's enforced that I wear some kind of face protection. Then, it just depends.

I wear a Scott full face mask. Most of the time I take the bottom part off and wear a neoprene half face mask under it because with the bottom part of the mask on, I can't see through my scope.

I usually wear a balaclava with goggles. Though sometimes I just roll with goggles only.

Goggles, hat/veil, lower face hunting wrap. Sometimes face-paint.

7sinssinner, we expect people to use proper spelling, punctuation, and capitalization if they're going to post here. This is your first warning.
I wear a normal JT paintball mask. It makes it hard to get a proper cheek weld, but I compensate by putting my optics on risers.

The bandannas actually arent too bad, they are quite airy and versatile, they also help a bit to break up your face which helps (just not if you're using a vibrant color).
I find that I feel "confined" in a paintball mask of any kind, so I avoid those.
Neoprene works for me in the winter, but in the summer it seems to get all soppy with sweat and spit, which then makes it start smelling kinda funny after a few seasons.

I like to think i look pretty bad arse in the mask. I've been hit in the face with a sniper rifle from 15' away, in the house, noneless. Not Cool. I don't want to lose a tooth, you know? But to each his own. That's why I thought I'd ask. Thanks guys!

Engagement limits. Yes, I know. I have yet to play in a REAL game. I was in TN working with my uncle and cousins and they got me HOOKED!! We always played in the woods. Only trees to hide behind. We never used any of the normal rules for engagement, only for hits and respawning. It made things interesting, but more fun! A long day at work, then able to take out frustrations on family. I have nothing else to say!

I play with Bolle T800's, and sometimes if I feel a bit exposed I wear a shemagh . I really don't wear anything else on my face. During CQB, I like to wear a a balaclava to protect my ears, nose, and teeth.

Arena FlakJaks and a bandana around my neck that I can pull up if I feel the situation will call for it (running in the open, hot fire fights). To me, its the best way to go.
