Hello, I am a student at Arizona State and have some questions for some research that I am doing. I would appreciate those who will take the time to answer these questions. I know they may sound lame, but it will help me out quite a bit.


Questions about money spent and equipment:

1. About how much do you spend in a year/month?

2. Where do you get most of you equipment from? (Ex. At the store on internet, or through catalogues)

3. Where would you say you spend most of your money? (ex on equipment, guns, ammo)

4. How do you hear about new products?

5. What piece of equipment is most important to you? (Besides the gun)

6. Questions about background in sport:
How often do you play?

7. How long have you been playing?

8. How did you hear about the sport?

9. In your social group what percent play with you?

10. What are some of your other hobbies or interests besides paintball?

11. General information questions:

12. What is some paintball slang terms you use or typically hear?

13. What piece of equipment would you like to see improved?

14. How many cases do you go through in a day of playing?

15. How many girls do you know that play?
