Increase Your Mechanical Trigger Speed
April 16, 2008
Electronic paintball guns most often can shoot faster than mechanical paintball guns. This gives mechanical paintball guns a disadvantage on the field in terms of BPS.
Often mechanical paintball gun manufacturers will say that their gun can shoot up to a certain bps. In reality the paintball gun itself may be able to shoot that fast, but there is a difference between how fast a person can shoot versus how fast the paintball gun itself can shoot.If you want to increase your mechanical paintball gun's BPS the first step may be to improve your trigger speed. Most likely you may not be shooting your mechanical paintball gun as fast as you really are capable of.
How Can You Improve Your Mechanical Trigger Speed?
To gain a little more of an advantage on the paintball field that is often ruled by electros, and to achieve the maximum BPS you are capable of with your mechanical paintball marker, I recommend you check out the following training device.
It's called the GripMaster, and it's made for anyone who wants to increase their strength, control, endurance, coordination and dexterity in their fingers, hand, wrist, and forearm.
With the GripMaster you can exercise each finger individually. Use it to exercise your trigger finger(s) by pressing down all the way, and then trying to do it as fast as you can. The GripMaster comes in different tensions represented by different colors. The yellow one has 3lbs of tension, blue 5 lbs, red 7 lbs, and the black one has 9lbs.
I recommend either the yellow, blue, or red one. I have been using the red one and noticed nice results in a matter of weeks of using it regularly. My trigger speed for my mechanical paintball gun went up several BPS. I also noticed that I now have better control while holding my paintball gun.
You can use the GripMaster while you're at the computer, watching TV, wherever you want. Overall I'd have to say this was a pretty sweet buy. I'm happy with the results it has given me, and I think that other mechanical owners will be happy as well.
It's a great way to increase your mechanical trigger speed and improve your game. You can find them for sale on Amazon.
i have to say this is the only method i have seen to increase grip strength/ speed kinda hard to rapidly depress 9 lb i wasn’t looking for anything fancy and had never come across anything like this what i use is one of those things that loks like a nut cracker and just use my index and middle finger it has also increased my rate of typing i have used it for about 2 weeks now and my typing has increased from 10charectors p/sec to 15 and my ball speed has increased from 8bps to 13 i used a speed test on the computer to clock it so it’s not that accurate
