How many tubes do you carry for a game?

Last time I played (second time) I rented a harness that held two tubes.
Beside my crappy gun going out on me, I barely used up my tubes. I see players with a bunch of tubes on their back (for woodball). How many tubes do you carry?

I play back in speedball, and it is not hard at all to go through 7 140rd pods.

I carry 3 Dye 160 Round pods + 180 in the Revy to start. That's 660 shots.
I play front so I don't shoot nearly as much paint as those in back do.

i use 2 pods and sometimes run out of paint. but since i only play with half a case after using my first pod its a sign to be conservative.

I also like to carry a water bottle and a mini first aid kit with the basics in it, just in case

i bring in a hopper full, thats it. Usualy i'll only use half of it. Somtimes i'll have to borow paint from someone, and sometimes i wont shot more then 10 shots. Dont be mistaken though, with as little as i shoot, i still get about the same amount of people out as everyone else going threw lots. I just make my shots count.

I use 200 in the hopper and between 1-4 100 round pods. This is for woodsball in my field. In the trenches I shoot around 1 or 2 pods and when i play on a huge hill, I take 4 pods defending it. Just play a lot of you'll learn how much you'll want to use.
