How many shots do you normally need to get to the level you want to be at...80 proof...(over the span of about an hour or two) I'd say at least 6-10
Stupid question. It depends on so many different factors: weight, age, sex, tolerance, etc.. Also define "level you want to be at." Are you talking buzzed, or drunk, or drunk to the point you're puking on yourself? A person who doesn't drink often probably wouldn't need many shots to get drunk quick.
Matt is right. A lot of factors come into play. I'm 5'9" and I think around 130 pounds, but I've been through what I would consider "light" alcoholism (mild withdrawl after months of almost daily drinking) last year, and I tend to have an average of about four drinks a day, these days. Six shots is when I start feeling it, more or less. I rarely exceed 12 anymore, though.
I don't drink the hard stuff too often and I usually don't measure it when I do or drink it to excess so I couldn't tell you. I just thought I'd note, along with what everyone else has mentioned (weight, age, sex, tolerance), that drinking on an empty stomach will fuck you over quicker. Keeping your body hydrated by drinking plenty of water while drinking will allow you to drink more without feeling as shitty. Typically one glass of water per shot or beer.
6'3" and 200lbs, and to get to the level thats good, about 12ish shots. To get completely smashed, it will take closer to 20 in under an hour
haha i am a light weight apparently 5'11" 143 lbs and i dont drink that much, but when i do approximately 6-10
6'2 180lbs...never counted usually drink a litre or case in a night...most ever was 3/4s of a handle... p.s. i drink a lot
I don't drink shots. We drink measures over here. I can have two measures in an hour. For the record measures are about two or three shots in one go.
2 one after the next on an empty stomach and i'd be a babbling mess. I'm a big dude, but I have zero alcohol tolerance because I hardly ever really DRINK
a find 10-12 shots of 80 proof gets me lightly drunk, and double that gets me shitfaced. give or take, depending on other factors. like beer. EDIT: 17 years of age, 150-155 lbs., 5'6"
