Capturing the flag!

Go down to woods in deepest Aberfeldy and you could be mistaken you had walked into a war zone! No only kidding! With significant performance in only his first year of trading Jonathon Wheeler has brought the popular sport activity of Paintballing to Perthshire with fantastic results.

Jonathon specialises in corporate, family and tourist clients and has scenarios and settings to suit all. This has all come about after a miss spent youth in the Royal Marines and a few years globe trotting where among other skills such as event managing he has learned the art of gold panning and canoe and white water rafting instructing. Digressing for one moment, Jonathon has also introduced the skill or gold panning to Perthshire, and yes believe it or not there is "gold in them there hills". Jonathon has led many successful "gold prospectors" into the outback with super results, but as always, finds are a closely guarded secret and to find your own gold, book an outing with Jonathon and have a very enjoyable day out in the "outback" looking for your own golden nuggets.

Still, enough of gold prospecting and back to the core part of Jonathon's Business Paintballing, until you have tried this activity it is hard to explain to the reader the transformation that can happen to you once you're out there pitting your skills and cunning against the foes, even if it is mum and dad or better still your boss! There is a real true sense of realism attached to the scenarios as you really want to win and do not want to be the one who gets "splattered". This is a great team building activity and is ideally suited to small companies and organisations. Perthshire Paintball Ltd has its base on a superb location in panoramic Aberfeldy not far from the small settlement of Dull. But dull it is not, surrounded by trees and forests along with open countryside the location makes an absolutely stunning day out for all ages.

The war party ready to go.

Safety is uppermost in the company's agenda and full safety briefings along with supervision from experienced "marshals" ensure a risk free day for all. Jonathon and his team have built this business from scratch and in the early days of building his business he supplemented his income by sub contracting to local white water rafting companies as a fully qualified instructor. So all in all you know that a visit to Perthshire Paintball will put you in safe hands and maybe if you are really lucky if you chose the gold panning, you might just find real "gold in them there hills".
