ima do this, and use a flour recipe, make some bannock mixed with SOME ANIMALS fat that ill transform into oil, any recommendations on WHAT ANIMALS I SHOULD NOT GET OIL FROM??? thankss
"There's nothing more manly than hunting down a large predator, killing it, collecting its fat, rendering it and then rubbing it on your face!" LOL! XD
I like it. I've used deer fat before, and yes fresh wintergreen has way more oils and produces a lot more smell! Newish to your channel, really liking your content! Full stop gang
I came here so fast that the quality of the video is still 360p. I wish we had bears in my country so that I could try this but we barely have any wild life here. Love your video as always buddy
oil evaporates from the plants as you dry them. So yes. Maybe try with the green ones. But it'll still be extremely weak. You'd have to destil a large quantity of winter green to get the essence you want
Fullstop each time! Every time WB! Interesting experiment. I think if you had mortar an pestaled the winter green it would have released the oils. Also a slight "blanching" of the leaves in hot oil over the fire would've made the leaves release thier oils too. Just a thought, maybe bext time. Keep doing what ur doing bud.
There is not enough wintergreen in all of the north woods to make all of the natural flavored candy, and gum. The same chemical that is found in wintergreen is also found in the cambium layer of black birch, and to a lesser extent in, yellow birch. Pick a twig of yellow birch, crush it, and take a whiff.
You've made a huge difference for me. I've been an urbanite web developer for 15 years and it's people like you and these videos that made me realize I was in the wrong life. At 40 Years old I'm changing careers, moving from Montreal to Abitibi to study/work in forestry management and planning to learn a few gathering/hunting/fishing skills from the local experts along the way. I'm also thinking of maybe filming/vlogging this new journey of learning, in the hopes of motivating others like me that they can do it too. That's assuming I wont fail miserably, but why would I? Now that my heart's in the right place, there's no failing!
You have a much less impact on the environment than I do i hunt and eat from a store soni am doing both and never thought about it until now thanks forbthe eye opener
As a woman I love beards, my boyfriend hates his facial hair but I love it. Luckily for me he keeps it just for me haha, what a treat it is for me. We're in a long distance relationship but one thing I look forward to doing more than hugging him is petting his beard! ♥
Farms often provide food for animals, which is much needed in years of draught for animals like deer. Hailstorms can decimate local populations of game birds to the point of not being able to recover, and crops like milo and wheat give a much needed boost. CRP is a program of leaving prairie land unplanted to give natural habitat for animals. Walk through a mile of CRP and a mile of milo and see what has more pheasants and prairie chicken (threatened species). Also, a large ranch with cattle does not usually drive out any species, and can often benefit the ecosystems.
I know so many people who only have a beard in the winter. It's annoying to those of us who embrace the bearded culture. We deal with our beards through the rain, heat and frost. Beard brushes all over the place so we can always brush it out. Those of us with longer beards ensure the constant hairs getting caught in jacket zippers and waking up with a beard that's a mess bc of sleeping on it. Like you i look at my beard as my approval as a man. Not saying anyone without one isn't a man. You are just a different type of man lmao j/p. Respect to all with or without a beard.
Your footprint on mother earth is a baby's compared to the average person, is that all your land that u are on , and a shout out to your brother. He is a work horse..Great work love the videos...
Hehe my mouth was watering while you were eating that crackling, cant get bear crackling in Scotland. My wife loves my beard although it's going a bit white now.
You could have filtered the cracklings with the winter greens, that's an old technique to filter milk for cheese production. From my experience extracting schmaltz it's better to keep the tissue from becoming a cracker because it gives away that fried fat odor, better to boil it or to bain-marie.
enjoyed video..this year I plan to do up my bear fat to lard for cooking.other times we just cut all the fat off and discarded it.as you show it can be use for so many uses
I know it is not the season, but when it is do you harvest salmon eggs via the river method? : ) peace ps: not sure if harvest would be the correct action.
When rendering lard, the most benign lard for baking a pie is from kidney fat. That makes "pearl lard". I reckon a bear is the same way. Other fat can be utilized for everything else, but never make that mistake with bakery items. Pearl lard is making a comeback now among chefs.
I rendered and saved fat from a bear I got a few years ago and used it for boot grease. Worked very well on an older pair of danners but I read somewhere that some companies will void warranty on boots if you use bear grease instead of "approved" synthetic oils.
I feel that you should know how you have made a difference for me. I was never really big into a bunch of different meats. I prefer chicken and even that.. Only really boneless, skinless white meat.. Until recently that is. Watching your wilderness challenges I started being able to eat the fat and skin of chicken which always just felt like warm snot and made me gag. But because of watching you eating all these different foods I actially enjoy it. I find my mouth watering at the foods you make and because of what you have shared about native americans and how our ancestors had to live I want to start making the switch to at least better raised foods until incan hunt and catch food myself. Or in a shtf situation. I know i will be able to eat a raccoon and acctually really want to try it. You have made me think differently about different kinds of animals as food. You have made a difference in myself and my wife who also wants to try other animals. Thank you. You have shown me a lot and shown me different perspectives and also shown me a different way to think about food and where it comes from.
This might be kind of a dumb question but wouldn't rubbing something that smells like food on yourself attract wild animals to your campsite at night? I believe I heard once that sleeping in the clothes you cook in attracts raccoons.
Wish I could grow my beard back, but my job doesn't allow me to have one unfortunately. Still, this is something to keep in mind for when I do get it back. Cool stuff mate.
Always full stop bearded brother..my family and I hung and gather probably 90 percent of our food, with exception of coffee, sugar, flour ect..I wouldn't have it any other way. Great video Chris
Awesome video. Been using bear grease for years. Lip balm, beard oil, preservation of leather, fire starter.... Rendered properly, no smell, very light and clear. Makes for awesome biscuits and gravy too.
I live in Ontario near toronto and I would love to try some one day you have opened my eyes in a lots of things that I would love to try out myself!. Keep up that awesome work! Full stop lol
I'm glad you give the message of sustainability and being as little impactful as possible with ones environment, it's a good message, I'd love to try Bear fat I've eaten so many other creatures and tried to vary it as much as possible. Also always wanted to try pine needle tea and other natural teas.
*I hope you guys aren't taking this video too seriously!*
*I kinda have Instagram:* instagram.com/the_wooded_beardsman/
My beard feels sad now I have to get it a bear next season
@The Wooded Beardsman

Brother sint whatsip nomber pl
"People without beards are people with beards without beards."
*wat*
Its True!
You don't have a beard because you haven't grown out your beard is how I understood that.
I said that 3 times out loud just for myselfe only to remember it for later conversations :) It's a funny saying.
He smoked the fat lol
Classic haha
"There's nothing more manly than hunting down a large predator, killing it, collecting its fat, rendering it and then rubbing it on your face!"
LOL! XD
It's not his beard, its our beard.
Our daily beard
Our collective Beard.
ussr nations anthem
We Don't do that here.
A full beard knows the direction of true north and increases one's skills in fire making.
That's some legit fire making...I just set a goal for myself to make a friction fire in 2019
Your sarcasm in this is hilarious. This is how you should treat all the hater comments
I like it. I've used deer fat before, and yes fresh wintergreen has way more oils and produces a lot more smell!
Newish to your channel, really liking your content!
Full stop gang

Hmmm, interesting!
I was just thinking the other day. Man I wonder how manly my beard would look if I apply some bear fat. Question answered. THANK YOU SIR!
Full stop. My beard appreciated watching this with me.

Getting back into watching these survival videos. But always supporting trust me. Keep the beard long and strong brotha
glad to see this,I hope people take it to heart and use your beard tutorial, its perfect.
Gonna make my own beard oil now. The thing i love about your vids are all the ideas you end up giving me to try out. Thanks WB

I have a beard.... I am manly... but this man... Is Godly.

Of course! And yes, it is more work to keep a beard than just shave it, which is why, of course, it is earned!
I can't believe i forgot how funny this dude is.
Your footprint on mother earth is a baby's compared to the average person, is that all your land that u are on , and a shout out to your brother. He is a work horse..Great work love the videos...
Hehe my mouth was watering while you were eating that crackling, cant get bear crackling in Scotland. My wife loves my beard although it's going a bit white now.
i'm a girl and you're making me want to grow a beard lol
In fact u can grow your hair with it
this video was manly af.. I mean i was clean shaven, by the end of the video i had a full blown beard thanks man!
You’re not impacting the environment. You’re being a man! Nothing to apologize for.👍
Nice to see you have your voice back. Hate and deplore your silent movies in this day and age
I cannot see why people have any negative opinions about you or what you do. Such an amazing lifestyle.
I just watched someone turn part of a bear into oil...let that sink in.
You could have filtered the cracklings with the winter greens, that's an old technique to filter milk for cheese production. From my experience extracting schmaltz it's better to keep the tissue from becoming a cracker because it gives away that fried fat odor, better to boil it or to bain-marie.
You sir, are a goober, buy your videos are more amazing because of it! Keep living the dream
enjoyed video..this year I plan to do up my bear fat to lard for cooking.other times we just cut all the fat off and discarded it.as you show it can be use for so many uses
Iam with ya brother wilderness living is the way and only way i ever find peace
Best beard quote ever!
Thanks Chris for zooming into that ember cuz you know us UA-cam fans have to see it in a single shot.
nice beard hack, cool video.😲
you're so humble. I LOVE it.
Great job wood beard see you on the next one
Love it, brother!! Lmao but really great shots of the brook trout and waterfalls.👍
Watching these vids are refreshing in my office environment which is so far from my true home
Perfectly made and well done. Your beard looks majestic af.
Watched the whole video. Good skills man.
Full stop every video!
Nice to see some running water and bare ground. We are overstocked with snow here in North Bay.
Probably the best intro ever lol
I have been primarily on a wild game diet since 2014, losing over 180 lbs and have a very healthy blood panel and yearly physical. I agree.
That's awesome!
I know it is not the season, but when it is do you harvest salmon eggs via the river method? : ) peace ps: not sure if harvest would be the correct action.
Fall.
Full stop another great video beard

Funny video, good tutorial on how to have a sense of humor.
Absolutely love your videos! I find myself laughing out loud often!
I rendered and saved fat from a bear I got a few years ago and used it for boot grease. Worked very well on an older pair of danners but I read somewhere that some companies will void warranty on boots if you use bear grease instead of "approved" synthetic oils.
Love that grohman knife bud
I bet that works good I use the honest Amish beard oil and it works good too
I agree with the way that you eat off of the land. My mother swore that bear oil would grow hair on bald patches, she said it worked for her father.

Great video you could almost here your beard roar like a bear when you put on the oil.
Love it my man !!! I think I will let my beard grow now !!
Wild man bearded man...big fire. It’s all good.
I like the trout and the scenery ; I am alpha but I don't need to hide my face behind a beard; alpha is in the eyes; all the best
This might be kind of a dumb question but wouldn't rubbing something that smells like food on yourself attract wild animals to your campsite at night? I believe I heard once that sleeping in the clothes you cook in attracts raccoons.
The WOODEDBEARDSMAN INFOMERCIAL 😁
Amazing video love your work
Post op! Love the vids! Keep it up mate.
Wish I could grow my beard back, but my job doesn't allow me to have one unfortunately. Still, this is something to keep in mind for when I do get it back. Cool stuff mate.
