No other channel practice is not the way you do it, this is why you have so many subscribers, you actually teach, and you are an excellent teacher !!!
After studying survival and preparedness for the last 15 years I needed a break, so i took the last year off of shooting,camping, bush craft ect.... I took my son out on a camping trip 2 weeks ago and I had FORGOTTEN so many knots!!! I was literally fumbling with my ridge line for my tarp... Your videos have really helped jog my memory in the last few weeks and I can't thank you enough Corporal!!!
Thanks Corporals Corner. With sweat rolling down my face, tomato leaves blocking my view, insects crawling on my arms, and working with twine that splays as soon as I cut it, the Bowline is my go-to knot for trellising plants. It's easy to remember, easy to tie, easy on the plants, and easy to undo if I need to adjust things. This isn't on a par with setting up camp or doing a rescue, but if survival skills means incorporating rope craft into daily living, then it counts. My guess is you're reaching a far broader audience than the campers that you're addressing.
From a grown up Eagle Scout and a retired firefighter who's been on many a rescue in his career, I have to thank you for a most well done video on one of the most versatile and important knots there is. Well done! I am now a subscriber.
Life ran out of time for eagle can still do it rabbit comes out of the hole around the tree back down the hole
Tying a bowline around one's self with one arm is something that never occurred to me. Thanks for the heads up!
From all the videos I have seen, and plenty of people who have tried to show me how to tie a bowline this video finally helped me tie the bowline and running bowline.
I really appreciate your sharing how to practically apply these knots. So important when seeing it from the practical perspective (rather than a table top). I've spent many an hour relearning a knot based on the practical application, and how one is looking at the line. Thank you for this and your other videos.
Thank you, Corporal Kelly, for the single finest Bowline Knot video I have ever seen! Your decision to use I/O 1/4” rope instead of bank line or paracord made all the difference in the world for me!
Thank you for another good video and correcting the phrase “Practice makes perfect.” I teach my students ( public school teacher) that practice improves.
Damn! Now that's a friggin tutorial! Thank you so much for such an awesome manual. My hat is off to you, sir.
EVERY TIME I WATCH THIS CHANNEL I LEARN SOMETHING NEW.
orange rope and a black background GOOD !
A great review on not only how to tie a bowline, but how to apply it in a well demonstrated, clear and simple terms. You can never practice enough knots.
I almost didn't watch this because of the length of the video. Most bowline videos are about 2-1/2 min. SO GLAD I WATCHED THIS!!!
So many great lessons. I must've made about 10 screen recordings so I go practice all this stuff.
Great video my man. I love that you shoot outdoors. Thanks for serving! My boy is also an awesome Marine
Best demonstration of the bowline I have ever seen and I have been a ropes and knots kind of guy with 25 years in the fire service. A definite share video. Thank you
clear, concise, effective. This man is evidently a top-notch instructor! I've seen a bunch of knot videos (and thus youtube keeps throwing me more!) but this is the clearest yet. Thank you, and greetings from Sweden!
Always like going back through the older videos to brush up on knot skills. Excellent demonstration of the bowlines! Appreciate you brother!
I really don't know how to thank you Shawn, for everything you've done to let us enjoy the great outdoors even more. Cheers and cheers and cheers!
just like that! you make more sense than anyone else on youtube! thank you sir for your service. you are a great teacher. hey, just like that! awesome!
Thanks for the video, as a webmaster and scout leader I was surprised how many eagle scouts as adults could not tie this knot or any of the other basic knots. You videos show the knots and their uses, which is important, because it puts the knot in context. I considered that I mastered a knot when I could tie it behind my back using only mental pictures of th knot. Thanks for your videos.
The marline spike hitch way of tying the bowline just simplified and doubled the speed of tying it. Thanks!
Its the Ranger way to tie it
I have seen hundreds of guys, explaining bowlines in various situation but... hands down... you are by far the Best One. Thank you for your clear instructions and ways to do it
This is a dissertation level explanation, of the bowline knot. GTG. Thank you for sharing!
Better than any diagram could show. Thanks for making this so clear. Tying a bowline and hanking your cordage are fundamental. Your videos get the job done - first time, every time 😎
Best presentation of bowline tying I have seen, and I have seen a few, from sailing channels and elsewhere. If this is how the Marines in general teach things - Bravo.
An older video but well done enough to be evergreen.
Nice work man.
Great! Finally I've found an easy way to remember the bowline knot. Thank you!
Wow. The hand method which allows you to unfold 550 cord is how I'm doing my 550 cord in my backpack from now on. I can do this, tie it up, and just pull the bowline out to wrap around a tree, then basically have a spool to get to the next tree. Neat!
New knotter here. Quite possibly the best bowline knot tutorial out there. Thank you.
It only gets better, so far this is the best demonstration for the bowline that I have seen, thank you for this
Learned these in the boy scouts years back, but your videos give an awesome refresh in knowledge. Keep it up!
These are the best videos I've seen on knots and how to use them. I've learnt so much. Thank you.
I almost did not click in these video. But boy, I am so glad I did. So well explained, easy, your hands did not got in the way, you gave uses and precautions for this knot. Thank you for all of that!
You're a great teacher. Thanks
Good instructions thanks for posting this!! I use and teach the bowline a lot being a lineman I’m just going to recommend your video from now on!!!👍🏻
I absolutely love the bowline; use it in the garden to tie and shape trees and bushes. Use it for securing and then lowering branches to the ground when trimming trees (Use the running bowline). Use it to secure loads on my trailer (in conjunction with a sheepshank on the termination. I self-taught myself the marlin spike method. Loop, flip, pass through the pocket; it's so automatic for me. Thanks for sharing.
Very impressive single handed Bowline tying!!! Love this channel.
P.S. I used a Bowline and a truckers hitch to replace the laundry line. Excess cord as a toggle. The missus was impressed!!!
Another great set of survival instructions. Thanks, Brother.
Working on knots this week!! Thank you, Corporal Kelly!
Good stuff! The last method is the one I learned 40 years ago in the Seascouts except we did it without our wrist through the loop. That method works on rope as big as your arm. If you do it with two fingers around small line it works great too.
great stuff buddy, i used a bowline all the time when i was climbing cell towers, that was our primary working knot for rigging stuff up and down the tower. keep up the good work buddy!!
Thanks for Watching
I had to watch a couple of times before I realized that when doing the Marlin spike hitch version, you can identify which way to insert the end into by identifying which side of the pocket that has two lines crossing. If you put the end through from the side that has the crossing, you'll end up with the cowboy version. Insert it from the side with no crossings you will get the regular version.
With that knowledge it doesn't matter which way you twist to create the Marlin.
I can finally remember how to do the bowline!
Thanks for the lesson in hanking the cordage. How could I have become this old and not know how to do that? I appreciate your sharing your knowledge and skills.
This was a little bit of a tricky knot. I ended up using my leg instead of a tree for the 'tying around an object' part.
I like the Yosemite bowline best and even managed the one hand bowline after a couple tries.
Thank you for the clear instruction.
Absolutely brilliant. Loving your videos. Was talking to my dad today about this knot and let him tie one but I was amazed by how many different ways you can do this knot. I mean one hand. It doesn't get better than that. Well done excellent video keep them coming.
You teach this better than almost all the other videos about it, great job. Thumbs Up
Always presented clearly with excellent video to help this visual learner. Having watched multiple "1 handed bowline" videos, you're the first to show it this clearly - to the point I wish I had some rope on hand to practice. Thank you for your time and sharing your knowledge!
I love the Bowline! thanks for offering suggestions and variations to capitalize on this versatile knot!
That one handed tie demo was super !
Best video I've seen on the bowline - thanks for sharing - it really is excellent!
Thanks for this one - for my entire life I've been stuck with the rabbit up from the hole, around the tree and back down the hole approach. This shows a much more versatile bowline approach - especially the running bowline and, of course, the overhand safety hitch.
The best illustration i have seen yet! watched 1 guy for over an hour to very little success!!! Thanks
Well done, Corporal!!…...Several methods, concise, well thought out. Its always nice to have alternative ways for any knot.
Great video, clear easy to follow instructions. Great camera work to follow how the line was being manipulated.
Outstanding.
A really clear and concise coverage of the bowline. Not a wasted word👍
Thank you sir; your method of detailed teaching finally cleared up some confusion concerning this knot.
thank you for the info. great video ..it is comforting to know that there are people like you who are giving and willing to give for no ulterior motives other than helping others ...3 cheers to you sir
@2:51, tying the bowline using the Marlin Spike hitch is my new favorite way to tie a bowline. I practiced the first method of tying the bowline many times, yet would still fumble around trying to tie one. After trying it with the Marlin Spike hitch, I could get a bowline quickly and consistently every single time.
Someone may have already said this since this is an older video; however, I remember learning to do a one handed bowline with the over, under around and through method. I commented too soon. The one handed bowline was demonstrated. As always, thank you for all you share.
WOW!!!! GREAT DEMO!!!! VERY USEFUL INFO!!!! THANKS!!!
Your knot tying videos are always clear, concise, well explained and easy to follow. Thank you.
I was just thinking the same thing.
The best knot!
Thanks,
Clark
I feel comfortable using the bowline as my one knot, for everyday use, and especially in emergency/survival, so I could keep my thoughts in those stressful situations.
And, I found out that sailors and Army Rangers use this knot as their one knot.
Great instructions! I'm a lineman by trade . This is one knot we use daily. I will be sharing this videshow with young groundhands/trainie's. Sometimes I dont have the best bedside manors and this video may keep me from pulling out hair!
Do you play on the offensive or the defensive line? I played football from the 2nd grade up until my senior year of high school, but I was never fat enough to be a lineman. I was mainly always a running back and a defensive back, but I got to play some linebacker in PeeWees and Jr. High. I never got down in a 3 point stance or anything,, though, except for every now and then at practice. I still love football, even though I haven’t played it in many years, and I also like knowing how to tie knots. The only thing I don’t understand is what the 2 things have to do with each other, Like I said, I never played on the line, so that’s probably why I don’t already know this, but why do you need to tie knots as a lineman? That makes no sense to me. I figured it would be a holding penalty if you tied up the defense players with rope, but I could be wrong, I guess. Do you play a different version of football in your country or something, or do you and your friends just play with each other in the backyard, and tie each other up between plays, for homosexual reasons? I’m not sure how much I’d like playing in your league, because I’m into chicks, but as long as you enjoy it, that’s all that really matters. Anyway, good luck with your blocking and tackling, and all that kinky stuff y’all do with ropes. I hope you have fun, and never forget to wear a helmet, if you know what I mean. Try your best not to get too much doodie on your doodle, whatever you do. I’ve heard that’s a good way to get the AIDS. Good luck 👍🏿
Electrical or telephone(cable) lineman I believe he means, as he is referring to the groundhand(s) and trainees which isn’t part of American Football
Used this knot many times to aid in the felling of trees ,towing vehicles and now in camping activities,often used with a carabiner to speed things up
Hey! You just simplified the Bowline! It was a very useful and easy to understand tutorial!
Awesome as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Found this video right in time since doctor blew out arteries in my left arm leaving me crippled I'll practice the 1 handed bowlin knot. Outstanding!
I'm loving your knot series! Thanks👍
Great video! I watched over and over and tied everything I could using the bowline knot...thanks!
Live your video on bowlines we used to like saying the rabbit goes up through the hole around the tree and back down the hole It made it fun Keep up the good work my friend We need YOU CHEERS
Really like the alternative ways to make a bowline and really liked the awesome cord storage method; simple, logical yett I didn't even think of it , thank you
I have been trying to learn the bowline around a fixed object for a while now. Because of this tutorial, I finally have it. Thanks.
Very good presentation. Appreciate the added safety topics. I've been using this knot for a long time but still learned from this video. Thanks!
Excellent knowledge, content and presentation - as usual !
Thank you 👍
great stuff, i especially liked the one handed bowline! keep up the good work!
Thanks for another very informative video corporal, excellent step by step instruction. Keep them coming!
Wow, I never knew about the left handed bowline. Learn something new everyday.
I really love you videos man, you are the best
Well done, clear and concise with good visual acuity throughout. Keep it going and stay healthy.
Thank you Corporal for you easy to understand practical demonstration. I'm practicing as we speak. Thanks again!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. there are lots of instructionals out there but i like yours as you are very clear and simply explained. Thank you.
Thks. for the instruction, I now have a clear understanding of how the knot works and how to tie it several different ways.
perfect one handed demo
Thanks for clarifying this great knott for an old swab! Now to practice👍
I've been looking for this method on one-handed bowline - many thanks!
Best Bowline knot instructional video I’ve seen!!! Semper Fi Brother! 1/7
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise. I always enjoyed your cut and dried presentation format.
Ah the bowline my favorite and most used knot. The bowline(classic) reminds me of the ships bosun from my previous command. “Just tie a f****n bowline!” I tell ya it’s the little moments that makes life great
That was the first time I had seen a Yosemite bowline. The reminder to practice one handed did not go unnoticed as well. Thanks
Like your video's very informed and actually slowed down get a better understanding of whats going on and what happening.
The best and will keep me at it for the summer..... thanks Corporal.
I put off watching the vid for a few days because of the length - however I enjoyed it immensely. Thanks you so much (once again) for sharing. ATB. Nigel
It's long but it's comprehensive, and there's no wasted time.
Another one of your straightforward, crystal clear, zero bullshit videos. You should give lessons to other You Tube makers.
Excellent demonstration of the various way's to tie a bowline and it's uses. NB. I like the look of the cowboy bowline best!
A pleasure to watch and learn from you... Thank you very much...
Best instruction I've seen yet. Thank you!
One of my favourite knot. Very well and understandably demonstrated. Great educational video! Greetings from Germany, Azze
So happy that I came across your video.
You did a awesome job, very easy to follow.
Thanks so much. Learned so MUCH!!!THANKS
