Dave should be given his own TV show Forget the past He isn't lying about how to survive He shows how to handle all different conditions and how to live comfortably while in the while
Dave's entire philosophy is summed up here. It is one I buy into 100%. In the modern age, IF YOU ARE IN DIRE STRAITS, you need CERTAIN ITEMS as well as certain skills to sustain yourself. He calls it as it is. You are not Dave (who needs a lot less than anyone else). Many people have the idea that they are going to go back to the year 1815 and "SURVIVE." Ain't a gonna happen.
God Bless Dave.....he's awesome for giving out all his knowledge. He's not only got solid skills, but they're based on a solid philosophy, which is almost more important. Love watching and absorbing his wisdom.
Awesome video sir. And I love your bushcraft book. My wife got it for me for Christmas and I’m really enjoying it and learning a lot! And, it led me to your UA-cam channel!
Once again, Dave, another awesome video with tons of info. I love the way you teach this. You not only explain WHAT to do, but the WHY and the HOW! It doesnt get any better than that! Watching these videos you make, really gets me pumped about heading for the woods! Cudos brother and keep up the great work! Jeff
Another great video Dave!! Thank you so much for freely sharing so much of your knowledge and experience. Much respect brother.... be well and stay frosty!!
your the best Dave. thank you so much for theses i love them all. theres no shitty video you make. they are all the most informative amazing things ever
GOOD TO SEE YOU BACK ON THE TUBE DAVE!!! Been watching your videos since back when you made a selfbow with the TBT in the winter time, great lessons, Thank You.
What a fantastic channel. Everyone should watch your videos at least once. Who knows when you'll need to know little things like this. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos!
This video is awesome! Very well researched and presented. A no-nonsense, practical approach backed up by historical accounts. Just subbed. Thanks Dave
Just Pulled My PathFinder Pocket Hunter "Sling-Bow" Outta the Mailbox! I'm So Happy I Finally Got One! Thanks So Much Dave! I Kept Tryna Make My own at home But It just wasn't Very stable, But Now Im the Proud Owner of The Pathfinder Pocket Hunter System! Great Addition To the "Critter Getter" Pocket in My Pack! Once Again Thanks for All the Priceless Knowledge you Hand Down FREE Daily! So Forget All these TROLLS on here, Just Know You are Helping Many others! Alot of Us APPRECIATE what you do!
Great vid Dave! Great content and info. I like the direction you are taking with everything, your explanations are clear and very easy to understand. Very pertinent, practical and no non sense. It seems to me these things will get it done as best as possible in the context of the situations you are talking about. Thanks for passing on you knowledge..
I love these sustainability videos. I come at this from a prepper standpoint. We have practiced self-sufficency for the last 6 years. We have bug out bags, and it's really a last resort for us. This video validates what we have included in our bags, which gives us some sense of assurance. But there is nothing like practicing, and we do that as well. I would love to see more videos in the future about your farm and long term self-sufficiency. Like raising birds, or rabbits, goats, etc...
My respect for you has grown even stronger now, after the manor you dealt with a troll. You've shown that not only are your tools bullet proof, but so are you. Kudos brother!
Great Dave as usual! No one informs better. With the forecast difficulty's, I was making up a starter list of traps and kept thinking about the 101 Conibear for food. As a kid, I became expert at tracking rabbits to their holes but never had a conibear. Just my homemade box. I got enough of them anyway but the trap makes it a piece of cake. Been the camp tracker for a long lifetime. Coolest ever was tracking up my Grand daughter's first big game kill. Yes, it was not practice, just rookie jitters. Seen it a ton of times. Keep doing the good work, Dave!
Amen Dave! I would be suspicious if you didn't want to make money--nothing wrong with a man supporting his family. I'm VERY appreciative that you found a way to do so that also helps and teaches so many people like myself. I've seen nothing but integrity from you--you've always been upfront about any products you sell/promote and I've always appreciated your opinion on just about everything. Don't worry about trolls like this guy. 99.99% of us love you, respect you, and appreciate all you do.
Dave, this was just about the most informative vid you've done. And very well, I might add. If anybody wanted general info about wilderness survival, this is the one to watch. Like hearttyc said, I, too, would watch a 4 hour ramble. I've watch hundreds of survival vids, but you're the King Silverback of 'em all. No doubt about it, Bro!
I cant say how much I personal enjoy the historical information and all the historical data you have on your videos Dave . I hope that the people that put togther tv shows take note and can put togther a historical survival show of new ideas based on historical teachings and ideas ! Also I could not help but think of Cody when you talked about the shoes . Dave thankyou Sir the videos are great .
Another great video! Conservation of resources is something I have always heard you preach, and it is very interesting to think how the people of Louis and Clarke's time had to live it, and what they used to do so.
I love all your Videos Dave but i have to say that this one is one of the best informational Video's on Sustainabilty you have ever done.Great job and i as i am sure many others learned alot.I have to agree with you Dirt time and knowing your suroundings is huge when it comes to Survival and Sustainability.I have also noticed that many of our frontiersmen Treasured there cooking pots as well or just as much as there Rifle.Thanks again for one of the greatest Videos out there on sustainabilty.
Great video Dave this is exactly why I subscribe to your channel. Don't let the arm chair survivalist kids get you down your never going to please everyone especially the mama's-basement-armchair types.
Dave I am glad you are in the business of selling useful outdoor gear, shows me you stand behind your products which I have bought a couple of great things from your store. Also I thank you for making videos for people to watch learn from&pass on your skills FREE of charge.( I dont think people remember the time y'all put in for free) Because of watching you&others then trying the skills out I have learned so much. I like the "common-man themed videos alot, Thank you for sharing the knowledge!
you are such a smart person, people like you make the world of outdoorsman much better. i respect you and your knowledge of the outdoors, and thank you for making these videos. ever since i started watching your videos, my knowledge of the outdoors has been doubled. sincerely, a very satisfied viewer.
I'd die in a long term situation . . . but I know where I'm going so, no big deal. However, I did like that little trick you did with the lid from the MSR Stowaway Pot. Sticking the fish mouth spreader into the lid's loop to make a fry pan was pure genius. I, certainly, had never thought of it before. Thanks Dave!
dave keep up the great work,because of your teachings i am more aware of my surrondings ,and place in the wild,also not afraid of being lost i know i can make it if i have to until im found,as you say knowledge replaces fear thanks ...
Ive been watching alot of your videos and i am very impressed by the extent of your knowledge and your willingness to share it... If i knew how to attend your school i would most definitely. But until then i have alot to practice :)
fantastic video brother!! i love vids on kit and how and why you use it. its super helpful and informational. keep up the fantastic work sensei woodsman!
awesome vid. I cant get enough of this subject. If you can make a part 2 of Survivability vs Sustainability, please do it! I just bought a wool blanket and pute my sleeping bag in the closet. Dave you are the best!
Just thought I'd say, I plan to purchase the lion's share of my gear from wildernessoutfitters. You guys are awesome, your gear is awesome, and these videos are impeccable. Great job! Keep safe out there brother!
Great and very informative vid bro! Like the way you combine facts, actual stuff and the historical background of all those. thx for this buddy take care and god bless Mike
The knowledge transfer here is incredible. I only found your channel two days ago trying to work my way through the videos. I am not sure if you have covered hygiene for long term several weeks or so. If you have I'll find the video eventually, but if not could you go over this subject please sir. You're a great teacher Dave thanks for sharing this info freely
good video, dave. i really enjoy the historical references. another aspect of the frontier life was how these early explorers were constantly defending themselves from the native americans. surviving/sustaining all while looking over their shoulder, or being ready for night raids in their camp.
Great video! You brushed on the topic of footwear. I would like to hear your opinion (the whats and whys) on proper woods footwear. My needs in the rocky mountains may be different than yours in the eastern woodlands, but I'd still would very much like to hear them.
I think I understand something...because I haven't thought about it quite enough. Then you put out one of these videos. Thanks, Dave! I say this every time, but I really appreciate the history...I assumed moccasins were the way to go, simply because they're used in all the fiction set at that time and I haven't tried them; and it's really cool to know that pots were THAT important.
Hey Dave ! Let me tell you , I like going over things , gives you peace of mind . My wife tells me she's seen my gear change over the years and she can't keep up anymore but she knows I'm safe . 15-20-25 pound pack or just what's in my pocket for a stroll in the dirt , this is my church I think . THANKS DAVE !!!
Dave, you always thank (us) at the end of your videos. I just want to Thank You Brother! I might be going homeless shortly and you might be helping to save my life. I will be able to pay a storage unit: shelter, gym membership: shit shower shave. While I look for empoyment my food will have to come from sling shot, cast net, fishing, snares. I will not be pan handling. Public Library for internet connection(job searching) Not off the grid, but my survival senario. I am almost excited TY
Thank you very much for this video, Dave. I've always wondered how the colonists handled traveling across the western frontier effectively without compromising their sustainability during travel. It seems like the faster you try to go, the harder time you're gonna have actually sustaining yourself.
be gladful that he gives you so much advise and help! of course he has to live from something but these items will keep YOU alive, not only him because you bought it from him.
Dave should be given his own TV show
Forget the past
He isn't lying about how to survive
He shows how to handle all different conditions and how to live comfortably while in the while
Awesome advice in 2019
Dave's entire philosophy is summed up here. It is one I buy into 100%. In the modern age, IF YOU ARE IN DIRE STRAITS, you need CERTAIN ITEMS as well as certain skills to sustain yourself. He calls it as it is. You are not Dave (who needs a lot less than anyone else). Many people have the idea that they are going to go back to the year 1815 and "SURVIVE." Ain't a gonna happen.
i dont know how, but he blew my mind when he just magically had a frying pan
Dave's enthusiasm has me watching non stop! Outstanding teacher no doubt.
God Bless Dave.....he's awesome for giving out all his knowledge. He's not only got solid skills, but they're based on a solid philosophy, which is almost more important. Love watching and absorbing his wisdom.
Love what you do Dave, you are very much appreciated in what you bring us.
Dave, I gotta say, I never get tired of hearing you talk. So much wisdom and knowledge.

Another excellent video....nicely done Dave.
Awesome video sir. And I love your bushcraft book. My wife got it for me for Christmas and I’m really enjoying it and learning a lot! And, it led me to your UA-cam channel!

I appreciate you too Dave; it has been a joy and absolute pleasure to learn together with you as we strive to retain the core skills of the tribe.

GOOD TO SEE YOU BACK ON THE TUBE DAVE!!!
Been watching your videos since back when you made a selfbow with the TBT in the winter time, great lessons, Thank You.
What a fantastic channel.
Everyone should watch your videos at least once.
Who knows when you'll need to know little things like this.
Thanks for taking the time to make these videos!
One of your best instructional videos. Thank you again for being so squared away.
Keith
Dave... thanks for your service in the military as well as all the survivability/sustainability advice... this is all very useful information...
Great point!! I have always said your first, and most important gear is your clothing system!
This video is awesome! Very well researched and presented. A no-nonsense, practical approach backed up by historical accounts. Just subbed. Thanks Dave
That's a lot of information with zero wasted time. Excellent video. Thanks Dave.

You are awesome Dave! Love your videos, and the weath of knowledge you have. Thank you for passing it along!!!!!!!
Great vid Dave! Great content and info. I like the direction you are taking with everything, your explanations are clear and very easy to understand. Very pertinent, practical and no non sense. It seems to me these things will get it done as best as possible in the context of the situations you are talking about. Thanks for passing on you knowledge..
Outstanding video. Love the "concept approach" (not always just "skills approach").
I love these sustainability videos. I come at this from a prepper standpoint. We have practiced self-sufficency for the last 6 years. We have bug out bags, and it's really a last resort for us. This video validates what we have included in our bags, which gives us some sense of assurance. But there is nothing like practicing, and we do that as well. I would love to see more videos in the future about your farm and long term self-sufficiency. Like raising birds, or rabbits, goats, etc...

Keep doing the good work, Dave!
Very awesome video ! Knowledge is key ! THANKS ALOT ...Alan in 🇨🇱
Amen Dave! I would be suspicious if you didn't want to make money--nothing wrong with a man supporting his family. I'm VERY appreciative that you found a way to do so that also helps and teaches so many people like myself.

Thank you Dave. Very usable, concise, and streamlined. It won't be wasted.
Awesome video Dave, lots of useful information and good kit mentality! Thanks for all the great videos, take care!
Awesome video Dave
Your videos are by far the best thing on youtube.
Love the historical info and practical knowledge. Got my PF bottle/cup/spreader set yesterday. Very nice. Using it right now.
Dave, your my hero, i'd love to join your school if i had the time, and the means, but i appreciate your videos. Keep it up.
Hooyah, another great video Dave! I look foreward to seeing how the bucket garden has come along.
Thank you for being so awesome!!
Dave. You rock brother. Hands down a great video.

^ Real American Hero! Dave, your insight is invaluable. Thanks for using your dirt time to help us city slickers learn what is what. All the best.
dave keep up the great work,because of your teachings i am more aware of my surrondings ,and place in the wild,also not afraid of being lost i know i can make it if i have to until im found,as you say knowledge replaces fear thanks ...
