I also recommend that people think about carrying alternate tourniquets and they don't all have to be TCCC approved as Mountain Man Medical stated in the video not too long ago about tourniquets TCCC is a standardized rating for military-grade tourniquets and I'm assuming law enforcement as well throughout the great tourniquets that are not TCCC rated that civilians can use the work just fine. So for instance a CAT or SOFT-T (normal or wide) or some other TCCC certified tourniquet should be in everyone's kid probably in multiples, but there are a few others that are very worth having for instance to treat children or animals. The RATS is a quick one that can be used on most size people including children and it is easy to put on yourself possibly easier than a normal standard tourniquet, although that gross motor skills I'm not sure it's much easier than a normal tourniquet. Another one is the SWAT-T tourniquet that has about five different medical uses besides as a tourniquet and you can buy these folded into very small packages the size of a slim wallet. These are also I think ideal for pets unless you have a dog specific tourniquet (TacMed makes this for canines and they're specifically designed to taper correctly with the taper of a dog's leg) or you're falling back on a RATS system. SWAT-T is also idiot-proof and it is much wider than a standard tourniquet providing more pressure over a larger area for certainty with vascular compression and it is less painful however it is not a very secure tourniquet so I would not rely on one by itself and it's something that would probably need to be checked if an animal or a small person or even a normal adult size individual was being moved and repositioned with said tourniquet on because it could come loose.

What I got out of this is that I'm glad we had some of the same teachers, and there are universal truths when it comes to certain things. I have one of these in every car for the family. They are all designed for my region. It gets cold and sometimes wet above 6,500 feet, so being able to conduct basic vehicle repairs, fix-a-flat, make fire, make shelter, make traps and snares for small game, fish, make a rudimentary weapon, provide self and buddy aid, filter or boil water, signal, gain bearing, have spare eye wear, and return to civilization alive are packed with my "go bags". The intent is to survive them crucial hours where help is not yet on the way, or still a ways out, but provides for longer periods if things go completely t*ts up. Thanks again for all your hard work in making these videos. I appreciate them.
Thanks for this one. A suggestion, keep an old bath towel or 2, or a couple of old hand towels, in your vehicle that can be added to the bag if the situation calls for it. Many uses, from wiping away dirt/blood, drying off, makeshift pillow, limb elevation, additional insulation, cover from the sun, etc. Hope this is helpful.
Batman! This is one of, if not THE best go-bag discussions I’ve ever seen. “Tailor it to your area.” “Work in it over time.” It’s not a one solution fits all… which is what everyone seems to want, and too many UA-cam channels try to pander to. Saved for future reference, for basic go-bag philosophy.
I’m very impressed sir! One of the biggest reasons is that you aren’t selling anything!! You are helping us make a kit that is very well thought out, makes sense and I would bet used. Most of which can be found anywhere in the USA.
I based my go bag off Pat's "Sentinel" video from Panteao. Been refining it for years. It's about 3x the size though because I am in Canada and have different weather systems to deal with. Your kit needs to be customized to your environment. Definitely recommend this stuff. The mindset is the most important part.
The more I watch you , the more I realize you are just a Badass American with a huge heart. More Pat Mac's please. I am the same way, I wouldn't mess with me, LOL! Kidding.
Love the fact that you have emergency equipment for the fellow man, thank you and God bless. if I ever get myself in a pinch, I would pray a fellow man such as your self would come to the rescue. Pay it forward!!!!
Hunters Tacks! AWESOME! I never even knew these were a thing. I've carried 100' of neon yellow paracord for marking routes - I can just cut off a section and tie to a tree - high visibility in the day, but never had the reflective capability I wanted for low light/no light. Monkeyed around with the idea of using reflective tape or reflective Velcro wristbands/ankle bands they sell for running and jogging, that I could just wrap around trees/selective landmarks, but that seemed a bit too costly for something that would more than likely just sit in my pack. Just bought two packages of 50 on Amazon for less than 7 bucks total after seeing this. Always learning something new. Keep it up Pat !!
Yeah they are great for hunting as well. Marking the trail to your stand and back out is key since at least for midwest whitetail we go in dark and come out dark.
Batman , try Captain America ! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience ! Thanks for your service and sacrifice for our country ! God Bless you and yours ! Keep it COMING .
Great video and bag. The video was direct and to-the-point. The bag doesn't contain a lot of extra stuff and seemed to balance well between my two golden rules: "Ounces are pounds, pounds are pain" (i.g. don't carry what you don't need) and "Two is one, one is none" (i.g. carry more than one of your critical items in case of failure, loss, etc.).
👍👍 Great ideas, love the hunters tacks that's a really good item. Instead of the liquid stitches, I went ahead and ordered a wire suture kit and quickclot, it's a disposable skin stapler with 55 preloaded sutures. Click click go! Really digging these videos bro, keep em coming! 🇺🇸
Great stuff. Agreed it takes a long time to evolve the day go-bag or 72 hour kits. Always learning from the pro's. Don't forget to recheck your bag every six months to adjust for seasons, change batts, replace meds. Thank you Pat for the leadership and living by example.
Thank you Sir. And YES!!!! I definitely did get something out of this. Just last week I went to a stage play in Coffs Harbour NSW Australia by the name of Limboland. It was about natural disasters (fire and flood) and they were handing out Go to bags. Since then I've been thinking and asking myself what to put in the bag for that emergency that I hope never comes along. Thanks again for some good ideas. Regards from Oz.
Love the energy...one thing I would say is bring a cold steel spetsnaz shovel...you can take down trees, dig holes, or self defense. It's a great light weight, indestructible, and multifunctional tool
You really are Batman! Your medical supply Kung-Fu is strong. I just got some ideas to enhance my bag. My wife calls it the "emergency backpack" and she used to goof on me a little about it... until we needed it. I'll add a little here with the idea that, like you said, the contents are tailored to personal needs and a bit to where you live. Some of this may bleed over to my truck's own kit too. I'll add a tire plug kit. Being an avid off road enthusiast, flats are part of the deal and a tire plug kit will fix things fix a flat can't. However, this requires a compressor or compressed air/Co2. My truck carries a small compressor because I air down/up on the trail. I also carry glow sticks, zip ties, Advil/Excedrin, a whistle and a silcock key to turn on a commercial water spigot. I live/work in the suburbs, so I keep boots and extra clothes at work in case I have to walk home. I'm also, as a teacher, a state disaster worker, so if there is an earthquake or other occurrence, I have a duty to stay at work for up to three days, so I am ready for that. I've mentioned it before, and it's not a back pack item, but I believe a set of bolt cutters in a vehicle is important in the case you have to cut a lock or a fence. Same thing with a good pry bar or better yet, a Halligan. Come across a wreck or a car on fire and the pry bar or Halligan may make the difference between life and death. You are such a badass, your energy and intentionality keeps me coming back for more! Thanks for the content.
Pat ( dad I never had) you would be proud. I can hear the urgency in your voice. Thank you Sir. Lil mini o.c. spray. I always Cary high proof booze mini bottles, 2 for me one for you. This is perfect. Like you said, extra backpack. Load it up. We have all this stuff. 2 is 1...
Thank you sir. I truly enjoy your videos. I am starting a small business as a basic firearms/ church security instructor and I look to you, and among others of your talent, as efficient ways to teach.
I utilize the mini alcohol also, but on important thing is to choose something higher than 80 proof. I tend to go with cask strength whiskey. Better disinfectant and fire starter if you go over 120 proof
Do they sell everclear minis or something similar that is nearly 90% (depending on state) cheap nasty grain alcohol? Would pack the most punch per volume, while also encouraging others from pillaging my go bag for day to day activities 😆 plus it's pretty much clear ethanol without any additives for using as sanitizer (even slightly watered down) But I don't recall seeing anything that cheap and awful being in a miniature form factor before... 🤔
@@berryreading4809 i am a whiskey drinker myself, so i haven’t looked for mini bottles of ever-clear. Although would be a great choice for non drinking uses. I actually reuse the mini bottles and pour cask strength whiskey that i enjoy, into them. You could easily do that with ever-clear. Over time and use buying a larger bottle and refilling into mini bottles will be cheaper per oz too. Hand sanitizer is typically 60-70%, not sure if 90% would irritate your skin
@@christaylor4086 I'm just thinking of maximizing volume and minimizing weight... I'm not sure that 90% could be watered down to 70% though because after all it is ethanol 🤷♂️ maybe if you kept it shaken while disinfecting? Not a huge issue for me anyway though as I have to drive atleast 45-60 minutes one way to legally buy it, but it's a nice little city with some other good day trip stop off spots/stores... Although the homemade version is quite easy to find without crossing state lines 🤣 *Not that I seek it out, I just frequently either see it or have it offered to me from the "house jar" by older folks or just friendly "trustees" LOL it's almost like a sign of people showing they respect you and your word because they still think it's the early 1900's and you won't tell the Revenue agents 😄 pretty wholesome tradition I guess, plus the people that still make it apparently treat it as more of an art than a business so they prioritize safety instead of profits, because really that's how they'd end up with the Law Enforcement at their shed.
@@llamabahama4654 I agree zip ties are useful and would be a great addition to a go bag. Search 'how to escape zip ties' and you may discover why I have ASP Tri-Folds.
Very good, rolled up on a couple of bad situations, have to be prepared , we are here to help each other like we would want to be helped if in need. Thank you will be starting a bag.
So much of the med stuff you can “tactically acquire” in the service when you take a Combat Lifesaver class. I just gave my father in law a couple of TQs and Israeli dressings for his truck. Excellent video and I love how you say to build it over time and tailor it to meet our needs. Truly professional. Thanks!
For those unable to attend CLS or don't have access to medics, talk to aviation unit aircrew flight equipment folks - they have to replace the survival vest med/survival packs from time to time. These have many of the smaller items Pat mentions.
I really like the mini bottles idea, definitely multipurpose. 👍🏼 In my bag I have much of the same gear, minus the hunter tacs and mini bottles. Good work brother, keep it up.
This is probably the essential video when it comes to a Get Home Bag. I love the fact you put this in a time frame of hours and not days. You give great everyday occurrences that when things happen. They go sideways quickly. Damn good Pat!! Thank you🤙
2 for you 1 for me!!! LOL best quote yet!!! THANK YOU for sharing with us!! i noticed that you put more into medical then most guys!!! i think you have a greater chance of using medical then you do of anything else!!!
The "signal kit" regards marking the back sides of trees as you walk in so these can be seen on the way out. That alone MANY THANKS .....obvious once you pointed it out to me, again great vid cheers.
"Bro I gotta set that thing before I move you, bottoms up" fucking classic. Lines like that carry a much different tone from an absolute top of the heap human like Pat.
Hey Pat, great vid, I may have missed it, but couple pair of latex or rubber gloves for handling bloody wounds. Be safe and thanks for all you did and continue to do!!
You are the man PatMac. Only humble suggestion I would make is one of your doubled up waters would be in a metal container that you could use in a fire to boil water even though you have a filter on one.
Nice ideas there. Im in a bit of a "different " situation with my vehicle..Truck driver,my house is my 🚚. I keep 2 packs a 3 day assault pack and a Zombie communist apocalypse pack,I have the set to connect to each other. The idea behind it all is if I have to bail immediately 3 day pack,if I have the time then both of them. Also carry by full gear set up with me plus Rifle and sidearm. My 3 day I focused more on Ammo and medical rather then clothing and food,its the US can find clothing and food everywhere. I do also have a dedicated trauma bag,mostly set up for bleeder and shock treatment( auto accidents).
"I never want to relinquish an opportunity to be Batman." Dude, that quote is going to stick!
Agree. But at least Pat Mac has those skills. Not sure everyone is qualified to be Batman.
@@Mtlk77 even young Bruce Wayne wasn't qualified. Just having the gear won't do anything if you don't take the time to learn the skills.
Haaa! I agree.
@@rjg02005 you guys don't get it, just BE batman
This Guy's Quotes are DOPE
"Hey man , 2 for you and 1 for me " = priceless 😁 G.Speight
I’m nowhere close to the top tier of Warrior that this man is; but I always walk away knowing more about keeping my fellow American safe and myself.
With an approach like yours, one day in the future, peeps w look toward you for wisdom too.💯
Never thought about extra long tourniquets for people suffering from over- nutrition. Great information!!!
hahah over-nutrition
It's a commitment but some of us are tactically hypercaloric
That tubular nylon or 550 cord will make a tourniquet for physically-overabundant people!
I also recommend that people think about carrying alternate tourniquets and they don't all have to be TCCC approved as Mountain Man Medical stated in the video not too long ago about tourniquets TCCC is a standardized rating for military-grade tourniquets and I'm assuming law enforcement as well throughout the great tourniquets that are not TCCC rated that civilians can use the work just fine.

I never wanted to fall out of a deer stand before but the thought of Pat coming out of the woods with liquor for us to drink is rad
“Two for you, one for me!” Classic! I love it! 🤘🏻
"Bottoms up. Two for you and one for me.". When I make my pack with the mini bottles I will go by the philosophy that "four is one and two is none".

The "signal kit" regards marking the back sides of trees as you walk in so these can be seen on the way out. That alone MANY THANKS .....obvious once you pointed it out to me, again great vid cheers.
Going to work on my go back this weekend, thanks Mac
"Bro I gotta set that thing before I move you, bottoms up" fucking classic. Lines like that carry a much different tone from an absolute top of the heap human like Pat.
“What are you?!”
Pat Mac: “I’m Batman” in his growly voice.
So one of your videos,you mentioned a flouresant shirt (like road workers wear) but I don't recall WHY please refresh my memory ,thanks Pat !!
Appreciate you sharing this brotha. "2 for you 1 for me bottoms up" 😂
Hey Pat, great vid, I may have missed it, but couple pair of latex or rubber gloves for handling bloody wounds. Be safe and thanks for all you did and continue to do!!
Good man Pat is. We salute you!
You are the man PatMac. Only humble suggestion I would make is one of your doubled up waters would be in a metal container that you could use in a fire to boil water even though you have a filter on one.
Good tips, thanks Pat.
One of my favorite things for a fire kit is the super small thing of WD-40. Learned that from my uncle. Always have one in hunting pack and go bag
Thank you for taking the time to provide such priceless information!
Bottoms Up! 2 for you, one for me!!
Thanks, Pat
Bro, two for you, one for me! I literally laughed out load on that.
2 for you 1 for me - I love it!
Great video. Great ideas! Thanks, Pat
Nice ideas there.
Im in a bit of a "different " situation with my vehicle..Truck driver,my house is my 🚚.
I keep 2 packs a 3 day assault pack and a Zombie communist apocalypse pack,I have the set to connect to each other.
The idea behind it all is if I have to bail immediately 3 day pack,if I have the time then both of them.
Also carry by full gear set up with me plus Rifle and sidearm.
My 3 day I focused more on Ammo and medical rather then clothing and food,its the US can find clothing and food everywhere.
I do also have a dedicated trauma bag,mostly set up for bleeder and shock treatment( auto accidents).
Two for you one for me. Lol. That was great.
Love that bag. I sold my 5.11 MOAB sling bag. Perfect use for it.
Smart bag especially spare glasses easily overlooked if you excuse the pun.
Outstanding
