I love your videos. Finally a channel without all the garbage that gets straight to the point!
Great job Dave. Simple and to the point. Loved it.
THX!! funny thing, I have been a backpacker for life (35 years now) and where I go I always have had topo maps, I never learned how to use a compass correctly. thanks for this set of video's because I REALLY need this knowledge for future possibility's!!!!!
Thanks for the time you put in to help everyone out Dave...a practical, cohesive, systematic series of videos on the use of a compass is much needed...youtube has a ton of vids on knots, shelters, gear, clothing, shoes etc but surprising there is a not really much content as far as how to use one of the most important tools of all, the compass...thanks again Dave your efforts are much appreciated.
its not a dog house, its a shed. 'put red fred in the shed' is how we taught our boy scouts. great vid Dave
Keep it simple. Works every time, everywhere.
thanks Dave, a great starting point video for compass skills. ive been enjoying your vids for quite some time now but have yet to comment. looking forward to compass skills continued...
I've been looking for a video series on this for years. Thank You.
i can see that this is a video ill be watching many times..... taking many notes as well. thanks sooooo much sir !!
finally an explanation that was easy to understand...some do and tho's that can't teach you seem to be able to do both ….thx
Thanks, Dave. It's always good to rehash the basics on occasion. Keep up the good work!!
Great, simply explained video. Thank you!
Thanks for making that so simple to understand, sir!
I assume we will get a tutorial on magnetic North vs. grid/map North? Most people never talk about declination and that can really get people confused. Great video Dave, short, accurate, to the point!
Thanks for the video Dave! A nice, concise explanation :)
Thanks, Dave!
Finally!!! An explanation in layman s terms... Thx Professor
This was gold. Thanks.
Your videos are awesome thanks for doing what you do!
I learned more in the last 4 min. than I ever did growing up and going on those "camps" like in 5th and 6th grade...
Thank you for the compass reading lesson.
Thanks for the video, very helpful.
Thanks,
You are correct.
You need to understand how to use a good compass to get your bearings or what's the point of having one..
Too many people get lost in out back Australia and die because they don't bring one with them or understand how to use one..!!!!
Gold prospector.
Cheers Tony.👍⛏🇦🇺
Great information. Thank you
Very cool. Just yesterday my brother asked me if I knew how to use a compass properly. Unfortunately, I had to say no. Now, at least I have a clue.
Thanks Dave
Thanks I can't wait to hear more about compasses.
Very well explained 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great video mate. Helped me out. I've never had to use a compass before and I have just popped my cherry with one. So thanks for the lesson.

may I ask if you or Anyone knows how to remove the bubble in a suunto or silva? Thanks!
👍👍👍
works for me, youth or not, thanks.
CAN I DERIVE DECLINATION BY ORIENNTING THE MAP TO A KNOWN TARGET SUCH AS A WATER TOWER?
For when you want to be in the doghouse.
Magnetic declination?
Has no bearing really without a map
Has no bearing....lol thanks for reply
There's probably alcohol in the water as I have never seen my compass freeze in the winter...
ArneTW Most likely not alcohol but more likely a water and glycol solution.
I don't know why, but those baseplate style compasses are so confusing to me. I prefer the military style where heading numbers rotate with the needle, so much simpler to me.
Baseplate compasses are a little easier to use with a map for people who aren't very experienced. That's why the Boy Scouts teach orienteering with them. A few degrees of error isn't a big deal when you're walking toward a destination, because you're going to stop and take a new bearing now and then.
Military compasses are better when you need an accurate azimuth bearing without actually walking to the destination. Because you're using the compass itself to sight a target, you can then give that bearing to someone else, like artillery fire control. Boy Scouts are rarely required to call an artillery strike.
"Boy Scouts are rarely required to call an artillery strike."
I want that merit badge.
I wanted to build a model of an atomic bomb for my Atomic Energy merit badge, but the Scoutmaster wouldn't let me.
