winter update 2

just a video to show a few things i spoke of in winter update 1.

winter update

well its been a while...
im still not sure whether to continue the youtube videos..
what have i been up to?....
well most of my bushcraft has involved hunting techniques used by the san bushman and australian aboriginals....
ive worked on spear throwers,and boomerangs,non returning...
ive been making small detachable arrow heads as the san bushmen do..
ive also have a winter campsite which im currently working on.
i hope to get a camera of my own so i can add more pics etc..
i enjoyed the winter snow we had,staying out in it is no big deal if you have good shelter and a fire..
i opted to buy a good trapper hat,i got fed up with a damp soggy woolly hat,i even attached a fox tail on the back for extra warmth.
i dont know when i will post again...
it depends really when i feel in the mood,i dont want to make this sort of thing a have to do...
hopefully i will post some pics,or even a video or two...

summer

well my computer broke,ive been off line for ages,but now im sitting here with it in bits but working........./
Well what have i been up to..Ive spent alot of the summer tracking and stalking roe deer.i managed to identify families and spent alot of time very near them,i witness bucks chasing bucks out of territories,and was also threatened by a buck early one morning,he was really fired up.good fun..now its all died down and they have all faded...
ive been practicing stalking with a small yew bow,and practiced firing it from sitting kneeling etc,this way seems more realistic to me...ive been foriging,and making acorn coffees,ive also been collecting nettles and willow herb for cordage,something to work on in the winter months...Ive geared down now that the days are shorter,following the way our ancestors showed us...
