mad1 Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 Hi all, Just been wandering about u tube as you do. Iv noticed there is quite a lot of the bushcraft meets/weekends on there. Just wondered if anyone on here is into that or has been on any.Could be a good laugh or excuse to go out with the 4x4 for a meet. Looks like the old catton shoot but without the shooting.. Stay safe M1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatchap Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Wilderness Gathering is supposed to be quite the weekend, well 4 days to be exact. A few of my Knife customers go, its in Wiltshire somewhere, Bit on the expensive side so I have heard especially the courses. I beleive they do catch and cook, but I doubt you will be allowed to run around sporting an .17 HMR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockhopper Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 The alternative bushcraft show is getting more popular (it's in Edale,Derbyshire) as the main ones are becoming a bit of a rip-off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatchap Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Do enjoy the bushcraft video's on Youtube, especially the ones by Kent Survival. Does some very good cooking but its the product placement I like best, he has for instance a sleeping bag and he has to say something along the lines of "Just unrolling the The GX54-21 THERMOTEC 4000." Love his truck as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't put yourself down mel, not quite up to the ladies ability but I have seen a couple of your efforts. That is a very generous offer of access to your wood and post this virus problem I still have to take you up on the invite you made to come up and have a look see.

Fatcatsplat Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 The Bushcraft Show is excellent - We took our Scouts 3 years ago - If you want access to Ray Mears, Lofty Wiseman, Ed Stafford, Paul Kirtley, Dave Canterbury, tons of workshops (albeit some pre-booked at additional fees), lots of good people (as well as a few easy to spot prepper nut nuts) and kit stalls for every conceivable activity, this is the one. Is it commercial - Yes, but only as commercial as you want it to be - If you want to spend you can, but if you don't you don't need to.

NatureBoy Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 Lofty Wiseman top SAS instructor of many years and literally wrote the book on it all! Still carried and used by many. His vids on youtube are great. Old skool! Proper down to earth no bull. Loads of real info and instruction with no ads or sales pitch. Learnt a lot from them. Like Jack Hargreaves on steroids. 😉 NB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
