Join me for a Weekend in the Woods with Ray Mears, Bushcraft Author, Educator, Presenter and Legend at The Bushcraft Show Autumn Event.
Ray has always been a huge inspiration to me, with my discovery of him starting my bushcraft journey back in 2000. He was kind enough to sign a scrapbook I made all those years ago which is featured at the end of the video.
I attend multiple lectures and demonstrations with Ray & enjoy an evening banquet in a stunning location, Stanford Hall.
A huge thanks to the bushcraft show for this opportunity & to @RayMearsWoodloreLtd1983 for being such an inspiration.
Don't hesitate to visit Rays site for courses, kit & his fantastic blog - www.raymears.com

I miss this place, and what a privilege you had to spend a few days learning from Master Ray, congratulations brother! See you in May 2025! I miss this place so much!
Thank you! I also miss it & can't wait to be back, looking forward to seeing you there. 🙏🏻🔥
this is a very wholesome video! this is why i like ray & co. because they show that bushcraft has a soul. it's not just skills and gear but passion, joy and connecting with nature and ancestors. i wish i could meet ray and my other idols.
Hopefully you'll have a chance to meet him! This event is wonderful for that. Thank you for watching, I agree that Ray brings a whole different perspective of bushcraft to life.
Awesome mate, what a great event and experience. Ray is such a legend!
Thanks Tom, it was such an incredible time. Look forward to chatting all about it on the Wodesman with you!
That was lovely Liam! Thank you for sharing that with us! Happy for you spending some time with big man Ray again! Great memories for you and Craig too!! 💚
Thanks for watching :) , it was a great time away with Craig & everyone else we met. A very insightful weekend for everyone I think!
Lofty Wiseman and Mr Mears where my first books i read ... awesome stuff
The best combo!!
Looked like such a brilliant weekend, I’d love to go one day! Thanks for taking us with you! 🥰
Definitely was amazing , it's an well worth it. Thank you for watching 😊 x
My wife bought me a day walking with Ray Mears as a birthday present a good few years ago, the day was awesome, he made a whistle/flute at one of the stops whilst delivering a presentation, played it and then gave it to a young lad as we moved on to the next area. On arrival back at the car park I met up with my wife who was there to pick me up, the event was over and Ray was over to one side with his instructors making a brew. I had spoken about Les Hiddens (Bush Tucker Man) to Ray on the way round, Ray said they were friends and relayed a funny story, I had mentioned my wife was Australian, when she went over he was charming, talked about Australia for the next twenty minutes, even offered her a brew. Nice genuine guy 👍
That's such a great story and another testimony to his kind nature beyond the camera. I appreciate you sharing that & also for watching. Really glad this evoked such a lovely memory for you too!
Ray Mears is my favorite bush-crafters of all time. Over his life, he has studied all over the world with so many indigenous peoples to obtain first hand knowledge for what he has taught others for so many years as well. Plus, he is a no nonsense get to it kind of person without all the fluff you get with so many celebrities in the bush-craft community, but he still has that British sense of humor. Thanks for sharing your visit there with us all. Being an American, I am a bit disappointed more Americans interested in bush-craft don’t know much about Ray unlike Bear Grylls!😊
Thanks for watching! I couldn't agrre more with you, hopefully he gains some more exposure in the States too. His knowledge is vast!
That looks great. I grew up watching Ray Mears' shows and always really enjoyed his presence, so it's good to know that he's a positive interaction off-camera too.
100%, if not better! Thanks for watching & glad you enjoyed 🙏🏻
Dude oh wow !!! This is awesome
Almost like a dream come true ✌🏼🤘🏻💪🏼
It was honestly fantastic, a really worthwhile event. Thanks for watching mate
Looked like an amazing weekend buddy thanks for taking us along. Cheers dude. ⛺️🔥
Thanks Paul! Really appreciate it, hope you are well 🙏🏻🔥
You've made my mind up my friend. I'll be there next year. Great video 👍
You'll absolutely love it! Appreciate you watching, thank you :)
Thanks for the mention Liam. Hope you enjoyed the beers. It was great to chat with you and Craig, especially as I’ve been following you both on socials for what feels like years. Very much looking forward to catching up again and maybe joining you on one of your community meets. Stay safe brother 🫡
Thank you again for the beers & I'm glad you've the content & hope to share a fire with you in the future 🔥💪
I really enjoyed this Liam . Always nice to see uncle Ray out in his element .
Cheers for sharing
You're most welcome! Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it!
You have captured some great footage there Liam, It was a fabulous weekend, I am currently reading my signed book(My Outdoor Life), I almost don't want to finish, as I want Ray to keep some mystery when I see him again 😂😊 love your antler ring mate! It was a great idea to retain the texture on the top half.
Thanks Emily! Really glad you enjoyed it, what a great book to be reflecting on the weekend with too.
It was an epic weekend Liam, great to spend time with you and Craig and all of the other like-minded people and share stories, laughs and knowledge 🙏🏻🔥
100%! It was an absolute pleasure to meet you & share this weekend together. Appreciate you watching 🙏🏻❤️
If you had a list of 10 things that epitomize the few true pinnacles of British greatness, Ray Mears would be on that list.
I couldn't agree more! Thank you for watching 🙏🏻
imagine a ray mears and david attenborough special
Awesome stuff! Loved watching ray mears as a kid, got me hooked on Bushcraft when i was in cubs/scouts. His books are 2nd to none can read them all day 👍
Likewise! He's an incredibly author, presenter and bushcrafter. Appreciate you watching! 🙏🏻🔥
same! man is a legend. glad i swerved the bear grills bus. lol
Aup buddy ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT that really enjoyed it. Absolute salt of the earth the people in the bushcraft community i no i might sound like a big girl saying this but when you showed your photo album of you from a young age i got a bit emotional lol . Keep up the fantastic work take care buddy 👍
Thanks Darren, you're absolutely correct. Everyone I met was so lovely! I was very similar when he signed it, definitely brought back some great memories! Thanks for watching 🔥🙏🏻
Thanks Liam. It was lovely to see your historical scrap book memories of you and Ray. Pure class 👏
Thank you! I was stoked he signed it too :)
Big pat on the back for capturing this lovely event, Great to see the foundations being looked at.
Sat here in the woods practicing hand drill and feather sticks now relaxing in my bivvy watching these before my beauty sleep see you soon dude!
A big thanks mate, it was a trip to go down on the memory book and some amazing reinforcement of skills by the man himself. Appreciate you watching & hope you had a lovely camp mate 🔥
Looks like it was an amazing weekend. Great video Liam. 👍🏻
Thank you!
Ray is a very down to earth cordial mild mannered man with a likable personality, I met him and Rachel in the Ashdown forest back in 93, they were out walking there dog and I was sat by the river having a brew, they came over and we chatted for about 10-15 minutes.
What a fantastic memory! He's a very humble & sharing man. Appreciate you watching 🙏🏻
That was really nice to watch and we particularly liked the pics at the end. We've been lucky to meet Ray a few times and although they say never meet your heroes, Ray's not like that, in really life he's just as humble as he is on tv. Dude I'm really sorry I've not given you a call, I've been working away most weeks recently, it's been days and also nights so I've been a bit crap with social stuff. Hope all's well with you both though?
Ray's as humble as it comes, especially kind with sharing his knowledge in depth. I hope you are well mate, don't stress about being busy! That's the best news. Stay safe mate & catch up soon. 🙏🏻
Super cool bro looks like you had a great time really like that ring definitely going to give that a go 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks so much mate! It's definitely a favourite ring now 🙏🏻🔥
Awesome Liam, lovely insight into your weekend and one that you could see you thoroughly enjoyed.
Big happy birthday to Ellie 🌟🌟🌟
Fantastic as always to watch
Cheers fella
All the best Johnny
🤩👊🌟
Thanks so much! It was an incredible weekend and made so much better by the like minded company. Very much like the community camps we're blessed to share. Appreciate you mate
great vid again, interesting to see that ray covered different things for each group. Sounds like he just freestyles it. When you're swollen with that much knowledge it must be the way to keep it from getting too repetitive 😅
Thanks so much! It's definitely great to know that you had a different but similar time. He's definitely got some knowledge packed in there 🙏🏻
Firstly, how amazing to get to meet Ray!
Secondly, I had no idea this weekend even existed.
Thirdly, my sister lives in Lutterworth (I shal be having words) and im so jealous!
Thank you for sharing!
It was honestly incredible, such a fantastic experience and highly recommended.
Definitely have words, maybe you can get there next year 💪
Appreciate you watching, Happy New Year!
@PrimalNomad Happy New Year to you too! I've subscribed so I'll keep watching 😁
@TheNatsuguri massively appreciated! Hope you enjoy 🔥
Top class 👏👏👏💯🙏
Thanks so much! 🙏🏻🔥
Looked like a great weekend Liam. Very well filmed. I meet Ray after a talk in North Berwick and I do believe it was the first time I've been proper star struck. So much so I never got my photo with him 🥲
Thank you! I was almost in the same position and thankfully remembered to ask for a pic before leaving! Appreciate you watching 🙏🏻🔥
Liked and subscribed.👍🏾😉🇬🇧
awesome video mate. Really liked the pics at the end 👍
I'm glad, it was so nice to have him sign it too. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻🔥
Well done.
Thanks! It was fantastic
Thank ot Liam

Most welcome! 💪🔥
If you don't bleed learning bow drill, if you haven't fired a spindle across the room seventeen times , if you haven't questioned every piece of wood .. you have missed the greatest journey of them all .
Thanks for the interesting film. Lovely visuals .
Very wise & true words! I appreciate you watching & glad you enjoyed. Thank you
I had a great weekend i can see myself in the back ground of your video making a spoon lol, i wish i could have stayed for the book signing but had to go home for a family emergency. Hopefully i can go again next year to complete the weekend!
I hope the spoon went well and also that the emergency wasnt too serious and was resolved! Thanks for watching, hopefully you also get to finish the weekend off next year like you said, the vip bushcraft show tickets have a similar experience with Ray I believe.
Well colour me jealous, it looked an awesome weekend 👏
It was incredible mate 🙏🏻🔥 thanks for watching
🎞️📸 nice !

Ray is king, who the feck is elvis lol, nobody more knowledgeable in worldwide bushcraft than ray, worth every penny 👍
Haha absolutely! He's a really knowledgeable and very sharing, appreciate you watching 🙏🏻🔥
East anglian bushcraft 💪🏼💪🏼🤘🏻✌🏼
You know haha!
@@PrimalNomad 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😎
👍🤘
🔥🙏🏻 Thanks for watching!
Ray is a legend with great skills.unfortually this I don't like from him is you have to pay a lot of money if you want course with him.
He is but to me he's worth every penny & the price is a reflection of his ability to cover so much ground with ease. This event also gives you great quality for money as it's fully catered which is a bonus! Thanks for watching :)
@PrimalNomad Agree with you brother
I hope you manage to meet him sometime soon in the future :) 🙏🏻❤️
@@PrimalNomad Thank you brother
Ray Mears 🙂👍🏻
The one and only! Thanks for watching 🙏🏻❤️
