Take Care
Thanks for the shout out buddy. Wishing you well for the advanced. You know how to get a hold of me.
My pleasure man. I’m nervous yet excited.
Rewatching this one, just recently signed up for the intermediate course in April. Gotta start preparing, thanks bro!
If I was 20 years younger I would love to take on the course you are doing. But at 64 and retired i have challenged myself and my grandson to complete journeys down 5 different rivers. We did 300 miles on the Wabash River in June 2018. July 12 we are launching on a 400 miler on the Cumberland. The next 3 years will see us on the Tennessee (600), Ohio (1000) and then we will complete things by going from Minneapolis to Mobile which will have us on the Mississippi (1600). Congrats on completing your course and am always looking for your next video.
That sounds like a good time!
Just came over from endurance room. Glad I made the trip!
Nicely done, brother! The mapping was definitely a challenge. I totally went off mark, mixed up my coordinates on the last day of advanced. We had been pushing it and was basically running on fumes at that point. Glad to hear you pushed through and got it done. Thanks for mention. All the best at Advanced. Looking forward to hearing about it.
Thanks again my friend. Im nervous yet excited. I know it’s going to be an even greater challenge than the intermediate class but I’ll be ready
Pooter Stomper you got it. keep fresh on what you did for scout, maybe do some primitive traps triggers. the land nav is more intense, both the distance and the mapping. for losing weight while maintaining/building strength, carnivore diet is great. steak and eggs, maybe some green vegetables if you want em. Definitely think being lighter will help with the course. I was rucking a couple times a week leading up to it.
Big Ups, congrats on your patch but that story scared me be safe. I’ll take it when I get older👌👍👍✌️
Congrats Pooter. We learn more while in distress than when things go well. Well done!
Yes we do..thanks Joe
Great videos. My favorite channel to watch. Keep up the great material you keep teaching.
GREAT. WAY TO GO ! Pooter, !👍👍👍👍
Much appreciated Daryl!
Congratulations 🎉 Pooter you definitely deserve it brother ✊🏾💪🏾👍🏾
Thanks Brian! Hope you’re doing well my friend
I'll be taking a Coalcracker class soon. From what I hear it's much less physically intense than the Canterbury classes.
I was concerned when you said there is so much hiking, but 8 miles per day isn't that bad for me. I did 18 mile days 6 days per week for about 4 months, with my best being 22 and my lowest being 9. I was also overweight. Started at 240 and got down to 215. I'm back up to 230. Got 3 months or so before my class and plan to drop 15 to 20 lbs.
I've been doing bushcraft fun for about 8 years and feel fairly proficient, but admit I'm a total idiot when it comes to knots. They just don't click for me. I can practice a knot daily for weeks, then not use it for a month and it's gone. I can't tie shoes from the front. If I tie my son's shoes it has to be from behind. It shouldn't make a difference but it does. I've never succeeded in tying a neck tie.
It's going to make things difficult but I'll make it work.
Congratulations dude. This is my first time watching your video and I'm proud of you for not quitting. I have been watching Dave C. and the rest for about two years and practice my skills and get my dirt time in my backyard. I don't think I'll be able to go to any of the courses but I will try to keep up with the videos of every body. Good luck at the advanced course.
Keep at it my friend!
Congratulations pooter!!! Way to go and stick it out!!
Thanks David!
Gorgeous place!
Congrats. Great job. Happy you got your patch. 👍
Thanks again Sandra
This is seriously inspirational. Now I really want to go take classes at the Pathfinder School!
It’s a great challenge but you will have a great time
Your looking amazing ...your so much more professional about your bushcrafting...your doing a great job...
Thanks 😊
Congratulations. Great job. Proud of you😊
Thank you Glenda that means a lot to me!
Good job buddy, looking forward to having you back.
Thank you sir. Can’t wait to come back
Congratulations Pooter!
Thanks buddy
Buying my instructor bundle this week!!!!!
Congrats on the patch... keep up the great work👍👊
Thank you tank 🤟🏻
Way to go pooter.. congrats... I did my fair share of hiking and land navigation. I know how hard it can be.. Former Jungle Operations training battalion in FT Sherman, Panama and as we say "No Obstacle To Difficult".. keep it up super dad!!!
Thanks brother and appreciate you tuning in during the livestream
Dude its awesome you can be honest with us but even more than that you can be honest with yourself
Great this video camping 🏕 👍👍👍👍
Great review...scary story..going have to find a good paul mapping video..hopefully you can do one
Congratulations again on passing the intermediate course. Good luck at the advanced class! Great advice about taking care of your feet, plenty of opportunities for wet feet at the school. I found that out personally! Looking forward to seeing the primitive skills videos, keep up the great work!
Thank you! Will do! I Bet you learned a ton at the edible and medicinal plant class.
@@TonyPowers_Dirtbound
Sure did. I had a great time!
Enjoyed the video! Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure brother . Thank you for watching
Great job! You are becoming a mean lean bushcraft machine. You will be my instructor there one day. I am 54 now Retired Military and a little beat up . Got to get body and mind in shape. Let's here about your training and diet. Thank you for your efforts and taking us along with you.
You’ll get there just start out slow like I did. 18 more pounds until I’m down to my pre trucker weight 💪🏻
Congratulation you went through it all you got it done you did you . You got what you wanted to do in your way you have been slimming down every video I see you’re losing weight left and right keep it up my friend keep it up God bless you
Thanks Tom I’ve been working hard. 18 more pounds to go until I get back to my pre truck driver weight
Congrats! I have collected everything I need (too much) to get in the woods. Hopefully life will slow down enough to actually get out there. Until then I’ve got you. Keep on keepin’ on.
Thank you Rich. Better to have too much than not enough!
I knew you had it and I know you’ll rock the advanced as well. Love the channel. Keep it up.
Thanks brother. Hope you’re doing well
I am. In a better spot now. I’ll likely be in the November Intermediate.
That’s awesome my friend. No doubt you’ll get that patch
Congratulations Pooter! All your hard work has gotten you here. You'll succeed on all the classes and get the Pathfinder Instructor certificate. Way to go! 😊👍
Thanks again. It’s a long process but I’ll get there 🙏
Way to go. Can’t wait to see the nav videos. I did my first tarp shelter overnighter last night. Thanks for inspiration brother.
That is awesome! how did it go?
Pooter Stomper not to bad. Didn’t bring in any unwanted bed partners. However I was quite worried seein how I scared up a copperhead on the way in. I was sure nervous about it but once I fell asleep it was all Zs from there.
Thats awesome bro. Fortunately for me there aint a whole lot of wildlife in Indiana that can kill you!
Pooter Stomper I was well protected. Had my pew pew under my pillow. You still hittin up Branson every week?
Yep gotta be up at 3 am to head that way tomorrow
Great job on the fire, and excellent story brother😁✊🔥... you FORGOT about the other two channels tagged in the 1 🏒🔥😂 gotta help out the UNDERDOG!(=
Sorry about that brother. I swear every time I edit a video I realize I forgot to talk about like 2 or 3 things.lol my memory is horrible
@@TonyPowers_Dirtbound no worries bro totally understand just busting chops, always enjoy your videos keep it coming buddy!!(=
Congratulations on earning your patch! I appreciate your thoughtfulness and honesty about your experience too. I look forward to watching more of your growth!
Thank you Peter..I can't wait for the advanced class
Once again congratulations for the patch! Your videos are always intersting- and so was this one too. Starting the fire was magical and once again I learned something...we don`t have cedar here, but white birch bark will work fine. It dries fast and you can scrap it into feathery flakes. All the info you gave was just awesome! You can truely be proud of your self-- you were through a difficult, scary experience! I`m looking forward you nav videos--will be very intersting. Did you do orienteering with maps and compasses? Was that how you were to find your goals? Your tip of taking care of your feet is a very important one! Also when you are in the hot weather you should be sipping water all the time, otherwise you`ll be in trouble. Wishing you all the best in training for the advanced class! You can do it for sure!!! Stay safe and be blessed!
Yep we orient our compass and maps. It was kinda confusing at first but had it down by the end
Keep them coming buddy 💪💯 I enjoyed
Thank you Frank 🙏
I wish I was in good enough shape to try the Pathfinder School classes but those days have come and gone.
Lots of the things that you and some of the others do I just don't do anymore. For instance, a bow drill fire. I haven't done that in 7 or 8 years. Too much work !
Great job pooter👍🏻 them heat injuries ain’t no joke. I’m surprised you were able to pull through and keep going💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 I’ve had 2 and now I carry way too much water and a filter every time I go out😂 I’m not sure if it’s true but I heard if you do have a heat injury you are more susceptible to them in the future. Congratulations again man 😀😀😀🎉🎉🎉
I don't do well in the heat. I really couldn't play many outside sports as a child because I would pass out a lot. just gotta keep pushing through! Thanks again for the support man
I've been hit by heat exhaustion twice, it's no fun and it's true that after having it you are more susceptible to it and have to be careful.
Good job! Congrats.
Thanks buddy
Congratulations!
Remember, lessons are learned through experience!
Congrats to you and hard work and a never quit mindset can and will get you through a lot!!!! Stay humble and stay honest with yourself and always be a student.
Tony, I watched this twice now. Each time I get the fizz when you get that fire started. Thanks for putting the work in brother. It’s appreciated. 🔥🫡
Way to go on the patch brother! A fake TH-camr might have just said "I passed" and that's it, so it was cool to hear you staying humble and telling us you fell out but then recovered. Keep on keepin' on! It does seem you've lost some weight since I started watching a few months ago so that extra few pounds shouldn't be too hard.
Yes sir I’m down about 30 lbs or so! Want to lose 20 more
congratulation you can do anything you put your mind to.
Appreciate that James
Nice job man. I always use a feather-stick tinder bundle when it's wet out. And I never have trouble with fire like that
That is an insane story dude. I don't think I could go through that and pass
Thanks man.. it was tough but I was not going home without that patch! 💪🏻
Keep giving it 100%
Definitely
Hey man, new subscriber. Congrats on the intermediate course. Quick question, what knife are you using in the video?
Being at the scout course must have been a real treat i sure wish one day ill make it down there man i really want to experience that. Sounds challenging and a real test of will and determination. Glad to hear you made it threw tho. Good for you guys man great work.
Thanks brother 🙏..now time to get ready for the advanced class
@@TonyPowers_Dirtbound best of luck to you ill be waiting for a follow up video afterwards to hear of you success.
Love the vid pooter
Great job ! Enjoy this channel imemsly ....
Glad you enjoy it! thanks harry
It was a awesome vid
thanks. Corporals Corner reference
Congrats on passing buddy!
Thank you man!
Good Job Man!
Thanks brother can’t wait for the next one
glad they let you all take a second crack at the nav session
Me too! Glad I didn’t waste the second chance
That's awesome, congrats! Regarding ruck prep for the class - would you recommend working on increasing speed as well as load?
Absolutely.. the nav course is more difficult with not much time to complete it. Plus you will be carrying materials you must collect all the way back to base camp. So get use to going faster over long distances with more weight all while trying staying on course! Hope this helps
FEETS move you forward. Heat stroke is no joke. Congratulations!
I did notice in this video you were very confident, your pack however looked a little concerned.
Good vid
Congrats brother..
Thank you Harvey
Good job 👍🏕😏
Thanks!
Congratulations pooter!! Your a beast lol :)
lol Thanks Grant!
💜 great job so proud of you 💜
😛
New subscriber, thanks for sharing your journey and congratulations! What were your go to resources in your navigation studies and what did you bring for axe/hatchet?
We were given maps and taught how to plan a route and how to stay on course. I brought the Counsel Tools woodcraft axe
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I was the 420th like.
Nice!
what type of knife do you use/where to get it? also, I really want to take these pathfinder courses. Been Busch crafting, foraging, and hunting my entire life but this seems like the real deal from all that I've read. Where do I go to look into it/cost? Thanks a lot!
You can get the knives I use here 👇

What was your pack weight for the class? Was it pretty light because you’re only carrying minimum kit?
I’d say it was about 20 lbs or so
👍👍👍😃✌️
I want to go to the class haven’t been to the basic but feel I know all that stuff. I have backpacked all over and do Bushcraft. Would you be scared to do the intermediate one first? I live in Washington so I can’t fly out there too many times
It’s always a good idea to take the basic first as it’s the foundation for everything else you will learn in later classes. However I have seen people take the intermediate without the basic and pass. All up to you
@@TonyPowers_Dirtbound hey I really like that one sheath you have with the rivets up and down it do you know the specifics on that one I seen you wear. Also I really liked that one video that you and your cousin jasper did. I really liked the bow stance around the campfire that was good stuff I don’t usually see. Cool. I really liked that video man. Keep em up
bS not bow stance.
Man you have lost weight take care!
Still got some baby fat on me but that will be gone soon!
Hey man, new subscriber. Congrats on the intermediate course. Quick question, what knife are you using in the video?
Hey man, new subscriber. Congrats on the intermediate course. Quick question, what knife are you using in the video?
Camp and trail from selfrelianceoutfitters.com
Just checked it out on Self Reliance Outfitters. Very functional looking blade and a good price. I'm taking the basic course on the 23th - 25th of October, and I'm pretty stoked. I plan on taking the intermediate in November and advanced courses as well.
Thanks for the response.
The Average Woodsman awesome I’ll be at the basic class as a helper so I’ll see you there. Just finished the advanced class a couple weeks ago
@@TonyPowers_Dirtbound That's awesome! I watched your video on the advanced class and it made me want to take it even more. LOL! I'm coming from Florida, so the weather change will be welcomed.
Dress warm!
