Good morning all, Happy birthday Derek. Mr Buckin Billy Ray, I have been a firefighter for 19 plus years and a chief for the past 7 years this is the easiest explanation and tutorial on knot tying I have seen. Thank you very much.👍🚒
For a stupidly simple and mindless way to tie the bowline, tie a basic slip knot on the working end (leave it loose) and pass the tail through the loop. As you tighten the knot, pull the loop through the knot and allow the tail to form a bight and pass through the knot with the loop. BOOM, instant bowline. No remembering which rope goes on top, which way to wrap it, or where a rabbit goes anymore. Try it and you will be amazed how it requires zero thought to tie. Awesome video, Buckin'! You are a great teacher.
Before I get started on my comment, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEREK. Keep on keepin' on as a Soldier of Kindness! Billy Ray, I'm glad you figured out that we want to see YOU doing the knots. I spent a wee bit of time in the US Navy, and knew how to tie all four of those knots, but loved watching you ties them! You have a unique way of doing and explaining things. It is always cheerful and full of encouragement. Your joyful personality is infectious, and I thank you for it! God bless you, Billy Ray. continue the good fight for love and kindness!
This is one of the best videos on the interwebs!!!!!!! You can use knots in soooo many different ways for everyday things!! Everyone should know this!!!
Hey Buckin' watching your videos finally gave me the kick in the butt to work in tree work. Ended up getting my first job just the other day just by calling and showing up and proving myself. Thanks much for the inspiration.
Thanks to Buckin' there's not a hand tool around my house that doesn't have a new handle... Even my old clam shovel has a new handle. I must've spent $300.00 on handles this Winter... Thanks Buckin!
Good knots Billy. But aside from tree work they will come into use for many other things in life. I learned these in the Coast Guard boot camp, and also used them and many others in my 30 years as a firefighter. Knots are something that a lot of people don't know or don't understand, but they are WELL WORTH the effort to learn them. In the fire department in Portland, Oregon we used a variation of the double bowline to create a "Life Knot". A victims legs would go into the double loops and thre rest was tied into a special knot at the chest that came under the arms pits from behind and a person could be lowered from an elevated position, like a roof, down to the ground safely. Knots are invaluable in just every day life. Good video buddy. Jim
Hey mate. As an old tugboat Captain I can tell you that on a bowline the rabbit comes up out of the hole runs around the tree and goes back down the hole. That's how we did them at sea and in training.
Hi Derek , happy birthday 🎊🎁🎂 !!! Hi Buckin, loved the knot class. Going to teach them to my grandson, he’ll love it. Have a great day everyone, love wins. Peace out ✌️
Thanks for the video, I know 2 knots and they are for fishing and boating.. being a die hard bush man I wish I took the time to show myself more knots and it’s always been my weak point lol😂 thanks for showing me a couple more to add to the list I’m gonna practice! Awesome video buckin! Take care and be kind
Today, this book is one of the greatest symbol and reference of Portugal. Whell, i think that´s a good story to tell here in this day. Great channel again, a lot to learn with you!!!
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith it´s good that the new generations can learning something from people like you insted of just be in front of computers, consoles or screwing around and not knowing what real life is! I hope i´m wrong, but i don´t see a future from the majority of these kids. this world is becoming faster and faster and more evolved and i think that "in the end", the evolution is what´s gonna end with the real meaning of life
Hey Buckin! Love the way you show how to do knots! I never get them right usually but I tried them and they friggin worked after watching this!! 😯 You are the greatest! Keep on bucking and being the awesome fellow you are!!
Thanks Buckin' for this video. I certainly need to know the important knots as I feel they're necessary, never know when one will come in handy. Geez, Buckin' you'll hit 200k soon! Wowsa!!! Be safe during these times, dangerous times it is, it's a great opportunity to be kind when we away from home. This too shall pass, one day at a time.
Great knot video!! Ive used these for years in many different fields. The bowline is about the most versatile knot there is. Thanks for putting the infp out there!!
Hi mr. Billy!!! Today is the day of my country. The day of Luís de Camões, the guy who wrote "Os Lusíadas" . Back in the time, to save the book he swim with just one hand while he hold the book with the other hand in the air just to save it and to share with the people.
Nice tutorial. Maybe you should consider doing one with a Cow Hitch, Bowline in a Bight, Becket Bends, and Butterfly Knot. Personally speaking of course I don't use the clove hitch unless I back it up with a Bowline. I really enjoy your videos.
I’m from Newfoundland and my family are all fisherman , we use this knot daily . It’s hilarious how my old man and the older fellas pronounce it , they say it like bowlin instead of “ bowline “
You look healthy and happy BB. Broadcasting goodness. Digging the bird on the wall! Yeah, I'm catching up. How'd you like my little rhyme...about... wOZ's Wand, tempered in molten lead, bird struck upon its head.... it's on the Wassa BlackBird hang vids
Hey bucking billy ray on my wife’s account I’m a climber and dad of4 kids under 8 yrs and I would be your biggest Australian fan, I’m self taught climber and have just started a business and watched every video you have
Awesome!! Job keep it up broke it down simply I would keep it up maybe a video on proper climbing gear and tree spikes I would honestly love to be your student could learn a lot from you with a positive attitude about it not to many people where I am from don't have the attitude like yourself.
I love it Like you said the guys trying to learn, slow it down a little.. Keep up the good work.. I'd say stellar work honestly at this point in your career! Cheers billy
Thank you, Buckin ‼️ I'm about to practice on the knots while watching your video 🤠 I'm new to the channel and loving it! Keep up the great work 👌 Regards from Sweden 🇸🇪
I like to remember the line hitch variations as just extra wraps on a double half(clove hitch) if that makes sense to anyone. Used single side line hitches to pull quite a bit of drill line and such. I dont think he explained the reason the running bowling is up first through hole instead of down. Up and out instead down and in. The reason is that the tail end is facing down and you don't force against the tail pushing it through the knot tightening the choke down.
Hey Buckin, can you show how to do a Yosemite Boline? Also, this may be a dumb question, but if you are going to ascend the tree without gaffs or ascenders, would taking your life line and doing a Yosemite Boline in your d-ring followed by a Blake's hitch work?
Love the knot tying billy, one of the most overlooked parts of most trades. But yet most important

Happy birthday Derrick! Again after finishing the video. Great knot video. Can’t wait to use them in the woods
Man o man can you jam! Ain't talk in bout a log jam either.
HEY gotta like that one !!! cheers from Derrick in Spain
Love the running bow line!😁
Found it very informative, it was good to see someone explain them in slow motion, well done sir.
Knots are a Great thing to know. They can Save your Life depending on the Situation. 👍
Another great video, its crazy to say this but I hope to cut a tree with ya someday. Your a great person love your personality.
Happy Birthday, Derek! Have a great day !!!
I’m from Newfoundland and my family are all fisherman , we use this knot daily . It’s hilarious how my old man and the older fellas pronounce it , they say it like bowlin instead of “ bowline “
I love it, slow down and teach someone, not speed up and impress/confuse.
That's it. If ppl are smart they can find the simplicity and share it.
Nice teaching 👍 cleared up my confusion from other guys I watch.
Happy Birthday Derek 🎂🎉🎈
thx matt

Interesting way of tying a bowline... a bit upside down - but it works... 😁
welcome new sub's and happy birthday Derek hope you had a really great birthday!! and great job buckin good video loved it.

Happy birthday Derek
I use bowline from the tow hitch and running bowline to the tree 👍
Happy 11th Derek 🌲⚒️🔥
If I am skidding a single log the timber hitch with a half hitch is a good fast easy knot to learn.
You would do well at a Boy Scout meeting. (demonstration). very nice,
thank you
Buckin, do you ever “whip” the ends of your working ropes to keep the ends from getting loose and frazzled. Good knot video. Thanks
I whip mine.
Hey Buckin, can you show how to do a Yosemite Boline? Also, this may be a dumb question, but if you are going to ascend the tree without gaffs or ascenders, would taking your life line and doing a Yosemite Boline in your d-ring followed by a Blake's hitch work?
Billy, you blow a mean harp !!!

Hey buckin what kind of ascender and descender you like best,you and Hogan repell fast
