  • Dave, I hate to tell you but i don't think that 30 days is enough.... We need more vids... lol

  • I just have a quick question.

    what bow do you recomend for a first timer.

    the will bee used to hunt smal and big animals.

    And keep up the good work hoping for more episodes soon :D

  • Thats for restocking the store! I'd been watching for a while and now everything was there I needed. Thanks!

  • Comment removed

  • Can't wait to see the videos on the SAN or the yurt videos to.

  • ah i miss the beard but still love the yurt series. you're the only guy actually doing it dave, hands down the best survival instructor to be found online

  • SAN is great cant wait to see more full length adventures!

  • WOAH I was trying to figure out what was wrong, the beard is missing haha! Glad you're back Dave, can't wait for more vids and I'm keeping an eye out for your SAN production!

  • What happened to the BEARD??? Love the Yurt series Dave. Keep it up!

  • I cant find the other channel you said at the end.

  • @rockinglock i myself am youtube channel search inclined can you.... oh you did lol... i was gonna say throw up a link in the description well there ya go glock

  • Dave and Gang.....you are like Gods and you rock. I like everything thing yous guys do and have since day one. I tell everyone to watch. Anything Dave C is great from Shark-week to Dual Survival, but this is the best and it is RAW and real. Keep it up! Dave, thank your wife and family for supporting you and letting you teach us the Pathfinder way!!! Looking forward to the new channel too. Happy squirrel eating guys!

  • Dave...you have a new fan, young Deegan (my son) was born Dec 21st! Cheers and happy holidays guys!!! :)

  • its winter time, why on earth did you hack off the beard?!!?

  • Have you posted videos on things that can be shot out of the twelve guage when you run out of ammo? I thought I saw something that effect but that might have been the muzzle loader.

  • hey dave could you do an edc video? i know its sort of overrated but chris said you had an edc video but you took it down...just interested in what you carry everyday and what you have on your edc carabiner

  • Sorry I hit post before I was done! But anyway I took an old satellite dish cut a hole in it sled it on and with a little chimney caulk it was weather tight.

  • Hay Dave I couldn't help to notice in a few yerts back that you have a big gapping hole in the roof? Me and a friend of mine just put one up, with a stove in the center quite like your set up. Well o didn't like all that air space between the stove pipe and the top of the yert

  • wat happened to the beard ... cant wait for the next videos

  • i would like to see you interviews in the yurt. invite some of the other instructors on ,and show one skill or trick they use in the field . kind of like late night for woodsmen and preppers . just an idea ..

  • I was curious what your background was,were you a soldier or just raised by wolves......Love your videos,thanks alot....

  • I am waiting for the series of the surveyor!!! The second oldest profession besides prostitution! Those were real men! They were like the forward recon of their day. Field notes were impecable and online. Also check out west points digitized notes... Amazing detail.

  • Fantastic Dave -

  • WooHoo more yurt video's! Love this series Dave! Also can't wait for the next SAN video. I've been watching for a long time and must say that your video's are the best on youtube and the best when it comes to this type of stuff..

    Keep up the good work man.

  • Dave I was watching one of your old videos on smoked rabbit.you spoke briefly about your own spice's .would you be willing to shear what you put in your spice's

  • @wildernessoutfitters hey dave im going onmy first winter campshould i put a tarp underneth my tent thx

  • Nice hat

    

  • Dave: What would you recommend for a good cover/shelter making object for my e-pack in east texas? too warm for wool or a space blanket, but it rains often.. i was thinking a pancho or tarp-esque piece but wanted another opinion

    you rock dave! cant wait for the next video!

  • @kodythompson113 If you don't mind my opinion I live in the Texas Hill Country and I figure a re-usable space blanket would be just right unless you want a bigger size. In the summer you can set it up with the shiny side up and it should work pretty well at reflecting the sun off of you and in the winter shiny side down would keep you nice and toasty.

  • welcome back brother youtube aint been the same since you went on holiday. glad to see ya back in the saddle

  • just subscribed thanks Dave

  • What is the other gun in the back ground

  • I like Dave's new show better than that dual survival.The new program gets more involved and no dam stupid commercials.

  • This is not the real Dave. The bearded Dave was real. He was abductee by aliens. Notice how he didn't do more videos. This alien is still acclimatizing. Call Mulder and Scully or Ray Mears to bring the bearded Dave back.

  • As a guy who ditched his goatee years ago I think it must have felt pretty good to shave off most of that beard.

    Granted it was cool but time marches on.

  • I like the beard better. You can grow a mean beard!

  • Not only do I like this series Dave but I like the goat better than the beard... a much cleaner, younger look!

  • @cyclist01222

    no way is the goat better...that manbeard was bad-ass Bomber... you gotta grow it back man .

  • This is the BEST series I have seen on youtube! Keep it up Dave!!

  • Dave, no need to apologise for taking some family time during the most Holy of holidays - sure I missed seeing anything but I'm happy that you have taken a break. Off to check out SAN channel!

  • Dave how about some sling bow hunting vids from the yurt

  • like your videos !

    liebe grüsse aus deutschland !

  • Hi Dave, ...great with your survivaladventurenet channel, looking forward to the new videos! Have a great time, Sepp

  • my dad shaved his beard when he saw this

  • Cool

  • BRING BACK THE BEARD! BRING BACK THE BEARD!  BRING BACK THE BEARD..!

  • Just glad to hear theres more Yurt vid's on the way. Thanks Dave

  • Definitely love it. I live in a more permanent yurt so I love to see the smaller primitive adaptation as well. Keep'm come'n.

  • I like to have a yurt, I will be homeless in January.

  • you must have been a naughty boy that santa took your beard away.what happend?????????????????

  • It would have been cool to show how to remove your facial hair as they would 200 years ago...

  • Hell Yeah Dave....love the vids and the series! One question... My boy and I were trying to find some of your OLDER videos but they dont look up. You used to have a bunch on the versa shelter, from way back...but I couldnt locate them. I know they were earlier in your you tube days, but are they on here? Over time, I know you have changed your recommendations on some items..like now an axe over the saw which you recommended early on. Removing old data to stay current maybe? Keep it up in 2012!

  • @rbljackson I didn't realize he actually changed that cutting tool recommendation. I've noticed it's hard to keep track of things like that on his channel, but maybe that's because I haven't watched everything yet. I wonder where the archery videos went (did Dave just finish putting the info up so he stopped?) and the vicegrips from the common man kit, and stuff like that.

  • God bless you Dave! Hope you and te family had a wonderful Christmas. Love'n the the Yurt life and I've been subscrided to the channel, will be great to see!

  • Thumbs up if you want the beard back.

  • Have a Wonderful New Year Sir!

  • we love what you do because your legit man, the real deal and that comes through to us watching whether it's tv (which is great) or on the net you 100% the real thing man. and thanks for doing them and your service to our country

  • glad your back... some of the other guys channels that i subscribe to.... suck!

  • Do you ever do the self reliance in Kentucky?

  • who cares about the beard, I'm just glad he finally quit using the "Just for Men".

  • lookin clean Dave. haha

  • Sir, I'd like start by saying thank you for all the free knowledge. I'm a army Sgt. at Ft. Carson Colorado I've been doing this for 12yrs and wish that the army had a program like yours for us. Something that could be a train the trainer program. Do u have any plans to do any class out this way or be in this area for any other event is so I'd really like to know. This high country would be great for your school. I am starting to put some money up so I can attend a class 2012 or 13. I also just

  • I didnt say only men can enjoy these video's, but rather stated that one get's addicted to these types of video's "IF" your into this subject matter. And im quite sure it's mostly men who are watching. Not to say there are not some females watching, just more of a guy thing.

  • dave i just got an eastwing long handled camp ax and it seems shar and feels great...what do you think of them? and will it hold up?

  • Thank goodness your back. I had nothing to do at work for a couple days without yurt vids.

  • Dave gotta say the beard really added character to this series. I'll check out your other channel!

  • Dave just saw your dual survivor where you cut yourself with cody's knife and cauterize your wound with gunpowder. That was a little bipolar of you man. but liking this yurt series. keep up the helpful info. hope you have a good new years.

  • Hope you had a nice Christmas Dave.. I'm looking forward to seeing the SAN video.

    I've subbed quit a while ago. =D

  • Has Dual Survivor been canceled?

  • Thank you Dave for the all the videos and all the great yurt journals.

  • Hey Dave, love the Yurt journal...it's like watching you live as a modern day pioneer. I'd love to see some more wood stove cooking, maybe a "Little Yurt on the Prarie" cooking show. No appliances, just ingenuity and some basic supplies. Keep up the good work, and thank Iris for letting us steal you away to bring us the "enter-train-ment" we yearn for.

    Thanks,

    Brandon Hunt

  • RIP. Beard.

  • Comment removed

  • Do not leave us like that. It is so scary. :(

  • wooo back i was getting worried

  • Dave, I have totally enjoyed the Yurt series! I look forward to the videos every day. Good training videos and information for all of us out here. Keep up the good work!

  • Have you been loosing weight in the Yurt or does no beard make you look thin?

  • Three days and no yurt, I was having withdrawls...Thanks for the great videos Dave and a Happy New Year to you and your family!

  • Where did the beard go!!!? Great vids man.

  • were's Dave a claus? :(

    BTW how do you shave in field?

  • Dave I notice you have 2 shotguns behind you. Is the one on the right the .410 that you shot the .45colt round out of into the hay bale?

  • Welcome back Dave! Miss your beard tho:(

  • dave what really happened in those few days away? DID THEY TAKE BEARD FROM YOU???!!!! we will find who ever did this

  • @TrinityRewind Bet he ran into some Amish in rebellion. I read something in the news about them stealing beards.

  • You've got me thinking about putting up my own yurt in the back yard! This series is great. So much can be learned by your videos. Thank you so much for what you do. Keep living the dream and my son and I will see you in April at the Basics Class, a Christmas present from my wife. We can't wait!

  • thank God the Yurt is back, I was going into withdrawal! Looking forward to more longhunter series.

  • I wait till the wife and son are both in bed, then I come on here for my "escape", looking for the next Yurt video. I guess this is how the ladies feel when they get addicted to those Soap Opera's. Only difference, is this stuff is real, interesting, and could save your life. So, keep'em coming Dave, your my connection to my roots and my man-hood sanity. Writing this from within my "man cave", in SW Ohio.

  • @stephensgate1 News flash! I may not be a lady but I sure am female and I always watch these videos. What makes you think it is solely a male thing?

  • thank god, an dave the yurt series is back ..

  • keep on keepin on bro

  • like the series? I love it! I even washed some socks in ashes. Please keep the videos coming.

  • What makes this 1000% better than a TLC/Discovery production is you have a REAL pro deciding what is relevant and informative and not some producer who THINKS he knows but doesn't. This is why someday youtube/on demand programming that anyone can create will largely take the place of TV/cable. "Hollywood" has an agenda and isn't nearly as smart as they think they are. Plus there is sooooo much real talent out there. This channel ROCKS!

  • oh my god thank you dave damn i needed a yurt fix

  • Fantastic these yurt vids are visual Crack, LOL, I love the learning expieriance Dave, And I will be looking up those survivaladventurenet videos. Thanks again Dave God Bless brother.

  • have you tried shooting an arrow from a 12gauge? i think it's doable with a 410, not sure about a 12gauage.

  • Hurt and longhunter my favorite series by far

  • a non Hollywood glamorized reality style teaching/training videos? I'm all for that!

  • yay welcome back.i'll subscribe to your other channel.

  • Im dieing to know what feed bag that is behind you on your right???? Is it Layena from Purina???

  • Love this series, but would like to see some trapping videos like the longhunters did. Beaver trapping isn't necessary, and I have trapped literally hundreds anyways, but I would like to see some cubby sets, even if it just for squirrels, and i would like to see a coon skin cap made and worn by you.

  • The beard is gone.......

  • Ummm... what happend to the beard santa? 8)

  • Where'd you get that Fedora? o.O Is it a crusher?

  • can you show your arm where you cut yourself open and burned it closed?

  • How did you repurpose your beard??? Stuffing for a pillow? Bristles for a toothbrush or paintbrush? Material for tying flies?

    ...seriously though thank you for doing the videos, learning so much!

  • RIP Dave's Beard.

  • Heck yes man, keep this series comin' !

  • wow man, what happened you cut your beard down

  • Yeah, my wife made me shave for my Christmas photos too. Glad to see some Yurt updates, been going through withdrawals like everyone else. Any progress on the waterproofing mix you guys were working on?

  • wheres the BEARD?

  • Welcome back, brother. I was hurtin' for the yurt. Keep up the good work.

  • I was actually just about to email you on the yurt series so good timing I am watching dual survival and SAN now. This stuff is motivating I have already camped and cooked over an open flame more in the past two weeks than the whole last two months. God Bless and happy holidays!

  • Really!!! I just picked up a single shot 12 gauge and craving more videos!

  • i thought something was wrong with my subscribtion so glad to get my yurt fix anyway i hope you dont mind me asking but are you doing a 3rd season dual survivor yall have a blessed night god bless

  • I have a request, if feasible. Would you be willing to show the assembly/disassembly of the yurt? I would like to get an idea of what I would be getting into if I were to buy one for a deer camp. I am torn between one of those, or just buying a fish house trailer.

  • AWW MAN... you shaved...LOL

  • Great to see the update. Anxious to see the other Survival Adventure Network work you've been doing- keep up the great work!

  • Glad to see you back "on the air"! Hate to see that you have shaved but I'm sure that was a Christmas Present for Iris. Like many I love your videos. On many nights I watch your videos instead of TV. I can't wait to see the new SAN video like many other fans!

  • Finally! Lol! This is getting bad! My wife says i'm addicted to youtube cause every time a new yurt vid comes out I bust out my "journal of the yurt" chant! Lol! Been lovin' this series, keep'em coming Dave! Can't wait to see the SAN video as well!

  • Glad more Yurt is coming our way. Miss the beard, Dave. Will there be anymore of the 21st century longhunter vids?

  • Damn... for the first time in my life I was about to go out looking for drugs because my YURT withdrawls were so bad. OMG !! I've got a YURT MONKEY on my back !

  • Love the series, knew you were taking a break for the holiday. Happy New Year Dave! May your success grow like that beard of yours.

  • Dave, you are the man. I'm enjoying my subscription here and I love that you are visibly (but not ostentatiously) a man of God. Keep the videos coming on all the channels.

  • I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU SHAVED THE BEARD!!!!!!! I'M 40 AND CAN'T GROW ONE FOR NUTHIN. HOW COULD YOU DAVE!!!?

  • Where is your BEARD!!!!!!!

  • @103outdoors I know, what happened?

  • @bugandbulky He probbaly had to shave for family photos. :)

  • I met you at a gun show last year, total surprise! Bought your book there and I have been watching your vids and learning/expanding my bushcraft knowledge. I have property in S.E. Ohio and there I practice and learn the things I am seeing. You have helped me expand my knowledge and opened my mind to lot of new ideas. Love the single shot 12!! Keep the vids comin!!

  • I got caught trafficing Yurt videos across state lines. Im now in Federal Prison wishing I didnt have my addiction.

  • A PVC hex "yurt" would infact just be a tent. Honestly this shelter is more like the Mongolian Ger than a traditional nomadic yurt... The name signifies the materials and design. Not speaking for Dave here but if you find a durable bullet proof alternative then more power to you...

  • My kind of Real Survival, Looking Foward

  • @tblbaby ,,,, thanks for the info ,,, always thought an unasked question was a stupid one so no hard feelins 

  • The beard is gone! nooooooooooooooooo

  • love it keep it coming love wacthing it over and over again

  • You shaved!! :-O

    

  • Welcome back!

  • I was checking my Email for the last couple of days like 15 times a day if there were any new videos from the yourt. Glad your back and I will the series on a daily basis again!

    You should let your beard grow again!!

  • Finally you're putting something up on the other channel. Been subscribed to it for an eon and nothing ever goes up on it.

  • is that a new england pardner single shot in the back

  • Yurt is back..... Life has meaning again.

  • and thanks for all the videos i cant wait to get home and watch them

  • and having the rafters be 6ft also but the problem im getting is figureing out how to connect the top to the walls. but i figured that the yurt your staying in is abotu 2000 bucks and a common man like me could make a version or a yurt with just pvc some fittings and about 4 walmart 12x12 tarps. and it would be about a 5th of the weight of your yurt and pack much smaller it wouldnt be a tough as your yurt but something that anyone could build and set up in a few hours.

  • hey dave ive been kicking around the idea of making a lightweight alternative to the wooden yurt and have been thinking about using 3/4 or 1in pvc and making in a more of a hex. shape with 6ft. tall walls and each length of wall being 6ft.

  • Were is your beard?

  • definitely looking forward to more videos on survival adventure and this channel. i watch all your videos and use some of the ideas you guys come up with. hope to see many more videos soon! ^_^

  • Dave, glad to see you back with a Yurt update, I was worried about ye brother. I was having yurt withdrawals.. lol

  • thanks;)

    regards

    SA

  • Sweet Glad to hear from you Dave. I pray God has blessed you and your family over the holidays and that he continues to bless you into the new year.  Thank you so much for your videos. I placed an order at the pathfinder school on 12/24 and recieved it all on 12/28. Everything is just what I was expecting. Thanks a lot and praise the Lord for guys like you who helps us learn about living in nature.

  • you should have filmed you shavein your beard off......

  • Great news Dave. I know I've been going through withdrawals myself, as have countless others. Lots of entertainment value, learning and sharing-for the common man. An unbeatable combination for success. Awesome stuff.

  • Awesome Dave! Thanks

  • Thanks for the update Dave, It's Appreciated.

    Just wondered if you had to pack up and relocate and then re-establish camp, how long would that take? (Less Travel Time) ...perhaps an idea for another edition of the Journal of the Yurt

  • i know a old man who dose not take showers !!!!! hes a good camper in my book . he even sleeps on a sleeping bag but saise he hates to be in nature wet and cold , he likes his coffee machine and his microwave too much

  • You are doing the country a great service by doing all of these videos and shows on survival. Keep up the great work!!

  • been enjoying your vids for a couple yrs now just watched a re run on discovery of dual survivor slash and burn, WOW that burn had to of hurt. when I get back on my feet im hoping to do your pathfinder phases. and purchase a few items off your site.

  • Dave just want to say you rock man!. I watch dual Survival this channel and your other channel as well you never fail to amaze me in the way you deliver your knowledge.You and Ray Mears are my Hero's man

  • Ive been searching for shady dudes in back alleys trying to buy some Yurt vids. Help! I think I might have a problem...

  • @peteypab81

    Now THAT is FUNNY.

    But it's sad 'cause it's true.

    Me too. Yurt rehab is in our future.

  • i miss the beard lol

  • Thanks Dave, just subbed to your other channel, looks good. Keep it up, learning a lot from you. Many thanks for all the info and time you give, it's very much appreciated :-)
