Bowdrill As Taught By Stalking Wolf

[road1rash]

it not as easy as it looks, but when it works there is just something magical about it. The first time i made fire with the bow drill was in my living room. used it to start the fireplace.  just like you, my friend from TBJs school taught me every thing he learned. best thing that ever happened to me. watch and learn.

awesome good job, survival skills like these are critical for us humans on this particular planet

[EvergreenBushcraft]

If Stalking Wolf was teaching this. you would probably be in the middle of the Pine Bairns... wearing buckskin clothing. just a thought :P

But it looks like you've got that Bowdrill down pretty well!

I took the opportunity to teach my cousin wherever I could. This was Georgia but we are both from the Jersey Shore. Thank you for watching and commenting. I don't get many with this video.

search & read the Red Sky Prophecy of Stalking Wolf by Tom Brown, it's very interesting

[neighbouroftheforest]

Nice primitive skills instruction... from a backyard in suburbia.

[persev88]

Because only the injuns new how to make fire. How about the time one of Toms top instructors pulled out a lighter?

[ffilchtaeh]

With the prices they charge to teach the skills of survival nobody should see a lighter from an instructor!

[persev88]

Gotta respect their skills but they aren't dumb either. I saw a park ranger that lives at Chehaw state park in Albany Georgia consistently make fire with a hand drill with only 3-4 passes down the drill! The array of tools and weapons he had made by hand were astounding. He was very critical of the Tracker school saying they ripped people off charging them thousands of dollars and then putting them up in an open barn.

i live near albany and was at the cultural festival in Nov. which instructor was it?

[persev88]

Don't know his name, I saw him at the Perry Buckarama back in the mid 90's

[neighbouroftheforest]

@estaban215 not sure

[violoncellomaster]

I would love to talk to him or anyone who has taken Toms courses...i know a guy- a good freind actually- that spent a week with Tom. paid 5000.00 for a week private lessons...he wont say much about what went on...

[stumptacular]

well if a guy ripped you off for 5k would you wanna talk about it?

haha jk my best friend been through many levels of toms school... he is amazing in the woods... can track decent, but he knows every plant or tree i can point out intimately... identify wood by a piece of bark alone. absolutely amazing...

if i had the money to spend that kinda cheese... i would c tom brown, his books alone taught me several ways to open the senses and find things. seriously, life amazes me.

[neighbouroftheforest]

@stumptacular same here!

[hawkdreaming]

i attended tracker school for a number of years and teach on my land in nova scotia, canada. what would you like to know?

[Malaachi]

My gram lives in East Port Maine, I'll shoild be seeing her soon...I'll wave to you ;)

[Malaachi]

hee hee "I should"

[hawkdreaming]

i was wondering who that was ! sorry for the delay. good luck

[stumptacular]

well, there are people who master the physical skills.tom brown has gone beyond that.

he has taught thousands of people to listen to their inner voice and miracles do happen. repeatable miracles. and i never even went to his damn school. just read the books and worked on things. meditation, by any other name if it gets you "there" can lead you to lost articles, people, lessons, discovery, animals, places where you need to be. besides, alot of people would never get the chance 2 sleep in a barn

[AcousticRain1]

I would teach survival skills free of charge but who wants to learn them?

[violoncellomaster]

AcousticRain- what is your skill level??...id love to have a free teacher...

[AcousticRain1]

well you can see my other youtube which is stevevox1 and I got a fire by friction thing on there but that is my kinda family type site, cheers

[netalius]

this is how we identify with who we are and where we come from as a product of the earth, these skills are our birthright and its a shame they are nearly lost to average man

[Dominasta]

Skills that can save your life. Thank you Tom and thank you Stalking wolf.

[C3Candy]

Yup..I love the bowdrill.

[stumptacular]

you gotta love seeing grown men fascinated by something so "primitive" and on the ground playing in dirt... bowdrills reall are magical
