My upbringing deep in the Appalachian woods gave me intimacy and love for the backcountry. The Practical Woodsman is a way for me to share that love with you, as well as my observations, thinking, and approach to what folks today are calling ’bushcraft’ and ’survival’. While I enjoy viewing other channels related to this sort of thing, much of it is impractical for any real scenario in the wilderness, and therefore pointless. The Practical Woodsman’s focus is on what is practical, as well as pointing out certain things being demonstrated by ’bushcrafters’ today that are not practical at all.
