I have a bow, and have gone hunting, and practiced archery before. Never made a kill though. (Hunting was with a bow btw)
I also have worked on the flint and steel fire starting, but haven't gotten a true fire. I've gotten a flame to burn for a few minus, but did not get it to go into a full fire. They make it look so easy on those survival shows. In reality when you learn, there's a good chance you sit on your knees for an hours, and you run out of flint before you get a fire. I also practice tying knots occasionally, and read up on, but do not practice building different kinds of shelters. I also work on identifying different species of plants and trees correctly in the wild.

I wish I could take just one hour of what I experience out in nature, wrap it in a box, put a bow on it, and start handing out to people Nature has its own religion; gospel from the land I know I was born and I know that I'll die; The in between is mine." |

Theorist,
I tried to look at your profile to see how old you are, but there was nothing to go on there. In 11 days, I turn 62, so it is a safe bet that you, like most on this site are younger than me. that being said, don't sell yourself short, you have time to learn these things, and I am sure that you will. I have lived my life at a hundred and ten percent, and will continue to do so, for whatever years I have left, it's just the way that I am put together. Take it one day at a time, you aren't assured of the next heartbeat. Live every moment like it is your last, and you will do more living in your time here than most people would in THREE lifetimes.
