The Practical Woodsman
Education • Travel • Preparedness
The Practical Woodsman is a way to share love of the wilderness, as well as my observations, thinking, and approach to what folks today are calling 'bushcraft' and 'survival'. The focus is on what is practical, as well as pointing out certain things being demonstrated by 'bushcrafters' today that are not practical at all.

Practical Woodsman Podcast

Wow, I’ll tell you folks what… I was seriously considering pulling the plug on the Audio-Version of Practical Woodsman podcast because the last time I took a gander at the ratings, they were low, and the downloads weren’t great. (Plus, I have to pay a platform monthly to publish them.) But I ran over to check out the current rating, and you folks have really come through. You’ve all popped it up to a 4.0, which is about where I need it to be to maintain my enthusiasm. So thank you one and all who have contributed to this raised score - I really, really appreciate it, and I’ll keep coming up with practical stuff to talk about every couple of weeks involving love of the woods for the foreseeable future.
