I have heard many praises of carbon felt. I really want to try it. I used perlite because I already had a lot for our gardening. Carbon felt is on my list and I love the fact that I can cut it to shape and if I drop it I can just pick up one item to put back in my tin. Living in "BUGTUSSEL", there is nowhere close to me that sells it. I might have to check Amazon. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, I really appreciate it!

😄😆😅👍You Nailed It!!!!

Thank You!

I learned about the concentrate by searching for the premixed cans...

Thank You! I try to keep things light when I have the opportunity. I try not to take myself too seriously. I'm just some guy... A little humor goes a long way when things all around us look very grim.

@boonedockery7220 copy all the. By the way did you receive my tarp hack I sent ya

In case you haven't noticed, my videos struggle to rise to the "amateur" level. I forget a lot of stuff when I fumble my way through making videos. I take a heavier shirt with me specifically to protect me from think underbrush and greenbrier. Greenbrier are thick in my neck of the woods and would shred my soft shell. That's why I take the "heavier" shirt. You are quite correct in your thinking. Packing an extra soft shell could do the trick...

@@boonedockery7220 Understandable. Each environment is unique and requires its own plan of action.

Awesome! Thank You! I also appreciate having my trial and error revelations validated! I will look into the silk shirt! When I was into 18th century reenacting I made a shirt with raw silk fabric. It was tuff and actually dried quickly in warm weather and was warm when it was cool. Thanks for the tip and sparking my memory!

@@boonedockery7220- leave it with me, I should be able to get hold another one and send it over. They are made from ex-military parachutes 🪂. I will get hold of this and send it to you. I’ll post when I have it and you can let me know where to send it. I’m Sure you’ll make good use of it 👍

Thank You Brother! God Bless!

😆😅😄👍I'm glad you and your Mrs. enjoy it! If I didn't give you my address before it's P.O. Box 644, McArthur, Ohio 45651 Have a Blessed Day Brother!

😆😅😄 I hope your "Skeeter Net" Was Still There!

Agreed completely Brother!

It's All About The Trying! Sometimes success comes easily, sometimes not at all....

Glad you think so! Thank You!

I painted a SOCOM-16 and an AR Pistol. They turned out pretty well. UA-cam is very anti 2nd Amendment (well 1st Amendment as well) I opted to not post a video about the process. If I won't get any community strikes for it I'll post picks on my community page. I will inquire about that ASAP.

Thank you Brother David! Have a Blessed Day!

I use my goretex in the winter. I love it for use in snowy weather. I am also a big fan of gaiters! As I read your comment, it came to me that wearing softshell pants with the poncho would probably make a great combo. I'll have to try it if we ever get rain again...

Fireforce Gear.

The company is Mont Bell. They no longer make the jacket I have but I'll send a link to the closest one they currently sell. They run small. The one I have is XL and it fits like a large. There are a lot of similar jackets out the at much better prices. www.montbell.us/products/disp.php?cat_id=25147&p_id=2301368&gen_cd=1

@@boonedockery7220 thx.

SOLID!👍

😄😆😅😄😆😅👍

I have to order another batch of them. Once the come in I will post it on my channel. After that send a request with your mailing address to my email address boonedockery1750@gmail.com

@@boonedockery7220 Obrigado pelo retorno. Ficarei no aguardo. Deus o abençoe.

My pleasure! Have a great weekend!

@boonedockery7220 you as well God bless!

The rule of 3's is a simplistic rule of thumb. 3 minutes without oxygen. 3 hours without shelter. 3 days without water. 3 weeks without food. It's a rule of thumb........ In the right conditions, these rules "CAN" be very accurate. I didn't make up the rules, however I, as well as most survival minded people see the usefulness of them. I personally have treated individuals for hypothermia and heat distress. The symptoms became evident fairly quickly. From seeming fine to not good quickly. Had appropriate actions not been taken, it "COULD" have resulted in death. February 16, 1995 4 U.S. Army Ranger Candidates died in a Florida swamp near Eglin AFB of Hypothermia, the Overnight low was 47.5 degrees. Look it up. Once your core body temperature drops by only a couple degrees, the effects are major. It doesn't take long for the body to shut down. Even for extremely fit men in their prime.

Yeah in hot environments shelter/shade and water important in cold environments shelter and warmth in wet cold even more so there are a lot of variables, you covered all this I get it, but I was in a bad situation when I was 15/16 years old a pal and I decided to stay out in winter I had a single skin half shelter, it dropped to around -4c ice on the water was 3 inches thick in the morning we had non thermal clothing thin polyester training pants a thin jacket etc, started developing symptoms of hypothermia like deciding to stay when we could of walked home in around an hour, it was real cold shivering all night, put my feet in my back pack done nothing for warmth at the time it seemed a great idea. Anyway moral of the story as long as you are dry you will survive at a cold temp if we were wet we would of died no doubt about that things like making fire were not on our mind. Also we had no ground insulation it was the cold that made us think the bad ideas etc like stay the night when we could of left so my point is bad decisions can be made when cold so shelter and fire are a priority in a survival situation before things escalate.

In 2013, three Army reservists collapsed during a 16-mile SAS test march. Lance Corporal Craig Roberts and Trooper Edward Maher died during the exercise, whilst Corporal James Dunsby suffered multiple organ failure, as a result of hyperthermia, and died 17 days later. It’s real. Still visit this lads memorial stone near the start of the Fan Dance as when I went through selection in the 90s my fellow candidate suddenly collapsed. I had to pick him up with all his gear and run him up the nearest hill to an evac point - he had a close call that day and did survive but I had a lesson in how real It actually is and I never forgot it.

@@craig2795 so sad and and emphasis the brutality of specialist training and the reality of bad weather god rest their souls.

@@ashab1 Close Call There! I was in a situation in the Smokey Mountains and it stormed hard for about 45 minutes just at sun set. It was in June. The temp dipped into the 40s I was able to keep the fire going under a very large cook pot. Everyone was soaked and shivering. As soon as the rain stopped everyone collected wood and set it to dry as soon as it dried enough the fire got longer. We stripped down to our skivvies which was warmer that the wet clothes and stretched cordage to hang and dry clothes. Had it not been for that fire, we would have been in a very bad situation! I've got several other examples but the point is the elements are never to be taken lightly!

The i.n.c.h. Bag is another BIG Topic! I sincerely believe God is Blessing those of us that are trusting in him as we prepare for the coming "Storm"! I agree whole heartedly! "GOD BLESS you and yours.... GOD BLESS US ALL ..." God Bless You And Yours As Well!!!!

What I was wearing the day I filmed was Undershirt- Addidas (on sale from Meijer 15 years ago) But I also have Under Armor, Smart Wool and Minus33. Underpants- Starter (again I have many different pair from different manufacturers) Socks- Fox River (also use Smart Wool, Minus33, and Point6) Hat- It's either Condor or Helikon-Tex Long sleeve shirt- Habit Pants- Wrangler FLEX WAIST OUTDOOR CARGO PANT I have worn this brand/style for 15 years. I love them and you can buy them at WalMart cheap! Boots- Lowa Zepher Mid. I own the Mid and 8 inch in both Gore-Tex and non Gore-Tex(only for winter as they are warmer, not because they are "waterproof") Gloves- Mechanix The jacket is a US Issue Gen 4 softshell. Poncho, I own several the one on the video was from Helikon-Tex, I also have a USGI, Survival Solutions, Wilderness Innovation. and a U.S. Military Surplus poncho. ALL Ponchos will make you sweat if they are snapped up in warm weather. They are rubberized and do not breath. By unsnapping them and keeping the loose you create ventilation and airflow.

@@boonedockery7220 thank you sir! I value your judgement in purchases. Im on a budget and cant afford lots of trial and error and value your career advice in survival and camping and safety and comfort. Thete are so many choices out there reeling to get your money. It's hard to choose. Appreciate you. G-d bless you and yours.🙏

Thank you very much! I always enjoyed (and felt my purchases were justified) when I saw a UA-camr using the same gear I used. Made me feel my research paid off before purchasing. Have a great weekend!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching and commenting!👍

Yep! That's the "Army Way" of doing things! It's fantastic that you got to use it though! Have you every tried looking for one on eBay? I've found a few rare items, might be worth trying. I was a Cav Scout in the early 80s and was issued the rubberized Heavy Weight "Gumby Suit"😄😆😅 Was good in the winter, so I used my poncho most of the time.

In 1990, at 3rd Ranger Battalion at Ft. Benning, we only had the US Army ECWCS GoreTex jacket and bottoms. Some of the Rangers assigned to the 75th Regiment next door had the light weights for testing. But in typical Army Wisdom, you had them, but don't wear them lol. We spent most of the time in a regular poncho with a woobie if it got colder.

Thank You! The poncho is an amazingly versatile and awesome piece of kit. Definitely a must have item! Have a great weekend!

Thank you! I know most folks don't really consider base "clothing" as shelter, or maybe not even outerwear. I personally feel they are essential and care should be taken in selecting them year round. Have a great weekend!

The PSS is fantastic! I use it and the Osni's from fall to early spring. The Osni is pretty bulky for my summer kits. The Osni has gotten rain on them (and beaded off) but I haven't worn them in direct rain.

I have used my PSS many times in the rain. It is a great poncho. I have had my Osni in the rain once…. Using it as a quilt sleeping in the open. Light rain started and woke me up. I just smiled and pulled the Osni over my head and went back to sleep. It was fine. It was not a downpour though.

That would be great. If I ever won the Mega Millions I'd organize a gathering and issue travel vouchers for folks to attend. There are about 30 folks that comment frequently that I feel like I REALLY know them. You all are the ones that keep me going! I appreciate you!

I second this.

Look at how the men who fought in Vietnam handled such conditions. Similar climate to Florida.

Fantastic Advice!

check out the reply above (or below🤔).

I live in Florida for about 8 years as a kid in the 60s. Visiting as an adult, I couldn't believe how I played outside all the time. I lived in a trailer, so it was often cooler outside. The big thig about the high humidity is that you can never get dry. So, you go into it accepting your always going to be wet, avoid prolonged periods of time in direct sunlight. Hydrate! Hydrate! Hydrate! In the evenings if the temps drop enough, change out into something dry and put the wet clothing back on in the morning. I'd recommend taking Magnesium and Potassium supplements as well. If you don't have any heart health issues, a salt tablet each day will aid against dehydration. I know where I grew up "Durant" very close to Plant City, was heavily wooded at the time (Not Today Though) with multiple levels of vegetation height and variety. As a kid I could crawl under the palmetto pretty fast but trying to get through them today is a task! hisnameisiam808 offered a fantastic suggestion, definitely check it out.

I Deeply Respect And Appreciate Your Insite And Advice Brother! Thank You!

@@boonedockery7220 It's just an idea. By the way, the pole set is currently out of stock at SRO. I signed up for an e-mail when things change.

Wow! That is very cool! Thank you for sharing this!

Oh That Is Just Awful! I had a house fire several years ago and lost half of what I owned. It really surprised me which things I truly missed. Some folks might not think an old canvas pack is that big of a deal.... We know better. It's interesting how we can develop relationships with inanimate items, but we do. I know I have pieces of kit that I could talk for hours about our adventures together. I'm sorry for your lose. Some things are just irreplaceable.

I agree 100%

Oh Dear Lord In Heaven Brother! I am so thankful that you survived both death events AND are home! God is Good! He needs you here a while longer! I just prayed for you and will continue to do so Brother! God Bless You Even More!

This is FANTASTIC advice! Thank You! I learn far more from the comments than I may "teach" on my videos. Thanks again!

@@boonedockery7220 side note I’ve developed a means of properly painting pelican cases that avoids sand/soda blasting (which is inherently the best). Don’t know how much/what else you paint but I’m delighted to share, but don’t want to TLDR.

I've know Dave since he finished shooting the first Dual Survival season. There are a lot of statements/rumors that are attributed to him which are false. I've always tried to ignore most negative information about people because it, in no way has any influence or impact on my life. If it did, I'd try to go to the source and get their side of the story "If" there was any truth to the story in the first place. I can understand that Dave might not be everyone's cup of tea (I'm not either) but the "Real" Dave is a pretty good guy, in MHO.

Awesome! I'm glad they worked out well for you!

I love my ILBE, I noticed Mystery Ranch's prices have really gone up quite a bit over the past several years. The cost of materials and manufacturing has led to the price hikes. Fantastic packs though!

That's strange, I honestly thought I mentioned that in the video..... It may have been in a clip I edited out. I was aware of this and thanks for posting it!

Yep! I talk a lot sometimes. If that's a source of frustration with you, I'd stay away from anything I post. I'm just some old dude with a camera, nothing more.

Thanks for watching and commenting!
