Default WoodsMaster Video Colection - 18 Survival Videos
The WOODSMASTER© Video Series

http://survival.instantestore.net/



So... What's a Woodsmaster?
When I was a kid growing up and playing in the woods I met an old guy who
went by the name "McCaleb". Mac as I came to call him, talked about the old
time woodsmen and many of the tricks they had to deal with wilderness living.
He called these folks "Woodsmasters" because they had special skills that
ade them masters of the woods, each and every one of them had the essential
skills to make it on the land. That is the purpose behind this video series... to
teach the skills needed to live in the wilds.... like a woodsmaster.

This series presents the special skills that can make your time in the
wilderness more enjoyable, safer and make you far more confident. The
videos are hosted by Ron Hood who will show you many interesting and
important wilderness living and survival skills. The presentation of these skills
is enhanced with clear explanation, great photography and many of the special
"little tricks" that few but the most experienced Woodsmaster will ever know.

You will learn that you don't need electricity, power tools or boat loads of money
to make beautiful, functional and durable knives or other metal pieces. You will see

arms to hammer hot steel. It's all in the technique's.

also learn some great recipes! You'll drool over the Pot Roast steaming with
browned potatoes and thick gravy, you'll groan when you see how easy it is to cook
a great breakfast with a Dutch, your arteries will thicken when you see her make
DONUTS and then you'll moan when she serves up her famous rat stew... uhhh errr?
Well, why not?

Ever heard about SOLAR cooking? You'll see the three basic types of solar cookers

The info on these DVD are pretty good.

Although Ron Hood does a great job in presenting the info, some shots are just fudged for the camera.

In the "Solo" DVD of the series I had to laugh.

Ron took his wife, two other guys, a dog, and a 1/2 ton of equipment on his "solo".

He then proceeded to poison himself with false morrels.

Over all the info is good, and presented well.

They have a website, store and forum as well, if most of you dont know already.

Most of the info is on wilderness camping/surviving, although Ron his now doing urban survival dvd's now.

Well worth the look if you're interested.

My only concern: shouldn't this post be in advertising? Or pay to post it here?
