Thanks for all your interest and responses to the questionnaire so far, I really appreciate it. For those who are interested I will post updates in this thread as to how my research is progressing. Thanks again Geoff

Over the last few years I have undertaken academic research on the topic of bushcraft as part of studies towards a Certificate in Education and a Masters Degree in Outdoor Education. I intend to continue this research over the next few years as I carry out independent research, complete my...

Sorry nitrambur, It's me that's missing something, I cut the article short it was originally going to include a section on snares as well. That is the third category of legal traps; snares. sorry Geoff

I am collecting peoples opinions on environmental education, I'm convinced of the value of bushcraft as an activity to support environmental education and wondered if anyone would be willing to provide a bushcrafters opinion, there is a survey available at this link...

Thanks for the kind comments about my article everyone, I'm glad it was useful/interesting. I will be running a workshop on legal trapping at the Bushcraft Show if any of you are interested http://shop.bushcraftmagazine.com/products/legal-trapping-with-geoffrey-guy cheers Geoff

Hi All, The cost of sending deer skins by post seems to be prohibitively expensive, I wasn't expecting it to be so much. I will look into other options of sending them, courier etc.. but will perhaps try and attend the bushmoot next year and then anyone who expresses an interest in the skins...

Samon, I have no hidden agenda or ulterior motive, I'm not offering anything. I am merely interested in the opinions of others and whether or not there is a general feeling that training would be required or desired. I'm sure there are many more people who are interested in using guns than have...

That must have been a really interesting month, quite a challenge as well even with a firearm. Do you mind if I ask what kind of size the area you were bushcrafting in was? and whether you subsisted entirely off foraged and shot food or whether you packed food in as well?

If by the 'firearm enthusiast' you mean me; no I'm not American I'm just trying to find out what peoples opinions are of the use of firearms in bushcraft and whether there is an interest among bushcrafters for firearms training.

After feedback and some suggestions I have created an updated poll to take into account some other options which may make this poll more inclusive. Thanks for your input so far, it's really interesting to read what other opinions are of the various aspects of bushcraft and what is/should be...

I will be starting my Chinese Water Deer Cull next Friday They might not be big but they have FANGS!! I always end up with more skins than I have time to deal with myself, the skins are not anywhere as big as a red or fallow but if you are willing to pay the postage and packing you can...

I spent two years living in Sweden and managed to move around and see quite a few places mostly Northerly, I spent six months in Luleå, six in Örnsköldsvik and the rest of my time split between Stockholm, Västerås and Linköpping. A really beautiful country and I can provide some pictures My...
