Im sure Dave wont see this, but i used to watch these videos from Dave years ago and dreamt about building a home somewhere with lots of trees. i was in a miserable situation and it took about 7 years but i finally found the courage to do it, and last year at this time i was shaving bark of pines and today i live in a tipi spending my days crafting anything within limits of imagination and working for my own heat, and starting to delve into trapping again with a real purpose. I just wanted to say thank you for the inspiration and teachings from the bottom of my heart. And if anyone else feels the same about making a lifestyle change, go for it! it was the best choice i have made in my life
Thanks for a great educational video. For someone like me with no trapping experience this was incredibly well presented and demonstrated. Thanks Dave.
I turned the lower level of the house into a survival course. I wrote “instructor” in permanent marker on the back of my best orange Carhartt “Force” Tshirt.
Really like the vedios learning a lot I took servival training but they didn’t teach a lot of what u do appreciate it the way our world is getting gonna need it. Thanks
FANTASTIC video. Thanks Dave. This type of trigger is so versatile, and the bait stick idea even if not used with bait but just to make it sensitive is excellent especially for fish
Thought about you showing various scenarios with L7 and realized that the trap could be set for fish, and animals on the bank at the same time. Better use of resources…..since snares are hit and miss at best, having to create all the parts why not double your odds of getting something… if you double your odds, you could set up half as many traps if time is a factor…this would save time building parts for these traps.. thanks for sharing
I love working with primitive traps. When I went to a State Trapping Certification Class however, they did nothing but down them as worthless and many times illegal as well. I still enjoy practice with them. Never know when that day comes when I'll need them for real.
Excellant Video as always very clearly explained and done David You are one of the best as far as i am concerned in this field and explanations of everything you do and ty so much for these
Simple design which is perfect for snares. Ive seen some elaborate stuff and as cool as it is, its a pain when setting up multiple snares. You always want multiple snares. The easier the design, the more you can make, the more chances to catch your next meal.
Dave, I've watched you before YT, point being I've followed you and have learned so very much from you. I know u have to keep your secrets for your classes. Totally get that. Just want you to get you yourself to go watch some of your first year or 2 videos. Everything then was poor man's this, poor man's that. Fast forward to today..you are a GOD in the bushcraft community. And know you tailor your videos to the rich man.. I'm glad you are successful and your hardwork is paying off. Except most of America is still poor and even more so now than when u started. Personally, I feel you should share all your knowledge with everyone because of a few reasons. #1, you are a legend, first and foremost. When you are gone your products and services will still always be on top. #2, the USA is no longer a top country, we are falling and alot of people are going to die. You have the platform to help millions and millions of people . The rich will buy what they need, like you, but the 100s of millions of others WILL NEED YOUR KNOWLEDGE TO SURVIVE, NOT THRIVE, SURVIVE, as you know, the world's issues... I won't go there. Just wanted to say thank u for all the knowledge you have shared over the decades. May God Bless US ALL!
Not sure what was rich man about a video show how to make a trap out of stick and a bit of string. I find most the gear they sell is reasonable priced. His books are cheap enough might even be able pick some up second hand.
Watch your channel for sometime you always Go the extra mile thanks On the trapping shows I see them tearing up The ground looks like A freshly plowed field In my youth helped a Professional trapper His holes were small for The foot holds why the Change And was not set so deep
Here in Wyoming, if your housecat strays off your proppity, it’s classified as a varmint. I’ve trapped and shot a lot of Tabbys over the years. “I wonder what happened to Oscar. He didn’t come home this morning.” Haha
Hi Dave, I'm updating my BOB bag. I have been looking at a Chinese Round Rat trap. It looks like a miniature Conibear 110 trap. Did you ever use it? If you did, your opinion? Thanks you
I love Dave. The knowledge he teaches for free for us on you tube is a blessing. Thank you sir.
Dave has likely forgotten more about bushcraft then most people will ever know. Endless knowledge. Definitely one of the best in the business👍🏼👍🏼

Hi Dave, greeting from Australia 🇦🇺. Thank you for your time to make these videos, muchly appreciated.

Amazing Dave ! This changed my whole paradigm of the trigger system. I could see this working even with a deadfall.
Primitive trapping is the coolest subject. Never done it but live to watch the instructionals and learn about this survival knowledge
I turned the lower level of the house into a survival course. I wrote “instructor” in permanent marker on the back of my best orange Carhartt “Force” Tshirt.
Thank you Dave for being a father figure to so many. It. means more than you know brother.
Dave's the man. He's the modern day best there is.
You the man Dave, didn't think I was going to like this one, enjoyed it and will practice this next outing!
Pure educational Gold! Thank you Dave...
Learned a lot right here in 10 minuets. Thank you Dave, it was awesome .👍✌🏻🇺🇸🙏🏽😎
Explained in a way everyone can figure out how it works.
A very nice demonstration.
Thanks! I really liked the roll trick and the bait stick. That's great stuff. :)
Wow, the rolling out trick is cool. Thanks Dave!
This was another great visual on an L7 trap I'm going to go make a few right now so I can practice it.
Great demonstration sir, thanks for sharing this David.
Your knowledge and inventiveness is awesome. Thank you!

I forgot to comment on the knife video. My husband has the Scorpion knife, and it is awesome!

I love this trigger

That was an awful big pile of condemnation to try and cover with that little bitty thank you.

Thanks dave great info !
wow that is handy, such simple tools too
Excellent info. 👍
Watch your channel for sometime you always
Go the extra mile thanks
On the trapping shows
I see them tearing up
The ground looks like
A freshly plowed field
In my youth helped a
Professional trapper
His holes were small for
The foot holds why the
Change
And was not set so deep
I will try that this trapping season tks for the tips
Great stuff friend 👏 👍
This video will help me catch peoples cat for dinner after the apocalypse comes....Great vid dave
Great stuff!!!
The best thank you brother
Good job
Thanks
Great video easy to understand, was that a hardcore hammer hatchet.
Here in Wyoming, if your housecat strays off your proppity, it’s classified as a varmint. I’ve trapped and shot a lot of Tabbys over the years. “I wonder what happened to Oscar. He didn’t come home this morning.” Haha
Very cool!
Very good.
BRILLIANT !!!
Yeah the loops are hard to see, but I can Google those for details.
Watching the video I was thinking why not use the bait stick on the fishing setup as the trigger?
Awesome...
Hi Dave does the thickness of the cord matter for animal size and have you ever tried a Canadian Jam knot for the noose cheers
Thanks for the tips. What kind of hatchet were you using there? Looks like a vintage plumb shinglers hatchet.
Sweet dude
That’s money right there!!!
Simple is good.
Brilliant
"It will be L7
And I'd never get to heaven
If I filled my head with glue"
Always wondered what Paul meant... "It's a trap!"
L7 weren't they a band 🤔 great presentation, judging by the comments.
Slick 🙏
Hi Dave, I'm updating my BOB bag. I have been looking at a Chinese Round Rat trap. It looks like a miniature Conibear 110 trap. Did you ever use it? If you did, your opinion? Thanks you
how strong of a tensioner would you need?
Another tool for the tool box.
😮
Too bad they're illegal here but good info.
Im not good with traps
👋🏻👀💞👍🏻
It’s all about Jesus
They're not secrets if you put them on YT...
Thank you
