    I should probably just master compass reading in general before I try mastering compass reading in the dark! This video just reminded me how much I don’t know about nav. More to come I hope!

    More people need to click on this. In the world of rifles, pistols, tactical gear, land navigation is one thing too many people overlook! GPS is great, get a lensatic compass and learn how to use it.

    Well, you’ve done it again SGM. A top tier video, outstanding presentation, real world application, and served up with some humor. Thank you TR Team. People pay big money for classes like this and pretty much all your videos. Thanks for making this world a better place. ✌️🇺🇸

    Orienteering is a skill Uncle Sam taught me, and it's come in handy quite a few times.

    One thing you're gonna love Karl when I clicked on this video the commercial was Biden begging for money! One thing that changes is magnetic declination. Over forty years the GM angle has moved west 8 degrees. At least in my area. Great video thanks.

    Great Class
    Just did a day and night land navigation class with local
    Private prepping students.
    Then we had fun with land navigation with no map. Total fun!

    In keeping with the “One is None” mantra, I never go into the woods without that same model compass, a proper GPS, and my solar powered Casio watch that has a magnetic compass.

    We had a guy who got lost while we were hunting. We had radios but he had nearly dead batteries and no spares. He also had a compass with no knowledge of how to use it. He asked "does the red arrow always point north?". Oh boy, this is gonna be a long day.

    Thank you for the video! It would be nice to see a video on practical land nav in the field. For me figuring out where I'm at once I'm lost has been tricky. Every spur and draw start looking like things on the map, very minor streams that might be dry or very low flow get overlooked as references. If I get of course I often have to pull up my GPS to find my actual fix and most of the time I wasn't where I thought i was. Granted this has made me pay more attention so i don't lose track but it does happen and I'd like to know how you deal with that or how to train those failures away
