Victory Loves Preparation!
A comical saying at best, but one that describes why we are all here if I do say so myself. For all intents and purposes I can be called Render, as my Forum name suggests. For the last three years or so I have become increasingly aware of the need to be "prepared" as it were, and have been working to that end. I am twenty-three years of age, but don't let my age fool you. I have been active in the field of survival, for about ten years now, since a dear uncle first introduced me to the subject at the tender age of twelve. I enjoy anything and everything from day-camping to long term wilderness survival. I have focused more on bush-craft than relying on more modern means.
Although don't get me wrong, I have taken some of the more "traditional" classroom setting courses, but prefer the RLD Method as I like to call it, or Read, Learn, Do. Motivation is something that you need, and I feel instilling yourself with that motivation from the start is critical in continuing it later on.
I live in Southern Ohio, but travel quite a bit, for camping, fishing, hunting, and backpacking. I would like to say my skill level on a broad range of topics is intermediate to advanced (I like to believe knowledge is power, Learn More, Do More).
Anyway I have been haunting your forums here for a couple days and finally decided to join.
Any questions please feel free to ask. I know I've been a little vague, but I hate speaking of myself.
Cheers
Render
