Pro's Guide to Tactical Tracking | Into The Woods | Episode 2

[@308alaska]

I've learned a few things from 50 yrs of hunting and having tracked wounded deer for other hunters. Just a idea--cut yourself a stick that's the length of a step or stride when you first encounter the trail. when you lose the track STOP and place the stick on the toe print of the last visible track ---next gently sweep away the leaves looking for a pressure imprint at the tip of the stick. I've used this tracking deer in leaves and trespassing hunters on my farm . People are much easier to track than deer. Deer can suddenly jump 12 ft in a totally different direction of travel. I once spent 4 hrs at night tracking a wounded deer for a friend. I found it. Great satisfaction. Hope this helps someone.

Same at my place. I got a dog and thermal scope now though. Nothing has gotten away yet.

I was going to say that this sounds a lot like tracking deer! But I'm just getting here.... ;) I really enjoy their CQB videos!

[@jdg5682]

Tracking humans that are trying to hide their tracks is much more difficult than tracking animals

[@Kilnor]

Gotta say, this guy knows his stuff. It's not like the movies where you track someone or something while running through the woods. It's a slow tedious process that is exhausting.

[@ufprogear]

We could listen to Boris sharing his knowledge for hours.

[@borisvos1971]

The Kilnor Absolutely, spot on mate 👍🏽👍🏽

[@instructeurke]

@@borisvos1971 Some nice tips for when track is lost. We can use it when tracking with our dogs, although the speed is a little higher there since the dog does the lead...

[@kuttz12]

Unless you are doing a hot pursuit then the drill and formation changes and you are literally moving at a rapidly pace. Awesome explaination and demonstration of initial probe and cast drill. Nice work Boris!

[@Drownedinblood]

Isn't it time sensitive though cuz then the person/s might get a lead on ya?

Not gonna lie, I could watch UF PRO videos all day, the production quality is very very high and the information on them is fantastic. Beautiful video.

I think those dislikes come from the persons who were tracked.. i really don't know how to dislike these great information videos which have such effort put into it. This playlist is just awesome and precious.

[@CircaSriYak]

This is a perfect fusion of cinematography and practical concise information. Bravo.

[@adamshiler7784]

hallo Boris and UF PRO. Id like to say that I relly enjoyed your video, well dune. I served as a combat tracker in the IDF and actuely lernd a lot of new things that we did not do as well as a lot of things that are the same. also it was interesting to see you explain how to track while covering the front, we usde to just have somone in the force whos job it was to follow the tracks while evryone else would cover him. hope to see the rest of the series soon and thank you.

8:57 - Note that Boris keeps the search area as uncontaminated as possible if the track is lost. This is tip top tippy toe of the dark arts.

[@RevvedupGamer]

This was amazing. Came for the info, and got a pretty sick movie by the end.

[@alfwennskog6662]

Good guide in the fundamentals in tracking, with the fundamentals in mind you'll need to ad experience and that only comes with practice. I'm tracking my self each day, following my own tracks from the last dog walk, give me tracks that are of diffrent times, from 4-5 h up to a week old. Keep up the good work.

"UF PRO: The Movie". The badass strike squad wearing UF PRO gear heads into the woods to track down rogue mercenaries who use dynamic entries instead of limited penetration (the latter CQB method is used by the good guys). Combat is brutal since there are "reality checks" with drawing guns and knives.

[@Stroy2024-d7d]

There is a slight difference to the track pursuit drill that we do down under. Cover man comes up and all members go to the knee to lower the patrols signature. And added process is to look through the vegetation for the quarry prior to moving forward as a lead scout. All senses are used prior to setting off on a trail. Sight, smell, sound and touch. Brilliant video

[@grzegorzp.5734]

Incredible knowledge, astonishing video-edit.. Slow paced, no action actually, but watching it keeps my heart rate speeding, as if I was watching some best thriller-action movie! With that narration of Mr. Vos and background music, I feel like I was that tracked "target".. And I know I can only lose that game. :)

[@chrish.6934]

UF Pro, to you guys got it going on. Between the clothing & hear y'all offer & the videos y'all have available. Thanks guys from the bottom of my heart, for real, for releasing the info. & education about the things y'all talk about

[@v.german11b]

Outstanding! Excellence. Master Scout Boris Vos is well articulated and conveys his thoughts so clearly. Again, thanks for sharing.

[@hp2137]

Great graphics and explanation of the basics mate. Those casting drills sure do soak up the time especially if you have to move from the initial cast into an extended cast. Patience, discipline and honesty are only a handful of the key attributes of a VT and team. This will pay dividends when a VT loses the sign. Maintaining discipline is paramount. Communicate whatever you are seeing to your VT2 who should be standing by the LDS and scanning his arcs. The "target," will almost always follow the path of least resistance. Track on and happy hunting mate.

[@borisvos1971]

You are 100% right mate, great comment! I can see you did your fair share of it.

[@CarlNewton06]

Top quality as always. Just want to know if those steps also work when there is heavy rain, strong wind? And I know is not recommended to keep tracking during the night, but is it possible?

[@borisvos1971]

Carl Rey Wind and rain will deteriorate the sign faster. In this case, in the woods, the vegetation actually helps in protecting the sign, as it is less exposed. But you are right. Rain, strong wind, direct sunlight, other activity will all age the sign faster. And yes, you can track during the night if the substrate allows for it, using coloured lights or IR, specific formations and hard, hard work ;)

[@frederik7765]

Very impressive and an amazing high quality! But i have one Questions: The men you are searching for are possibly marching long distances; Isnt this Method to slow to find them in time? And i know...better than to have no clue where they went.

[@borisvos1971]

Outlaw Seven You answered the question mate ;) The problem, imagine my position; I know the track is between 4-8 hours old. However, there’s no guarantee they are not waiting in a ambush. With a visibility of at times a mere 5-10 meters, I have to be careful, especially because I can’t choose the ground I walk on. I have to follow the track. Now, ideally, there would be multiple teams. That’s why I’m updating C/S 0 about my location, age of sign and direction of the quarry. That way command can start putting other teams in. Unfortunately, I don’t have that luxury here. We will have to figure it out by ourselves 🙏🏽👊🏽

[@hp2137]
