Tracking is not a very commonly talked about skill, at least anymore. We did a video on tracking a while back with Seaux Larreau that you can find in our video archive, where he taught the basics of the step by step method. Those are the basic building blocks of the skill. In that video he mentioned Peter Kerr with TTOS (Tactical Tracking Operations School) https://ttoscorp.com . Peter teaches tactical tracking to close with the individual as rapidly as possible. Peter has been on counter drug task forces, taught swat teams and helped with Border security.
Well, we finally convinced Peter to share some of his knowledge with us… and you. This was really eye opening for us.
If you’ve spent a bunch of time outdoors you’ve most likely given at least some thought to what a useful skill this can be in so many contexts. Other than just tactical applications it’s useful for finding missing people, hunting or maybe finding your own way back to safety, just to name a few that come to mind.
Unfortunately, just like any other skill, you can get some great knowledge from watching this but you gotta go outside and play to develop these skills. Hopefully you find this useful, as well as a good motivator to go spend some time outside learning it for yourself.

Awesome stuff. I was lucky enough to do course taught by Peter and the Rhodesian he was mentioning. Great skill and super useful.
and this is a good way to not find who you are looking for.
Good video the only part I didn't like was in the beginning when he gave clues about being a Saturday people.
The best search and rescue and military tracker in North America and probably the world is Pat Howard in northern New Mexico. Cool video.
Greetings and Salutations
Well, everyone does not have it like you do, that's why you easier to find
I had that nerve cluster moved years ago 😊
Great upload, thanks
I always carry a roll of window caulk rope. While I have lots of uses for this stuff one good use is to plug/unplug your boot treads to create a variety of patterns. Makes it much more difficult to be tracked. Simply use the caulk to change your boot pattern every time you enter a high traffic or rocky area. Then use a different gait until you are well clear of the area. The idea is to slow them down allowing you to increase the distance between you and them. It also makes you look smarter than them which makes them more cautious which serves the same purpose of slowing them down. Placing a chemical hand warmer in a tree crux of an inaccessible place if they have infrared or wiping your face and peeing on a piece of clothing and then throwing it down a cave crevasse or some inaccessible hiding place then back tracking before setting off in the opposite direction is also a good move if they have dogs. Trying to track me is a lot of fun for me. 😂
Is this filmed in New Mexico? Specifically Alamagordo??
And what not….
Great video looking forward to more!
Now put carpet on their shoes and give them a tree branch to brush out 😂
This is embarrassing, I thought it said,how to be an attractive human being. Oops…🙄
22:56 3eees gotta boner!!!
deception technique could mean the person being tracked keeps turning around to see if his being tracked or being followed that would let the tracker know that the person being tacked might be close
Beshak mere zindagi ka ek pasandeda bayan
Just Google 'em!
What happened to the live streams, tactical Tuesday?
LOL catch Carl I could catch Carl with my eyes closed there's no challenge there when you were talking earlier about smarts versus smarts that's not an opponent just running from you that's an opponent trying to survive and to survive he has to rub you out my daddy and my grandpa used to say life don't play fair so you shouldn't either there's no such thing and there's a lot of booby traps that you can set to slow down a Tracker all you're doing is wasting time to get space between you so that you can set a trap he won't get out of
Sounded like a Metallica song played in reverse. I back tracked my steps and found him.
A really fun training game I used to do as a teen was to get a group of friends together, find a nice large chunk of Wildland, give one or two of the group an hour headstart. Then the rest of the group tracks and closes the distance. Like extreme hide and seek. We ended up teaching ourselves allot of the techniques shown in this video.
Look forward to the "How to dress a human corpse like the legend Jeffery" it's gonna be legendary
Excellent video, now for the counter-tracking techniques
I'm trying to figure out why human beings are tracking me and monitoring my life like they are crazed fools!!!
In our temporate dense forest full of ground caves and springs and streams and marshes to track person even with dogs is another story
Lol. He said if she’s butchy and just doesn’t care. Classic.
One point I disagree with. That’s him saying if a person is concealing their direction with what he says is a deception technique are up to no good. Maybe that some people know about this and do not want to be followed. They could be ex military. The could be a person like I say that is just aware of these things and doesn’t trust humanity, ( rightfully so ) and they prefer moving in stealth. I mean even he said in the beginning with a questionable laugh that people have evolved.
This explains how they caught OBL. Trackers. Interesting. I like it.
During my time in the forces I learned that our training on tracking and ambush position identification were not great. As a private playing OpFor for more experienced troops I was consistently able to ambush them. It wasn't through any particular skill or talent on my part, but definitely through a distinct lack of training on the Forces part.
Bro lost me 10 min too much blah blah blah
By far the least available or even thought of topic in the "military enthusiast"/prepper/wannabe commando community. I checked for courses online out of curiosity (in 4 languages) and found almost nothing – not even for park rangers and law enforcement
Let's make vids ridiculous in the first 2 mins just because okay…yahoo great idea !……wanker
Russians track using heat seeking missiles. It's quicker that way. 😂
Former Pathfinder here. I bet you can't track me. I also bet I can slap you right on your tactical a__ while you are tracking me.
Bet you in this video your guy makes it super easy to track him.
Can you keep my attention is the remaining question. 03:21, buh bye
One of the Mongolian children nearly got out of the Forest, thanks for the Advice!
I like
STARTS @ 4:19
read the number one seller of all time "bible" man has always walked up right
Nice info! Thx!
Btw What kind of jacket is he wearing?
This class would be wonderful for attention deficit young boys to do instead of giving them drugs.
I'm in hawaii. I'd love to help by being the one tracked. Spent my whole life in the mountains and jungles of Hawaii hunting and hiking. If you need runners with years of outdoors experience please contact me. All of my hunting experience is stalking and tracking. Do not sit and wait nor do I tree stand.
These guys are extremely well trained and well informed. I wouldn't like to p*ss them off😂
@31:35…..so there IS a boy named sue????
And animals?💀
lol bullshit
Just found your channels guys and love this content. Thanks for sharing. Cheers from Alberta!
In the whole of the Rhodesian bush war , I never saw a combat tracker ever take out a camera and photograph a track or use a tape measure.😂😂😂 We killed hundreds of gooks without any of this nonsense…
Infrared will detect foot prints left behind for an hour, and reviel a hidden body… Especially good at night.
Best trackers are the Namibian Bushman. The South African military used their skills during the Bush war to track terrorists.
They can track animals for days into the Namibian desert chasing an animal till it drop dead from exhaustion.
Living in the country you find out who’s tire marks were in your drive! Tape your footwear up to eliminate tread marks and don’t dig your heels in 😅and never walk in a straight line or take even pace and step on hard surfaces that don’t retain a print 😊
YOU DO NOT HUNT A MAN
I wonder if this expert has ever been tracking a circle and realizing the person he is tracking is tracking him also. I would watch a video on those deceptive techniques. I gave a 👍ty for the education
