probably not. bushcraft is pretty popular

For now, sailing is better, because I would rather have a sheet in my hand, a tiller extention in the other, wind blowing in my face, and a friend crewing for me, then have fun running through the woods >:D ;D (If someone could explain bushcraft to me, that would be nice, although I do know it is roughing it in the woods).

oh well i think he needs to learn some proper English.  it doesn't make much sense

Actually, his sentence structure is fine, it makes perfect sence. If anything (I dont want to start a flame war), your reading skills could be just a bit better (and for that, so could your punctuation).
