It is never too late to start learning new things. I wouldn't say I am too much of a country boy even though I sometimes wish that I was more of one. Just get out there and start practicing, I bet you could find dozens of people on here that would be more than happy to take you out and show you how to make a fire and tie knots and stuff like that. Also remember to practice, some skills you lose if you don't use, I am also guilty of this.
