bushcraft

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'george has skill in survival procedures' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'george has skill' is the wordplay.
'george' becomes 'bush' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'has' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'skill' becomes 'craft' (craft is a kind of skill).
'bush'+'craft'='BUSHCRAFT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bushcraft that I've seen before include "What's needed to travel in the wild" , "survival skills" , "Backwoodsman uses this" , "Skill at living in wild country" .)
