    Couldn't Get Permission To Hunt

    I have been trying to catch one of my neighbors home all spring to ask about hunting his yard. I had some inside info that told me it would be a good candidate for some 50's silver. I finally saw him outside tonight and stopped to ask. He hesitated, but told me no. He said he had his own...

    Ok seriously, They weren't kidding - lose the cell phone

    I have been having a tough time with my F75 LTD this spring. I was more comfortable with my CZ3 and it was hitting stuff left and right. The F75 was finding modern clad, shallow. I was not happy. I tried different settings and just couldn't get comfortable. Today, thanks to Elton and others...

    LTD remember the basics

    I thought I was having a problem with my LTD tonight. I tried a factory reset but immediately had problems again. I was thinking, oh no, I am going to have to send it in for service. Then I turned it back on and glanced at the battery monitor. Oops. No battery left. Guys, they are great on...

    CZ Picks up a key date dime - 1895O

    After my question on audio boost, I had to get out tonight and try to hunt with my audio cranked up to 10. At first, I really noticed a difference, but I eventually got used to the sound and was fine. It was after dark when a high tone booming signal stopped me. I recovered a 1953 nickel and...

    Audio Boost on CZs?

    I had a long time CZ tell me that I was missing a lot of faint targets by not running my audio on my CZ up on 10. I had decided I liked the softer audio of deep targets. I think it helps give me a clue on depth. How about you guys? Where do you run your audio and what do you think? HH, Don

    Indiana State Seal Button - CZ 3 talked me into this one

    I went back to the grove where I found the Civil War medal over the weekend. I opened the hole up and made sure the medal hanger was not just hanging around. I started a grid search and got a faint and broken signal. I could tease it into sounding good from a couple of angles, so I dug it...

    CZ Makes My Day - Civil War Medal with name

    Well, I hate to admit it, but I have been almost shut out on silver this year. I have my new LTD and it has found some deep Indians but no silver. My lone silver coin was snagged with the CZ and it was a 1942 nickle. Today, I was determined to find silver. I hunted, and hunted a lot and dug...

    Made Manure Look Good to the F75

    I was hunting an old house yard that was littered with nails. I had hit it a couple of days ago with the F75 and the stock coil. My cool find that day was my Peter Weatherbird watch fob. Today I went back with the small coil and managed to dig about 8 inches deep for a Kemp's Manure Spreader...

    Friday's hunt--a tale of woe and resolve

    Mike, It is more important to slow down and take a breath than worry too much about your coil. The tough thing in metal detecting is mental. We swing and swing and hear nothing, it makes us hurry and sloppy. Just hunt it and keep your mental focus. Better swings lead to better targets...

    CZs should be standard equipment for LTD users.

    Got out tonight to a heavily hit area with my LTD. I hunted for an hour or more and dug a lot of iffy targets and got nothing of real interest. I didn't want to quit without finding something so I went to the other end of town and hit an empty lot where an old house once stood. I decided to...

    Ok to be lazy with the LTD?

    Well, this probably isn't the place to admit it, but I was lazy with the LTD last night. I was hunting an old area where I had found lots of Indiana heads and silver over the years. I haven't got a lot of time in on the LTD and I find myself carrying two detectors along and defaulting to the...

    White's Spectra V3 Price Drop Or Group Buy?

    When I first got interested in detecting about thirty years ago, a dealer told me he would cut me a great deal if I got two buddies to buy the same machine at the same time. I can't remember how great the deal was but I remember the two people who bought detectors with me. We saved some money...

    Winter Boredom Breaker

    Indiana is in the midst of a big ole snow storm with blowing and drifting. Struggled to get home tonight, 20 mile trip, shoveled my drive and walks and collapsed in my favorite chair. The phone rings and the guy wants to know if my "detector thingy" will find stuff in snow. Poor guy takes care...

    Nice F75 with updates $575 w shipping

    Well, I jumped on the LTD bandwagon and need to move my F75. It went to Fisher last year for a new connector and updates. I haven't used it much this season. It has a nice, clear screen and is in good condition. The arm cuff shows some wear but it is used, not abused. This thing is hot, air...

    Anyone good at research? (silver or not)

    It sure looks silver. If it is heavy and clanks when lightly dropped on a table it is silver. Hey, even if it isn't silver it is rally a cool coin. Nice job! HH, Don

    What would you do?

    Whoa, guys. when we ask permission we hope to find things. We shouldn't feel guilty when we find things. No agreement in place, I say the right thing is being appreciative. Most people aren't looking to grab your finds. I would thank them, tell them you have found some old coins, give them...

    My story made it on Whites website

    Wow, congrats. I searched three or four times this spring for a lost wedding ring. It has been gone about 10 years and every pulltab or tiny piece of can slaw got me excited but no ring. I have only reunited a person with a ring with such sentiment one time and it is a rush. Keep talking...

    CZ3D - Large Cent Happy Indiana Boy

    Woo Hoo! I have been looking for one of these things for 30 years. Once I found out about large cents I couldn't believe that I hadn't found one. I decided to search some areas that I know haven't been searched and were old enough to produce a large cent. I have been gridding a soybean field...
