    No Nickels And Dimes Today - Just GOLD

    I am on another streak. Got up this morning and my back was killing me. I wasn't about to go dig in the wet grass, so I hit the tots. There is a good size tot not far from me in a park across from a grade school. It is one that is a low clad producer, but I work it once a month or so. I got...

    MXT Snags gold And Silver Rings

    I had gone out early this morning and nothing would go right. It seamed I just couldn't get started. When things go bad, it usually gets worse. I finally got to a park, worked it about 45 minuets, but found nothing. I really wasn't in the mood any longer, I no longer had my usual focus and kids...

    Soccer Field Yields Gold And Silver

    I have been working a small tot lot off and on for a while in a small park that has a soccer field in it. Every time I am out there I keep telling myself I need to hunt that field.

    Your Detector Is Only A Tool.

    Having a detector that does everything but shine your shoes is great. But it will only do half the job. You have to train your mind to focus every minuet of the day to find treasure. So many times I have been out and about and found valuable jewelry just laying on the ground. You would not...

    Shame On Me For Buying Brand X

    " A Man Has His Creed, And Mine Is All Greed" I, for health reasons, decided that my trusty MXT was just too heavy for me to work with, much over a couple of hours a day. I decided that I should be working several hours a day. So greed lead me to buy brand X, a lighter detector, less bells...

    Coil Repair Tip

    On occasion you will find yourself with a cracked coil that still works perfectly, but no longer water proof. You can fix them and fortify the body with "J B Weld". It can be spread over the crack or entire coil to seal and strengthen. Then, after it hardens, you can sand and paint to finish...
