    :usaflag: Hit the tot lots again

    :detecting: There are a couple of school tot lots that everybody likes to hunt and I find that a challenge. Did not find much, but enough to keep it interesting. Nope, no silver or gold on this hunt. I used a Super Tuned Vaquero on this hunt. Bill in Texas :tesoro:

    :usaflag: Yep I found it!

    :usaflag: Bill I thought you were a jewelry hunter?

    :detecting: Well sometimes when I just set the Vaquero on foil and beep and dig (not the deep ones) I find nothing but coins. This bunch was found in a city park where there is nothing but 3 ball fields (sand lot style). Being in Kerrville you need a jack-hammer to dig anything deep, so with my...

    :usaflag: Two non-detector finds

    :look: I have not been out detector hunting for a few days as I needed to do some things around the house. I needed to make a key for a lock that I could not find a blank for, so I got out a big box of keys that I have had for many years. I hound a key that would work with a little filing. I...

    :usaflag: Two for a quick hunt

    :twodetecting: My wife and myself made a quick hunt at bullet park (what no bullets). She used her Compadre and I used my green CX. I wanted to check a few iron targets to see if there could be some relics there. All the iron that I dug was of the modern variety, so I backed off the depth and...

    :usaflag: A quickie hunt

    :detecting: I took my wife to a part of town that I don't go to very often. I dropped her off for a visit and went hunting, but we had to be home to meet someone in a hour and fifteen minutes, so I only got to hunt about 40 minutes. I used her Compadre, set the discrimination just above pull...

    :usaflag: A walk in the Park

    :detecting: Well I can't past up detecting even when I don't have much time. I was passing a little park that I have hunted many times on the way home and my pickup just pulled right over to the curb and died. Will what was a fellow to do, so I got out old Vaquero and detected a bit. This 30-30...

    :usaflag: Hmmmmm

    :detecting: Close school lot. I have no idea what the chrome looking plated aluminum cube shaped object is in the middle. I guess it shows how square I am. The vaquero picked up the little very thin heart at about 4 inches. The V also read the Hot Wheels tire, but only about 1 inch. One nice...

    :usaflag: Back to old rocky park

    :twodetecting: I took my wife, for the first time to old hard rocky park. She found a dime and I found the rest. She said, "no more hard digging for her, and she is not coming back to old rocky park". You know I don't blame her, I don't think I will go back to that place again myself. In the...

    :usaflag: Skunked at the tot-lot (or maybe Rhino-ed)

    :twodetecting: My wife and myself went to a city tot-lot that we had not been to for awhile. I knew that it would be clean, because it is very well hunted, so we hunted in all metal. We found nothing, but a few small pieces of wire, foil, and bb's. She did find the Rhino without the help of the...

    :detecting: I went back to the school tot-lot about 3 blocks from my house today with the Compadre. I, as several others have hunted this lot several times and it is supposed to be hunted out, but every time I go there I find something. I don't know how I missed the old large Las Vegas Mirage...

Of course I found...
