    Dug from the crashing Surf

    Hunting in All Metal, I thought it was probably a tent peg. So about the third scoop, up came a Cross. Really didn't figure it out why it was made of Nails. .....A nail for each hand and one for his feet. Cleaned up real nice (stainless) I believe. Wife got a Silver chain, and I'm...

    So who is buying all these detectors ?

    It can be quite confusing. If you count all the different companies that make detectors, than count all their different models, well that's a load to go through. The parks, schools I hunt rarely see anyone else out there. I'm thinking the cashless era has really hurt the replenishing of these...

    Rehoboth Beach I was the last to know

    I get down there for a six day hunt. Usually lots of hunters even before dawn. I'm all alone. Can't figure it, six hunts seen maybe 4 other guys. Well found out during last spring a big storm came in washed out the whole beach. It got replenished, another storm came in , washed everything...

    So the Axiom, think its curtins for the Atx

    Just hope the Axiom won't have all the cable troubles. Seems it's better constructed. Can't submerge it though. Wonder how many guys hunt gold with a detector? Definitely a tool for a specialist.

    Ahhh , Shoot me

    Yesterday hunting a practice field above a Ele. School. Hunting the back side, while standing I can see the school. While digging plugs, couldn't see the school. So I'm hunting about an hour here comes 2 custodians in their Jeep. Seems from down by the school they could see my hat going...

    So, in the years ahead

    Yep, in the future Cladd coin finds are going to become fewer and fewer. Fresh drop finds already becoming scarce. The US goverment is way ahead of getting rid of the penny their working on getting rid of using all coins. Plastic, the young not being taught how to count, vender prices...

    Stacked !

    Love it when ya dig one of these. Early in the hunt, couple trash targets, than a nice steady hit a little too high for a quarter. Dug the plug, only about 3-4 inches deep. Sandwiched like a deck of cards. Four quarters, 3 dimes. Clad. Been over that area many times before. Wonder I...

    My Eyeballed finds should be improving

    Their taking my Left Kat er Rack this morning. They say more than anything, vision should brighten up some. Going to try to fix up my ability to read some coin dates in the field. Anyway We'll See. Quiet a few times in the past I couldn't honestly say if I spotted a target or...

    Things that have changed affecting the sport

    Heres a few things I remember from growing up around my Dad & Uncles. When a guy emptied out his pockets, most likely you would find. Some coins, a pen knive , keys, wallet and most likely a lighter. (not a bic ) Coins are about gone now. It's swipe the card, keep the change...

    Last week a park, yesterday a large sports area. Baseball ,basketball and 2 soccer fields. Both sites have a lot in common. Coins are scant. Pulltabs and can slaw everystep. Most places I've hunted there's usually a lot of coins mixed in with the trash. But Not these 2 places. And...

    Beep & Dig Vista X. Scoring on a couple Silver pieces

    Park hunting and not losing anything with the 8 inch coil. The Pendant and the Bracelet were dug in different trashy fields. The X has 2 discrimination knobs that enables the hunter to pick their posion. Being a park hunter, I try to set around the Nickel. Which once in a while results in...

    A signal not often come across

    Hunting a seldom used sports field. This field once held Little League games along with football & Soccer games. Even HS Band practices. Over the years got a good share of clad couple pieces of Silver. Used a lot of different machines. So yesterday went in with the X. Trying to squeeze...

    On Da Topp

    Been hitting up some local parks since the thaw. Everything shallow or even eye balled. Few days ago , dug a fairly heavy pendant with the Vista X. Was holding the AT Pro today, and there laying in all it's glory. Was this pretty ,nice mens bracelet. Looked it up $33 over the...

    Finally, a Silver Pendent

    Had the X and another machine hunting around a outdoor basketball court at a park this week. Yesterday was the second hunt for the X around this court. Picking threw the usual trash, tabs, alum slaw, and many pennies. Honestly no matter how many times going over the same area there was...

    Having to listen rather than reading

    Some people are just good listeners. Going hunting with a Analogue you have to become one with the machines language. Like some people your on the same page with. We all seen people walking around watching their phones missing everything around them. Today's digital machines have so much...

    Opening day, doing a little sniffing around

    Had a couple nice days upere in Pa. Soccer field I hunted was about perfect. Very moist but not muddy. Sunny day, low 50's. So started out not many targets around at all. Picked off a Quarter, couple pieces of can slaw. Pretty dead. Than I started slowing way down and began to get...

    Deciding on and comparing new machines. Can get a little comic.

    Some things to watch for. Whenever a Hot number comes out, out comes all the nail board tests (Comparison's). Yep, pretty near any detector ever build has gone through one of these tests. Detectors costing from $250 and upwards to the thousands, never seen a video where one failed...

    Something ain't right with this 1956 Rosy

    Got this dot on it (both sides) and it just doesn't feel right. Only coin found on the hunt. Salt water beach in Panama City Beach. Any ideas ?

    "He will out hunt you with his machine, than out hunt you with yours"

    Now there's a comparison. I'd like to claim that quote, but honestly I read it around here a good time ago. Think about that. I think we in our immediate circles know someone like that. Myself when I first started beach hunting , there was a guy with years more experience in the water than...
