    Saying goodbye to the hobby

    Starting in the spring I have been offered a position helping handicapped hunters. This is something that has been in the works for awhile. I know I will enjoy giving back to the hunting community. I sold my E-Trac yesterday and am ready for a new chapter in my life. Just wanted to say goodbye...

    Freshly Disced Field

    I went out to my bean field and it has all been disced today. Please tell me that will mess with the detecting some. I was able to find a 1917 D Wheat penny but it was only about an inch deep. It just seemed to me the deeper targets were not there. It's kind of like they disappeared. On a...

    One lonely dime

    Just about got skunked today. Doug and I met up at our little honey hole. Doug hit a nice Indian and a Barber dime today. His Barber was an 1897 so he made the 1800's club this year also. He also found out that the E-Trac's do go deep. You should have seen the sweat rolling off his forehead from...

    A total surprize find

    I was digging in the closet a little while ago and in a shoe box I came across this old bank bag. I had totally forgot about this stuff and have not seen it in years. In 1985 we got locked out of where I was working. All of my metal detecting gear and silver finds I sold to put food on the...
