As I read through the various forums, threads and posts I have to laugh at folks and what they whine and complain about. In general, do you have a "philosophy" that gets you through you detecting day? Like "one piece of silver and I'll be happy" or "just one wheaty and I'll be satified with finding something old" or maybe it's "I hope I find about $3 in clad today - that would really make my day!" or is it "There has got to be a gold ring here somewhere and I'm going to find it". I notice that if some folks don't get what they expect to get they complain that their machine isn't working right or they need to move someplace where there are "better targets" or some such bs to justify their complaint.
With me it is one little rhyming phrase - "I'm looking for something deep, something old, something silver or something gold"
Something else that I go by is "I only dig what I want to dig"
And finally - "If I dig it all I won't have a reason to come back"
With those ideals in mind when I go out to detect I usually find some really great coins and there maybe only a couple, but it satisfies my rhyme (and me) and makes me want to go out again (and not sell my Explorer XS and get something like a DFX or something)
What is your "philosophy"? Lets hear some of your phrases that you detect by.
