Yesterday afternoon I was outside with the f75ltd when digging a target I pulled out a petrifed sharks tooth,I'm 60 miles from the ocean.....yes it is stone and very reconizable no problems.....I wish I could carbon date it..........Now as most of you know I have a brain tumor (I'm doing better thanks for your Prayers God Is Good)....Thinking of the sharks tooth I have a hard time getting up and down ,So I decided to dig targets out with a long handle shovel then bend over and find the dirt clog that has the target with the pro pointer at that point I scoope the clog up with my beach scoope with 3 foot handle to help stableize me,Then I take it and shake it out and if I want to take it to the water hose but the loose dirt is easy to sake out my target is in the scoope which I have covered the bottom with 1/8 or 1/4 hardware cloth and electical ties......Works good for me you learn to improvise when you gotta .....God Bless All

LOL Jim, it was in the dirt I dug out I just happen to see it and wipe it off it is completly stone no metal at all the pro pointer is silent on it .....I will tell you a lot of times I thought the f75ltd was giving me a false single ....I was wrong using this technique I'm finding the targets.....some are so small and a foot deep but they are there......some shallower but the target is there i can find it betterI'mfinding things like small snap buttons off cowboy shirts small things like that will crumble in your hand but anyway I thought I would share this its a lot better on me I will get my wife to put a pic of the cool sharks tooth later maybe .....The good thing for me right now is my yard has old activity here so I'm having fun when I can get out there....HH....God Bless

I have found sharks teeth on I -20 south west Dallas, TX. There is a seam of rock on the north side of the hi-way. You can dig all the sharks teeth you want there.

A couple weeks ago I found 195 sharks teeth. I was at Venus Beach, Fl.
