Got that Indians number! (?)

[D&P-OR]

Couple of interesting questions (at least to me).----(1) What's the lowest #'s any of you guys are getting on IH's in actual "in field" hunting?-----(2) How would you class your ground when you got those #'s (low, medium or high mineralization)?----We're talking about the Etrac here.---------Del

I think my lowest was 34 or 35
down about 6 inches
low mineralization

D&P,

I got a beautiful '66 indian last fall that hit solid 32-12 in two directions in some pretty unmineralized ground (fill dirt) at 6 inches. I actually walked past it and then came back, since it was behind first base on a ballfield. Must have been left in the fill. Most of the indians I find here in wisconsin hit 34-35 conductive, with ferrous number all over the place if they are really deep. I have found several indians that hit 32/34-1 too that were deep and on edge I assume.

34-35 for me as well, but I have dug some at 37. Normally I will pass on the 37 if it is shallow and in a park setting. If it is in a private yard and shallow at 37, I'll definitely dig it.

10-39 to 5-37 highly mineralized
sun ray was 9-37 inch away
1908 IH

About a week ago I dug a 1900 Indian Head that had a conductivity number of 36.

I've had them at CO 31,32,33,34,35 as well as the early teens wheats 1909, 1910, etc. But then again some have been higher... 37, 38 and one at 41.

Thanks guys, you've been a big help-appreciate it.-----There's a "method to my madness" (so to speak).----The main thing I was trying to find out about was sort of an "worst case scenario" of ---CO #'s on IH's in various types of grounds.----The ground I usually hunt in is pretty mean (mineralized) areas.--------Del
