Heads or Tails?

[strick]

Last week I flipped the ole Zed ferrite ring and it landed on heads (gray side up) so instead of the desert Lisa and I headed to the high Sierras for a nice long weekend of gold hunting. We were lucky to find some of the yellow stuff. 9 pieces totaled a little over 8 grams. I found a nice 5.2 gram piece that will make a perfect pendent for her next birthday. I covered some ground trying to find a new patch but I had most of my luck slowly and persistently working the patch that I had scored previously. The 2300 never left the back seat of the truck on this trip as I'm starting to feel now that I don't want to put the 7000 down and miss a deep nugget. Speaking of deep I dug  a big lead slug on this trip that had to be 24 inches down. The deeper you go the more exciting it gets. Good hunting to you all.

Folks- Don't be fooled by his success!

  It's not his natural skill, the fancy detector, his secret settings, his tenacity OR his magic ring. IT'S HIS SCRUFFY LITTLE DOG!

Chuck,

Now your talking! The 2300, is fun and very capable...but, that bigger coil on the GPZ make the 2300 to take the back seat.

I like that nice 5.2 grammer. Looks like a little foot.
