  1. Fields of infinite targets 100+ years old isn't a bad place to be in the middle of.... πŸ€— πŸ‘
  2. I see there's a nice storage "trunk" on your new walker there 350 ! πŸ₯Έ I try to keep the car close by but sometimes just leave the iron by the nearest road/path and drive back to collect it all. I like EVH shreds as much as the next guy but yearn for some Slow Hand so I can have a chance to find the elusive "golden pick" !😏
  3. Sometime back in the 80s , Micronta Discovery II ( made by Bounty Hunter). I found a diamond ring with it in deep snow . But the owner told me where to look.😏 Rekindled interest 4 years ago.
  4. 2 Carrots = are you sure you need another PP ?πŸ€” Want= Well that's something different isn't it ? Welcome aboard and good luck hunting whatever you decide ! Yo hoh πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ
  5. That was one heck of a good hour !
  6. πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ πŸ––πŸ‘πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈπŸ˜Ž
  7. Depending on where you are , a small "campfire" or even a hibachi might be a good option. Kinda slows you down but so does the ice. Hot water will probably make things worse ...
  8. You found some cool stuff ! The child's sword got me thinking (uh oh) , I wonder if self defense was a more serious thing in that time period and children , especially well to do ones , were trained as part of the home team due to whatever marauders were currently a threat ? Fencing has been around a long time also..
  9. I think you should expect it to be waterproof .That's why it exists IMO. A little cold country tricks (and I'll probably be in trouble for printing it) when you find something in frozen ground that sounds SOOOOOOO good ! Cover it with a tent or ? and heat the inside, another less prepared one is park a vehicle with the muffler over it and take a coffee break...πŸ₯Έ "I've found you my precious!" or a pull tab πŸ™„
  10. Geeze Gerry ....wrap up post is all days in one amazing.🀯 I hope the trip planner gets a bonus for knowing location location location ! πŸ‘ (I assume you must have taken that detector training course those guys up in Idaho do ,,,, maybe even more than once?)πŸ€” That gold ring is a stunner , even with already seeing it when you first posted the find ! At first I thought "OMG , he found another one ! "πŸ€‘ And a couple/three to keep it company this time too ! 😜 I'm sure the difference in the finds would go a long way to offsetting the future cost difference of the higher end over the average places ? (I've played the work "vacations" card (for 30 years straight) and the actual tax savings on the deduction is WAY less than that deduction was....) You COULD do it full time , well assuming the trend towards "el cheapo" wedding rings fades out soon.....
  11. Mud Boots , Mud Boots , Mud Boots ! Yum yum , dig 'em up ! (old 3 stooges "almost a quote")
  12. It's probably not on any map but you live on top of a gold mine of finds....🀯
  13. 350 HOW did I miss this thread ? Now I just used up all of my likes ! Talk about Merry Christmas ! Even your yahd is giving you presents ! I always expect "something good" when you post your out front yahd finds . Your yahd sure outdid itself this hunt though ! OOOOOie !
  14. Welcome aboard stephent ! Looks like that new 700 has brought you here to the best place to get up to speed on it ! So it must work well. Has it helped you find anything else ? Use the power of all the experience gathered together here in one place ! Posting finds here usually brings comments about them which can reveal previously unknown value as treasure . arrrrrrπŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ Don't be shy ,ask your questions and good luck out there on the hunt.
  15. welcome to the group gilgsn ! Glad that you found a winner and some beer and that they went well together! Hope whichever detector you chose will be a winner to. It's hard to pick one that isn't these days... Spending some time on the forums here will make that decision easier no doubt. There's a huge amount of detecting info to go over and more posted every day ! There's a Nokta only forum (bet you already found it)! If you want more clues on detecting in general , check out Steve's Guides
  16. Good to hear about gear that works as advertised Skull ! I might have to research those "endless tanks" sounds like the key for the shallows. Better that you got the settings tuned in time for the finds !
  17. Good hunt Compass ! All the food groups too. Nice pile of yellow , the scorpion is stunning. You'll remember that one for a long time !πŸ––
  18. Cold or hot, I wouldn't care . It's all about the dirt. Which,,,i guess always looks better on the other side ? 😏 I would have driven right past you to get away from that cold ! But looks like it's not to be this year...arrrr yer safe for now matey . Actually it hasn't been all that bad ,,,so far. A very Weirdo Winter ,,,again. That reminds me , I need to go out and see if the shovel bounces back or pushes in ....
  19. R U a player ? I originally picked them up cheap to practice set ups and other luthier skills to make me more valuable on a tour . Plus I was designing the electronics for a builder prototype guitar and a test subject was needed , The high end customs weren't something I felt comfy to possibly messing up the finish . Combined with. My job got easier and I was more in demand when I learned how to put perfume on pigs . (which way too many musicians were on instrument or vocals). So now that I'm retired I figure I can make myself sound better than I am just as easy ! Old Stones , Keith was magic with only 5 and openG maybe a little Thorogood and Gibbons for desert. Mostly just for shits and grins . I'm currently collaborating with a key player writing songs about clams. Real serious stuff 😜It's true I tell ya ! I don't sleep with it like some do if that's what you're worried about ... besides there's two of them and I only have a single bunk.πŸ€”
  20. Hey guys he can't go back and change the story now , this is the real part remember ? Or CAN he ? hmmmmm GM , you're not one of those alien fellas come here to mine our planet arrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ya ? 🧐
