    Some variety from Barberville

    Had a 10 hunt slump so in my frustration I gassed up the truck and headed to Barberville where I've had pretty good luck in the past. Hunted public stuff, got turned down on a private. Hunted about 5 hrs. on Sat. and got the barbie, v, buff, and the merc and a couple wheats. Sun I hunted another...

    Been in a bad slump last 8 days..... Landed a 1912 house today and had high hopes for some redemption? 3.5hrs on the front yard and pretty much zippo.... Still hope sides and back might turn up something but ain't lookin good at this point. Might have to head back to the Big City if things...

    My very 1st LC...!!!!!

    And of course I just had to ding it...lol NEVER EVER figured I'd dig an LC especially in my Podunk town? Town wasn't even established until late 1880's. Was using TTF along with the 6" today for about an hr. and re-hunting a right-of-way that I've done many times before in MTC and also with...

    had some luck with TTF

    Went back to the old house I'm working and slapped on the 6" and re-hunted some areas in MTC with no luck after 30 min. Switched over to TTF using the relic pattern and went back over some already hunted areas again and picked up a few more. I can honestly say the Merc and the 1919 wheat have...

    2 silver

    Landed a 1907 place.....best I could do after 5hrs (long hunt for this old man). Place is trashy and may force me to learn TTF. Tomorrow I'll slap on the 6" and see if that helps me navigate the trash (iron) better while in conductive (?)...if not, a crash course in TTF. You can see the nice...

    V-Nickel

    Last weeks finds from 5 different locations from Idaho & Montana. Couldn't get into the oldies last week but redeemed myself with the V and a 1909 (no S) from a park in Idaho that I've never had any real success at, even 20+ yrs ago. Tuff park and hardly any high tones so I thought I'd try and...
