    What is better than a Timex that keeps on ticking? :wiggle:

    A GoPro that keeps on clicking! The below pictures tell it all. EXCEPT... That after finding the GoPro, my next two targets were RINGS, one stainless steel and the other tungsten carbide. Also I have spent about $35 on a case with new (clear) lens and adapters so my grandson can use the GoPro...

    Study on FIND RATE, not Lost Rate

    Although IF the Loss Rate (See KinTN's posting) in specific areas were known our chances of finding targets could be increased IF we choose the location with a higher Loss Rate; information that might just have too many variables to be calculated by 99.99% of us.
