As many of you know, my cousin Mike (aka Michelob) and I try to get together twice a year for a week of hunting. He comes down to Missouri in the spring and I go to Minnesota in the fall. Well, I know it isn't officially spring yet, but cabin fever was just too strong this year for Michelob so we moved up the hunt a few weeks and had the week of 2/27 thru 3/6 this year.
As always we had a great time and found our fair share of goodies. We got in several hunts with Ray-Mo and a hunt with several members of my local club. We were both lucky enough to find silver, injuns, old nickles, and a few Civil War bullets. We even got to spend a little time at the gun range to Mike could shoot my AR rifle with he sure did enjoy.
Here is a pic of my silver for the week
In our contest we have, a couple of those did not count because I found them while waiting for his plane to arrive. The official count was Bob--15 and Mike--17. He beat me by only 2 silvers but crushed me in quality. Hopefully he will be able to post his finds today so I wont spoil them here although there is a sneak peak in the video below
