I went out for a short hunt and tried a ball field. One thing I did learn when it beeps there is something there. I just can't get over the amount of stuff I have walked over the past years. Sometimes finding 2, 3, 4 tabs, caps or??? in a hole. With all that in the ground I just can't believe that there isn't a lot of good targets being masked out? Anything that beeped I dug. I was digging 6" and more on some of the targets. I went in back of the back stop and along the 3rd base line at the fence to 3rd base and called it a day. In back of the back stop there was a lot of trash and that is where I picked up nickels, dimes and pennies just sitting on the grass. Dug a lot of targets and it was fun and a good learning experience. I really wonder how many good target are hidden? I am using Tabman's settings just Disc out foil sports bottle cap. Pictures are good and trash dug today..... Thanks for stopping in and I'll leave the light on.... Happy Trails......Z

You are really getting in shape and endurance back up huh? Good work!
It is about what is in the ground that is interesting? I can metal detect free. I get to see, feel and own it right after I dig it up. It burns up time and keeps me in shape (30 pounds less) and has surprises that sometimes are far better than anything I could buy. It is one heck of a hobby. No I have never paid for a detector yet. I keep buying those newfangled detectors that tell me more and more what not to dig. And of course I get frustrated because it lies to me often. So when the Compadre beeps it just says, it is up to you, there is something there? Thanks for kind words of encouragement ....Z
