Competition Hunts

Anyone else out there like the open seeded hunts?
 
I like them but don't like traveling very far and the ones close to me they quit having. You can learn a lot at them and see new equipment.
 
Guess not many people interested in these hunts. Use to go to many all over Texas and even attended one in Tennessee. Make a lot of friends, sometimes win a detector and have a lot of fun.Get to see new equipment in person.
 
A club I belonged to in another state has 2 every year at our end of the year festivities.
$75 to enter, several thousand targets planted including wheats, silver dimes, Mexican coins and a few others.
Also about 150 special prize tokens for top notch quality prizes including new detectors.
I came close to getting back my entry fee every year in the silver I found plus other prizes worth several hundred dollars on top of that.
Among those prizes are a Bill Babbs travel scoop worth about $180...a Sampson 31" digger, old coins, display cases, expensive research books gold pans and a portable gold slice.
Love these hunts, as long as you are fast enough you can make out pretty well.
