I went to a new spot and thought it would be a good one. Not long after I got there I found a button back. Soon after that a couple bullets. Within a half hour I had 2 bullets, a few rivets and a button back. I thought wow this is going to be a good day maybe I found a good spot. 3 hours later I had a button back, 2 bullets and a few rivets. Man talk about disappointed.

I know what you mean, brother. But the times I aint expecting to find much and do real good or am surprised makes up for those bad times.Like the time I found these. I was looking on the perimiter of a small battle field here in Arkansas, looking in places I hoped other folks hadnt hunted and found 7 seated quarters, 2 half dimes and 23 dimes. All the coins were seated except for one dime and it was an 1836 one. Dates went from 1836 to 1860. Also found a "squared" up 3 ringer with 'em all so I know they fell out of a soldiers poke as he was trying to get away from the battle. There's more bad days than there are good ones but when I left the house that day I left just to kill a little time. But every now and then you have a good one and those you aint gonna forget. Keep plugging away and dont let it get you down...d2

Some days I find good stuff right off the bat and then...nothing else. Or I will go back to a site that I found good relics and ...nothing. Its almost like fishing. If I catch a nice fish on the first cast, then I know the rest will have lock jaw. But... if you keep trying, chances are you will find more of the good relics that we seek. Check out my post below. I tried this field twice and didn't find anything promising but I went back again because I just knew there had to be relics there and sure enough, they are there. Optimism and determination are assets that relic hunters must have. Keep swingin'!

hi jmorgan, i believe we've all had days and sites like that. but like a couple of the fellas said, the good days outweigh the bad. there's an old trick you can try - jack your sens. up as far as conditions will let you, then reduce your discrim. sure, you'll dig more iron, but those settings will help you detect deeper " whisper targets" especially if you go slow. expand your search area, i hope your're using headphones. i'm sure there's more stuff there, it's just gonna take a little more to get it all. make sure you have good hot batteries too. you might be surprised what comes out then. good luck, and hh,
