How many of us are 65 or older, and still digging?

Me me me me me me!!! 70
 
My dad, who doesn't use a computer, is 83 and digging away.
 
Maybe I mostly play with these 6 detectors. Back is bad and I can't handle my favorite detectors MLs. I have already sold the MLs.
 
I am 71 and still dig two days a week, mind you I think the A T Pro has given me a new

lease of life LOL I will be out tomorrow for a few hours "LOVE IT"
 
73 and still have a way to go. Metal detectors are like airplanes and women, I never flew one I didn't love,
some are just better than others. Happy hunting to all of us.
 
I certainly qualify by chronological age, but mentally still think I am a kid. LOL :detecting: I still like to play outside and this new toy has me doing some healthy exercise. I am detecting with the AT Pro every time I can get away from the "Honey Do's" list. I average every other day for about 3 hours at a time. Guess I am a Happy Camper (Detector-Player)! :detecting:

I'll be the big 67 this May, try to get out ever second day in the summer..

Stable of 7 detectors to chose from:twodetecting::twodetecting::twodetecting::detecting:
 
69 here and wife is 65 and we both go out about 15 days or more a month during the warm months. Ice has just gone out on the lakes so am looking forward to another season of metal detecting.

69 in August. Just starting out. I figured after retiring I had to have something to occupy my time so hoping to have some fun this summer...:clapping:
 
I'm one month away from 75, lost count of the number of detectors I've used since 1968, but I still love the hobby as much as ever.--Wade
 
Just got my new Raven 25 digger & yesterday a new Garrett Pin Pointer.I'll be 73 in Sept. Hope I can wear these new toys out. An AT PRO is next on the list. Never give up!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I'm 70 years old, started detecting in 1968. Using a new AT Pro and like it a lot. Sure wish they would start selling that earphone adaptor so I could use some lightweight earphones this summer.
