My first gold with the 4000

[Grubstake]

Your very luck, to have a new detector, on my income, I can't even afford a knob off of one. I would sure like to have a 3500, but I see no way in the future to get one. I think if I had a newer detector, I could get more gold. But thats the way the chips fall sometimes. I just have to keep wishing. My wife and I are going to have a very poor Christmas this year. Too many deaths in the family and such. I'm glad to see you get the latest and greatest equipment. One day I'll get over the BIG one. And get me a newer detector. If it wasn't for my uncle, I wouldn't even have the 2200sd. I would still be useing a Lobo ST. Take care Good luck. Grubstake

Looks like we

Thats Very Nice Impacto, I know Pat Keene, he used to come to Bagby, when I managed the campground, Use to test new dredge dezines up here. I could tell you a few stories about that.

HE did1 Ha! Ha! Grubstake
