Ring to Tab Ratio?
- Thread starter wayne_etc

That's a hard question Wane????
Some places have a lot of tabs and others don't.
Some places are more likely to have a ring than
others.
It depends on where you hunt and how you hunt.
Every gold ring I have found seem to be a totally
unexpected happening. But they have been in
good places. Those places I keep learning more
about.
I do know that my ratio has increased over last
year. Last year was the first time I ever found a
gold ring and that was in September, if I remember
right.
Just a guesstimate for this year is somewhere
around 200 tabs per each gold ring.
That's gonna include a ton of other stuff. It may
seem to be just a matter of volume, but learning
to be a better hunter is helping me. But it's not
a smooth progression. I have spurts of finds and
inspirations of success. That's in the midst of
slow finds and not very productive endeavors.
It's a real hard question and will be different for
different people and the way they hunt.
It helps to have a nice light machine like a Tesoro,
but learning to use any machine is the trick.
That GOLDEN [size=x-large]P[/size]helps.
That's P for persistence.
Happy Hunting,
Tabdog

As Tabdog states "some places have a lot of tabs and others don't." That's true also for the rings. Some places just have few rings.

ok ... didn't count them all. Counted 100 tabs from the bag I am saving them in, found a condiment cup that the 100 tabs filled even with the brim. Filled the cup 8 times with a few left over. So that's about 270 tabs per ring (2 silver and 1 gold) hunting in parks, school yards and play grounds that I have found since May when I started saving this latest bag of tabs. Beach trips are different. In my experience, way more bottle caps than tabs and I think a little better ratio of rings and other jewelry to junk.
