Tomorrow I begin a new study

[steve in so la]

I will start a 1 year study tomorrow concerning detecting. I have these 12 places that have produced gold/silver/lots of coins over the years (out of a couple hundred spots). They are better producers than all the other places I have. I have grouped them into A,B,C and will do one set each month . So every 3 months I will have done all three. Tomorrow I will start with A.

What started me thinking was recently I hit a few of them and had good luck, my records showing I had done them just 3-4 months ago. So maybe they will produce more often than the 1-2 times per year that I have been doing them. Also, maybe I'll get some goodies that others would have beaten me to

If this pans out successfully then we should know to go to our hot spots more often. I don't remember anyone ever doing something like this so it should be interesting at least. We'll see. I am posting this and any results only on this forum. Steve in so az

always someone going out everyday and hitting the playgrounds and etc. Too many with newer Detectors also! When my former husband and I went out often during the mornings, we found some nice stuff...but was in the 1980's when a lot more was out there to be found....silver, rings and so on! I wish I could get out more often and in the early mornings but just cannot any more. No one to go with either and gas prices too high and car too old! Oh, woe is me....NO, not really, as I have the Lord and the Lord is Good!!

God Bless!

It will be interesting what you find out. I have never documented it but know that I have sites that produce better than others.

but you and I think too much the same as I have been doing something like that awhile
I have a excell spredsheet with all the parks in town listed. In one colum I put in the date I last detected it so I can see how long its been, weather I should go more often or less often.
Good hunting my friend
