GeorgeinSC said:I started two years ago at the age of 71. I had been interested in detecting for many years but knew absolutely nothing about the various detectors and did not know anyone who detected. Brother in law introduced me to the hobby and the rest is history. A "Gentleman" from church was bad mouthing me to a new couple and he made the statement that he thought that I was addicted to metal detecting. Like that was some kind of something bad or illegal. At my age the exercise I get from this hobby in invaluable. Keeps my arthritic joints somewhat limber and functional. Love this Hobby. Just wish i had started 50 years ago.
