I got out a few times since last week. Lots of wheats and a couple for the silver pile.

I am understanding the sounds of the Explorer a little better. The smooth silver tone is becoming more familiar... as opposed to the choppy silver tone which has been leading me to rusty iron.

Nice weather has finally hit the midwest. The past month has been hot and extremely humid here in Iowa. Today was a very nice change of pace. I just might try to sneak out for a few hours at sun up tomorrow.

Good luck on your next hunt!
