15 second hunt

[DennisH]

That's right, a 15 SECOND hunt. I drove to a near by town to hunt a old park, a well hunted out park, for a planned two hour or so hunt. The plan was hunt till I was hungry and then stop at Pizza Hut to get supper go home and eat.

So I get to the park, put my gear on and double step to about where I left off on my last hunt and get a nice nickel hit in the first swings of the E-trac. As you all know those nice nickel hits are almost always just beaver tails but because I have found 1 V nickel and 6 Buffs (2 in one hole for the first time) in this park it was a no brainer I have to dig it. Before I can identify the nickel and put the plug back my battery goes dead. I had no spare battery with me because I just put the freshly charged stick in the day before and put my spare on the charger.

I was sure one of my rechargable battiers was toast!! Luckly I am just a fool because I must of mixed up the two and put the fully charged battery back on the charger. :blush: oh well, better then a toasted battery. Good news is the Nickel is a 1911 Liberty. Number two from this park I just starting hunting this fall.

Digging V's is always cool. Hope you can get some more from that park. Congrats

That has to be the most productive fifteen second hunt I've ever seen |:cheering: Congratulations on the old nickel!

Well let's see, one keeper every 15 seconds, that equates to 240 keepers per hour.

Now we know what to expect when you return to that park with a fully charged battery. lol

Seriously, congrats on the V Nickel! That's the best 15 second hunt I've ever heard of!
