Got out today with Donnie B. again back to where he got the fugio last Sunday , we hit it last week for only a couple of hours . He definitely wanted to go back and I had eyed a particular field that I wanted to hit as I suspected it had goodies hiding around . There are two cellars at this place here is the larger one .

As soon as I got into the field I hit a target , this was strange because every time I stuck the pin pointer in the hole it went off but nothing was at the bottom of the hole :confused: then after a few confusing seconds I see it suspended on a tiny root :duh::lol: a watch winder

I hope you all can still get out and swing , this might have been my last hunt due to a snow storm on the way here . Hopefully it won't be too many inches , stay warm my friends and thanks for reading.
