    Well, some days it gold, other days it's just the fool's gold. Still, a cool button and what looks like part of a pocket watch chain. Regardless of finds, always good when one can get out swinging!

    I was thinking if you go strictly for the target ID as an event, then probably keep all targets at about the same depth, maybe 4-6 inches. As for which targets, I was thinking using something along...

    As for a really fun event, with no digging needed. Have a test bed layout with maybe a...

    Great seeing those new machines waking up old sites again! Only a few years ago 12-16 hours swinging was the norm for me, but now I'm down to maybe 8 hours on a good day before the fatigue really...

    That's certainly a museum piece! But, I really question how that old Garrett machine worked being mounted to an aluminum pole by those big metal angle brackets?

    Working for someone else, probably not much outside fast food. But you can always become self employed and set your own hours. My plan is to run a videography business. Shooting video for commercials...
