    Sundays meager finds

    got out with Todd sunday to a couple sites.they were hammered very well but snuck out a couple items.
    I used my MXT All Pro for a good part of the hunt.a couple colonial tombac buttons,a iron shoe buckle chape,a small musketball and a jew's or jaw harp & top half of a crotal bell.
    can't win em all

    Looks like better than "meager" finds to me I consider that a decent day in my neck of the woods!

    The buttons and tombacs are still nice finds. The first time I got out with Drew the majority of my finds were those buckles like you got.

    ...that's what I was gonna say. "This is considered a bad day for you? Don't be tryin to make the rest of us feel ours ain't good enough"

    At least you found some keepers Dave. Love the mouth harp. Just getting out helps cure the itch though doesn't it? Always appreciative that you take time to include a few generic pics of your hunting sites on your posts. Puts your finds in context.
