    Past 2 hunts

    Hi all,
    Got out for a couple short hunts. One site is an early 1800s park which has gone through many changes over the past nearly 200 years. Unfortunately much has been filled, built on, or paved over. Targets are there, but mostly too deep to catch especially through the trash. Two larger targets were found around the 18 to 24 inch mark to give an idea. The other site was the zoo once again which gave up 3 more wheats including a 1914.
