Wow, you really hit the jackpot! I highly suspect you stumbled onto an Indian pow wow site. A camp would likely have a lot more daily items such as arrowheads, cooking items, etc. while the more decorative items would be safely stored away. Those jingle cones are a big clue to the location's use...

Hello all, I got out as promised to hunt the old brewery grounds. Unfortunately it didn't go anywhere near as good as hoped. Pretty much skunked actually, and yeah, I did find quite a few pull tabs and a couple old beer cans. I did hunt a few areas that gave a few iffy signals but it turned...

Hello all, Hope that everyone has started to finally see some warmer weather and softer ground. I'm sitting here looking at the last remnants of snow on the grass in the shady areas wondering how hard the frost is underneath and chomping on the bit to get out for my first hunt for this year...

Hello everyone! Just got some great news today. I was able to speak with the plant manager of Molson Coors here in Milwaukee and got permission to detect the brewery grounds come spring once everything thaws. As far as anyone knows it's virgin ground, and some of the buildings and yards have...

Hello all! I just got word from my employer that hopefully sometime in the next few months I will be headed down to a bit South of Charlotte for training. I've never hunted the area and would appreciate some tips, ideas of public areas to hunt, and info on any local laws I may run afoul of...

Forgot to post the car pic...lol

Hello everyone! I know it's been quite a while since I've been posting, so thought to drop an update on what I've been up to the past year or so. The start of 2020 really put me in a bad place. Lost the lease on my home suddenly (no fault of my own-owner decided to sell and gave me 30 days...

Hi all, I havent been out but once this year with the corona stuff and crazy work schedules, bad weather, etc. But I recently started a new job with Molson Coors, formerly Miller brewing. Speaking with one of the management team today, I mentioned the desire to detect the historic 1855...

Hi all, I looks like I'm headed to NE Arkansas at the end of the month for a job interview. I'll be in the Blytheville area, which is near the Mississippi river. Apparently they didn't have a lot of CW activity other than a few raids nearby. I would appreciate any tips for places to hunt in...

Hi all, I finally got out for a few hours yesterday to battle the wet parks. I tried a more modern park since it was close to home and I was dying to get out. Haven't had much opportunity lately since heavy rain always seemed to coincide with my days off. A few minutes in I was surprised...

Hey everyone! For the car guys, as promised here's a video of some track time in my Mustang. Hope you enjoy it! https://youtu.be/DqW7Txj1obs

Hi all, Been quite a while since I've posted, mostly due to the fact I haven't found anything. :dontknow: Seems like work and the weather mostly were against me getting out much this year. But on Sunday I went to a small town about an hour away with my Mustang club for a morning Cars and...

Already done! :cheesysmile:

Hey everyone! Been so much rain the past couple months the ground has been saturated and waterways flooded. Also been working a ton of extra days which seem to fall on the few sunny days. So with a few extra dollars from the overtime, I did a little shopping and ended up with a new ride as of...

Hi all! Have this Thursday through Monday off and looking to get out hunting for a change. Looking to try and get out of my general area (Milwaukee) and maybe have a chance at something older than a merc. Haven't got out much this year due to work and weather not cooperating on my few days...

I got back to the same park hoping to score more silver. Well, the first couple hours I only managed a wheaties and a bit of clad. But nearing my time to go I hit a really deep plated cross. Not long after I hit a nice 12-41 @6 inches. This netted a nice merc. Finally on board with silver! Got...

Hi all, Haven't been online much recently due to work and trying to start my videography business. (Building the website lately) But I've gotta say I've been dying to get out swinging for the past few months, and thought to give it a try Sunday since lots of the snow has melted. I found a new...

Hi all It's the Christmas season and they are all decorated up at the Milwaukee Public Museum. I took lots of video and photos, and edited it down to what I think turned out to be a pretty good film. Please excuse the bits of graininess in some of the video. The area is really dark, and lit...

Hi all, Got some bad news. The new expensive computer I bought last spring died on me. Of course it expired just after the warranty did. Lost 3 good detecting days between working on it myself, dealing with charitable tech support, and then taking it in for repair. Luckily I have a Best Buy...

I know it's probably early to be making plans, but with my work schedule I kinda have to start planning any vacation time months in advance to make sure I can get the days I need. So I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on next spring heading to the East coast?
