Great year Mike! Dont forget to keep the deus charged a little.
I know you didn't get out as much as you would have liked.
Nice to see it all in one post.
Hey just think, its almost the Holidays, then OFF TO ENGLAND WE GO!!!
did you see Tones last post?
Cant wait. But I still have a little detecting to do around here still.. I didn't here any one ring the bell yet???

Thanks George. I did get out quite a bit (it's never enough though haha), but next year I need to focus on new sites. Almost all of these finds came from places I had already detected numerous times. The Deus brought them back to life, but pretty quiet now.

I saw Tones post, it's gonna be so freaking awesome when we dig over there. It's going to be exhausting but I'm up to the challenge and can not wait!

I can't wait to see your 2015 totals post...it's going to be crazy hahaha!

Great post up of your totals of the year. :occasion14:

There's one big thing about going over to hunt in England and that's fly in the day before as it makes the world of difference getting the body rested up before hunting.

Thanks Pepper. I believe we fly in around noon, have the evening to relax, and then hunting the next morning. Hope the jet lag isn't too bad.

George, haha the treadmill is a great idea. At this point my job is mega physical so I'll be in shape, but the detector muscles might be weak. I just hope I don't forget how to use the DEUS between now and then

That's has been an issue of sitting all winter without detecting, it takes a little bit to tune the ears back up again. For being in shape, well you'll have some soreness by the third day.:)

Congrats on some really cool finds. 2014 was a winter that reminded me of how bad some of our winters can be.
I forget how severe winter can be in some places. Hope you get to detect in England. Thanks for posting.

It's always a sad and somber occasion when one's season is over.:crybaby2: Looking at your finds, you had a very good 2015 season. :occasion14: You sure pulled some quality finds. Now's when the research begins for the 2016 season. :hello2:

Thanks, yes winter sucks. However with the "super El NiΓ±o" this year it seems winter will be short. A couple years ago the ground was un-diggable from Nov 14th to the very end of April...that was rough!

As for England, I am going only to dig. I had some friends asking if I was going to be able to do some site seeing...the only thing I will see is the dirt and my detector swinging over it haha!

Yes time for research is right. The DEUS has sucked all my old sites dry it seems. I have a few leads on good spots, hopefully they will work out.
