5-17 finds

[willie d]

I did my usual 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. shift today.

Weather lady said 60% chance of rain. So, I didn't expect to see much of the sun today. I opted not to use sunscreen. It sprinkled twice before noon and then it was wall to wall sun.

By noon I had 3 rings.

The leatherman was not far from the rings and right on top of the sand. Retail about $40.00

The majority of the finds were found in the dry sand.

Finds straight from the pouch


51 coins = $ 5.70


Silver and garnet ring



Shark, dog and 2 mood rings


Tabs and glass

Why don't you use the harness with bungee? I can hunt from dawn to dusk with no pain using my Excal and WOT or my Sovereign and SEF 15" x 18" coil if I use the harness with them.....

Thanks miket. Like Treasure_Hunter said get yourself a bungee harness. You can buy one or make your own. I made mine and after swinging my Sov Gt w/WOT coil for 6 hours my arm feels just fine.

i like being able to set it down if i have to..i tried once hooking the control box to my belt making it lighter but it`s a pain in the butt getting set-up that way. I`m afraid of dropping the control box and cracking it open. (already sent it in 3 times) So I just leave it as one unit and hunt until I get sore.
plus i use a hand scoop and have to bend a lot to dig and I need freedom to move without the wires or straps getting in the way. I mostly hunt in the dry and can`t see carrying/dragging anything else..

i think i do pretty good the way i learned to do it and i enjoy it - thanks and happy hunting!

WTG Willie D! You did very well. It sure beats those hunts when you don't find much at all. Congrats on your great day.
