do you say - "I metal detect" or "I am a treasure hunter"
I cringe when my partner goes to ask permission and says
"Hi - my friend and I are treasure hunters and we'd like to get permission to hunt your land"
I usually will say - "Hi - I'm into metal detecting and would like to get permission to hit your land"
Don't mind using the term between other hunters and on forums - but was wondering if
a lot of guys use the term "treasure hunter" all the time to those outside the hobby
I just think if you walked up to my door and said you were a treasure hunter - that I would think
"Wow - there's treasure on my land?"
even saying your a relic hunter could get eyebrows a raising
Just curious how you present yourself
