Barber Woods

[makton]

Got out for my first hunt of the year yesterday with Jon and broke in my Explorer II with a 5 silver day
Started off slow while I pretty muched just watched Jon pull out Barber after Barber while I was trying to find silver with my
probe left on for a while . Took a break for 5 minutes to enjoy the sun and watch some ducks playing on the river when I decided to hit the side of hill which rewarded me with 3 Rosies and 42 Washington within 15 minutes. Needless to say I was pretty happy as I didn't score a single silver last year at all.

Ten minutes later I got a short 1 way signal that sounded sweet and out of the hole I was rewarded with my first Barber dime - 1916S.

Total for the day was 3 Rosies - 52, 60 and 63, 1916S Barber dime, 42 Washington and 5 wheaties - 36, 44, 55 and 57.

Thanks for looking!

Now that's the way to break that unlucky streak! And you got the gear to get more.

Looks like it's all shiny going forward!
