I started when I was 14 then cars, girls and alcohol showed up and it took me 20 years to get back into the swing. Lol

Hi hersheyblitz55; The reason you are not out partying like others is because it tells me and everyone else here that your a young man with a good head on your shoulders and you realize that you don't need the FALSE sense of security and enjoyment to make your day an enjoyable one. From me others here to you, We are proud of you. You have a whole future ahead of you ok so go and explore it with gusto. Don't worry. Guys like you do and will meet like minded girls who are pretty and smart as well. I know, I married one ok. Congratulations to you for avoiding one of Lifes major pitfalls ok. Feel free to PM me any time ok. Now get out there and dig with true Pride ok.
By the way, there are a LOT of folks here that are your age ok. Don't forget to Post the Pictures. PEACE:RONB :headbang:

Welcome to the forum Hersheyblitz! It's awesome you want to hunt instead of Party!
The real party starts when you are out in nature, in the now, doing something you love to do!
It doesn't get too much better than that!
Best of luck!

I'm 16....... At hart. If you ask my wife!! Anyway. Good for you. Do what you like to do. Not what others expect you to do. I'm really 47 and a lot of people think I'm crazy to be out swinging. ( md). I find it's like fishing. You never know what your gonna find. That's the thrill of the hunt!!! Only started a couple of months ago. Wish I started at your age. Good luck

Good for you. Detecting is a much better hobby than many others i can think of. My 15 yr old grandson loves detecting but he can't drive yet so he usually goes with me.

Hi hersheyblitz; The other thing is a question. How many of your friends who are partying can say they found a Colonial Coin or a gold ring or found something from the Civil War??? Keep at it and all these things will be yours as you grow in this great hobby ok. Think about it. I started when I was 11 years old and I've been detecting for 45 years now and I have done it all literally. I've found gold, I dove on shipwrecks, I've found many great things over the years but the best Treasure I have, and you will to in time, is a Peace of Mind. The memories you'll have will be your greatest treasure. Best Wishes. Keep the Posts coming ok. PEACE:RONB
