New, But not New - Columbus, Ohio

[MickeyMaguire]

Hi Gang:

I am Mickey Maguire. I used to participate here many years ago. I did a lot of writing for Bounty Hunter when Mickey Cochran (rest his soul) was still working for them. I used to answer a lot of questions on BH products back then. I had the BH Land Star, Tracker IV, Time Ranger, the Discovery 3000 and 1000, before that, I swung a Tesoro Bandito. These days, I sold all and bought a Garrett Ace250. So, here I am and I am looking forward to getting to know you.

Welcome back Mickey

Thanks, Jeff. Have you ever checked out the area around Lehigh Tannery? There is an old foundation on the East Side (town name) of the river where the tannery used to operate. It was there in the days of the Revolution according to some accounts.

If you get a chance, Lehigh Tannery is right off exit 41 I-80 just east of White Haven.

I was thinking below me in Lehigh county.

I do believe 80 is allot closer then Lehigh county. Thanks !

Morgantown... my great, great, great, great, great, great, great-grandfather (Frederick Ice) is buried under the Cheat Lake in Morgantown. If you know the marker for Ice's Ferry, that's the site. He and his brother Andrew had a trading post north of the Cheat River on the Monongahela.

How did you feel about the tracker IV? I have one myself.

The bh was doing great until this season now I'm having problem with the ground balance.
Looking at the Garrett ace 250 to replace it
