Hello all,

I'm new to metal detecting though I've wanted to do it since I was young. I am located in Pepperell, MA, on the border of New Hampshire. I recently purchased a Garrett Ace 250. I did a search today in a stream (brrr!!) and found an oxen shoe!

I hope to do this hobby for many years to come and I would love to connect with fellow enthusiasts in my area.

Thanks for the website!

Here's a good place to begin here on TN:

At the bottom of the main page you'll find a Forum of "Supporting Vendors." Many of their websites have Q&A's and other tips to help you get started.

Have fun and keep at it!

Good luck to all,

The Old Bookaroo, CM

Ox shoes are really cool - I like to clean them up when I find them!
