The hunt today,,would be classified as a relic hunt.
Super duper hard hunted site,,by myself,,,and one other gent I know of at least.
Don't know what the bigger item is,,,it is made of lead though.
The other is a musket ball,,,have found them in this area before.
Site dates back to at least mid 1700s.
A good site due to the amount of nails,,and iron,,to check a detector's performance as well as learn.
Likely no cherry hits in this particular portion of a larger site,which spans 193 acres.
A couple comments about Impact hunting in sites such as these.
My overall learning of this detector,,and starting to realize it's tendencies.
Not all nonferrous targets,this detector is capable of finding-- will be textbook hits.
Meter readings can give clues,,associated with tone,,,be it tone length,,sound,,or level(s) of claririty.
A real slicer and dicer in and around nails and iron.
Will keep plugging along,,,to see if I can start to see any more of its tendencies while looking for nonferrous targets in these kinds of places.
