Some of my finds from the hunt..

**lucky1777** · Oct 16, 2006, 10:25 AM

Just wanted to start by saying I had a very good time. I would like to thank JD, his wife and all that helped put this on. I would especially like to thank the land owners, you could not ask for a nicer couple. My day started a little slow. All I was finding was pieces of lead from the molds they used to make the bullets. Then I got a great signal on my MXT. I dug and dug and still couldn't find it. Then I believe it was Burdie that came to my rescue with his pinpointer. We found it a very nice square nail. So I figured it was time to search another spot. I did manage to find half of a horse shoe and a whatzit (that I will post so PBK can tell me what it is). After dinner things started to get better. I first found the ring and then about 3 feet away my first button. Needless to say I was now grinning ear to ear. After cleaning the button so I could make out the eagle I headed back out. I think I was at it for about a half hour and out comes the other eagle. Wow I couldn't believe I had found two. Well thats how my day went, couldn't ask for a better day.

Glad to help a fellow MD hunter. Nice visiting with you at the camp. I was the one eating all the time.

Congrats on those buttons Lucky. I hope we meet again.

Sweet digs my friend. All 3 great finds. Nice to meet you and your family. Not much in the morning, but your luck really changed quickly...I guess that is why you are lucky!

Dang, talked to Lucky at lunch and he was telling me about the great barb wire and iron whatzits he found. Come back for the drawings and he is showing off bullets and buttons! You didn't hear the rules at the beginning of the hunt ?? One button per person. I didn't find one, so you can just mail one to me

The one on the left would be fine.

Hiya Lucky,

I think I should had held on to that elephant till after the hunt. It brought you good luck with your awesome finds. It was a pleasure meeting you and the family.
