Well I haven't been out swinging in about 4 months with the family life and all but today was different…Had revisited a field that I had a gut feeling that there were more goodies there…It paid off with a 8 pound cannonball (hopefully marked when I clean it), musket balls, coins, buttons and what is left of a pewter whistle…Looks like I'm back in business, as my last hunts in the Spring weren't too productive….

Well that's quite a welcome back, to get out there and dig something like that! Congratulations on the killer iron find! Hope life will allow you to be able to hunt more this fall. I've certainly missed reading your outstanding posts.

Best Wishes,

Buck
