This morning I was out by a soccer field I have hunted many times this year. It is hard with this being sports season, to find a time when no one is using these fields, but this morning I was the only one. After a couple of hours hunting I came away with a fair amount of clad. These are the same fields I have never found a ring in, they keep calling me back, but only to tease. However, they have not won yet.

Wow you have been finding lots of stuff at the soccer field!!
All I found today was 4 bullets, hunted only for 15min. Too dry here.

Hey Dave, at least ya got some clad out of it! You are running out of blank spots on your map. Looks like you're going to have to go over spots you've already done. Hope they are replenishing for ya. Good luck my friend.

Yes what Mona said.
Only, you know when rains or you finish hunting the whole field you will need to start over again.

Clad is always good as it's free money. Sticking with it and will have to give you that ring sooner or later.

As soon as sports season is over I plan on starting all over on all of the sports fields I have done this year, if I don't move to the coast. Right now they are all being replenished with all the practicing and games going on. This field for one, is being used more than it ever has in the past, due to it being new. That ring, like the needle in the haystack, is there. It's just making me work for it.

Nice haul! I think you will find a nice ring there in probably a few more hunts.
