    Barber Dime Hat Trick...and a few Injuns'

    Met up with silverfix (Kennon) at one of our parks for an all day hunt.

    "Heavy D" was on the road... and the Yeti was workin'...so it was just me and Kennon for the day.

    This was my kind of hunt...a keeper at a pace of about one per hour..and they were ALL oldies.

    NO wheaties...and NO new silver.....just old stuff.

    I really had to work for everything I dug....so I really feel like I learned a little more of the SE language

    Again all the coins I dug were in the 8" to 10" range and there was a reason that each and every coin was still in the ground...and had been walked over before.

    A couple on edge...3 masked by iron...and one masked by trash...and all at nice depths.

    Kennon dug an injun and 2 v-nickels and he had to work hard too. I was impresed with his V's...and I too tried a few nickel hits...but ended up getting punked by 8 beaver tails.

    Would have been an even more awesome day if we wouldn't have had to spend a bunch of time filling in some "ham & egger's" nasty UNFILLED holes.

    Some freakin' goof left at least 10 holes with dirt piled up off to the side...AND they also left their trash next to many of the holes.

    This kind of crap really ticks me off and it ruins it for the rest of us.

    Not sure which is worse....leaving unfilled holes...or hunting without permission at a place that you know you should have it.

    It doesn't matter...cause' I make sure I don't do either one.

    I hope everyone is getting some good huntin' in while the weather is still cooperating.

    10 inch silver is something to be proud of Bryce. That is a bummer about the unfilled holes. Someone needs to teach that dude some respect. Way to go on another great day.

    A Barber dime hat trick is a tough feat to accomplish. I haven't seen too many on the forums over the years. Sweet job, Bryce, the Mr. Silver of America.
