10 Silver, 69 Wheats, New Hunt Video!! "UPDATE: Video 2 Just Added"
Hello Fellow Tnetters,
From following this weekend's posts, it sure looks like many of you are making some great finds out there. Hope everyone who's been couped up in their homes for the past few months due to weather can get out there and enjoy this great hobby!! Last week here in S. CA was very beautiful. It was in the 70's, with partly cloudy skies. On Tuesday, I went out on a group hunt with a couple of my weekly hunting buds. My buddy, Jon(goldenapples) brought his video camera and captured quite a bit of film from many of our digs that day. It was a good day for all. I ended up with 3 silver (though not as old as I was hoping for), along with 12 wheats. All were captured on film. I ended the week with 10 silvers (9 dimes, including a '16S merc and 1 sterling religious pendant), along with 69 wheaties (teens through 50's).
The film is a compilation of some of our digs. I want to thank Jon for taking the time to film and edit this compilation. I know it took hours to edit and upload all the clips. He did a great job!!!
He said all the clips were too long to fit on one video, so when I get a couple other individual clips from him, I will post them here for all to view. This vid is about 17 minutes long, so sit back when you have time and enjoy the film. Also, for you SE 
's, the film will provide you with a better understanding of the way deep coins sound and what to listen for when you're out there hunting in the turf. It also shows that some of those deep coins that sound like silver don't always turn out to be silver 
, but you gotta dig them.
Thanks for reading and watching the film!!

I like my Lesche around roots but for open areas I use a "guardless" wide-nosed digger that stabs 7" and can tip a 3" X 3" plug (infinate length on the far side) and then pull a loaf of soil out of that hole. Not sure why they felt the need to put such a guard on the Lesche. Blast shield for mines?
