Another reason I dont care for "Diggers"

Another reason I don't care for "Diggers"

Besides all the juvenile antics, ridiculous hoopla, and unfounded speculation on targets, they are detecting areas that the rest of wouldn't stand a chance in hi** of obtaining permission to hunt. I YOU like it, watch it. I'm opting out.

Dang, I hate the diggers.

They still have not called me for a guest appearance.

Listen boy's... every time I make a great find, you know, juice, roundness, siv... anything good I wet myself. It's phunny as all get out. When I find gold I wet myself and get uncontrollable hiccups.

That should really boost the ratings.

How long do I gotta sit by this phone anyhow?

It's CIV (Civil War Artifacts)

Thats why they don't invite you! LOL

 

[G.I.B.]

Siv is the way we'uns here in the south pronounce it. We don't cotton to the yankee way's.

The reality is... Nobody uses those terms in the metal detecting world... That I know of...

Nectar.... Really?

Wish they talked more about equipment and techniques.

You don't like the canned " grunt ding grunt ding" that every target has no matter what the size or composition?

 

[G.I.B.]

Wish they talked more about equipment and techniques.

Move coil slowly back and forth just above the soil.

Use overlapping sweeps.

Listen for beeping sounds.

Dig where beeping sounds happened.

Refill hole.

Throw trash in proper receptacle.

Post picture of finds on TN.

Cash in jewelry and coins.

Buy better detector.

Repeat previous two steps over and over and over.

DAMN IT!

I knew I was forgetting something... So were supposed to dig where it beeps?

This is a HISTORY Show guys!!! ...

The metal detectors for the most part are the "Equipment" used to uncover the lost artifacts in these old historic sights which in turn are turned over to those historical societies.

It's like getting mad if your a crab fisherman and Deatliest Catch just talks about the places they fish and what they catch instead of the equipment they use, how to use it, who makes the equipment, and how the fisherman act on deck .... WHO CARES ... it's fun to watch .. IT'S TV!!!

I would assume in turn for letting these crazy guys and The National Geographic Channel hunt these locations they spend most of ALL the extra free time during the show in talking more of the history about the location, the people involved, and the outcomes etc. etc. .... this is the deal they probably set up with these historical sights as well ... It's a 30 min show guys, more needs to go into the finds and history of the location and NOT in the tools they are using to accomplish this task. I would like to see more of the other but that is really not what the show is for.

If you want a "Metal Detecting Show" then Youtube is your friend .... this basically is a History Program over anything else and that's all.

They are not on TV to instruct you on how to detect, listen for tones (though they do a teeny tiny bit of that on telling you it's a slammin hit ...LOL), teach you detecting etiquette, or tell you what to buy (cause the answer will just be Garrett, it's a sponsor, that's how this or anything else in the world works, we talk about "sponsors" around here all the time right?) ... a show like that wouldn't last past the pilot episode!

And come on guys, just remember one thing ..... IT'S A DAMN TV SHOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well hello Falcon. I see you are posting on this thread again.....

Well hello Falcon. I see you are posting on this thread again.....

I CAN'T STOOOOPPPP !!!

Everyone stop posting so I can stop contributing beating this dead horse to a pulp

 

[Treasure_Hunter]

It's a TV show just like this is a thread, a viewer can change the TV channel if they don't like the program and if someone doesn't like a thread they can change the channel........

I don't like show so I don't watch, if someone likes to watch that is their business...

I quit watching all metal detecting shows again .. I watched diggers last month only because they were in Pa . but it did nothing for me… NOW when is "AMERICAN SAVAGE" coming back "BOOM BABY"..

 

[austin]

Love it or hate it, it did it's job. All these posts prove people watch, some buy in and use the terms and the ratings keep the network and the sponsors happy. If it matters, I have watched worse shows. Like TH says, change the channel...

Well you should know by now that all the metal detecting TV shows are jokes… There is not one good one on TV..

 

[GranvilleATPro]

There could be another dozen metal detecting shows on tv and just as many people will like, as well as hate, same as they currently do with diggers.
