I finally had a chance to get out and start the 2015 season today. Smittyman came up from Charlotte and we did some driving around and door knocking. We got permission to hunt on a vacant lot that used to be a gravel parking lot many years ago. Now it is grass covered but when you get down an inch or so you hit the gravel.

The first silver, the mercury dime came just off the gravel area in beautiful Carolina red clay. Both Steve and I weren't sure it was silver at first as the dirt was really clinging to it. The Washington quarter was in the gravel lot and paid the price with lots of scratches. But I don't mind at all.

I hunted today using a new program given to me by Vino and although it will take some getting used to. Once I learn to swing slower and be more patient I believe my good finds will increase. So thank you Vino for sharing the program with me. Please don't tell Tom!!!

Had to get out today as we're about to be hit with a cold front for the next few days. Temps in the mid teens at night.

Thanks for looking and have fun hunting if you're still able to get out.

Oops Beez... you meant to write "...please DO tell Tom..."

Very nice finds. Congrats on the silvers. I sure wish that I could have been with you two, however, someone must work to pay for those SS benefits you all receive! GL&HH.

Just PM me the Deus program, so that I don't have to bother Vino.

Nice coins! I'm a new Deus user and have been just using #3 Deus Fast getting use to it. I know there are hidden powers in this machine I have yet to tap into :thumbsup: Great job! We just got around 5" of snow after it was 63 on Sunday :BangHead:

Hey great start to 2015 bud! At this rate you'll have about 800 silvers lol. Bout time Vino was useful. I gotta hand it to him(reluctantly) he knows his machines. Glad you got a new set up that sounds as though it may be good in the iron. That's where the good stuff hides

Heckfire! Why not just share the program up for all your friends here? That way, we can all get
busy hunting out every inch of ground. We can always take up golf this summer. ;)

Nice finds Beez!

I can't speak for anyone but me, but the benefits I receive are MY OWN monies being given back to me! They took it from me and now are giving it back! No matter what you think! ;)

I gave them enough to allow my being able to hunt now. YOU, give them yours!

As I said before, it's YOUR turn in the barrel! Enjoy!

congrats on the silvers, sometimes change is hard to do but when the rewards are as such, you tend to work at it a little harder. hope you are able to get out there and learn, it is about to get really cold for a lot of us.

You are sooooooo sweeeeeeeet George :-)

He is really sweet! He took the time to talk me through setting up the program step by step and trust me I am not a very technologically savvy guy.
