Getting Better

[medallion]

I just got into MDing, and have found a few things, mostly pennies and a GM 50 millionth car made medal (Caddilac Division) that seems to be from 1954. I'm in mid thumb of Michigan, and I am finally digging plugs more than grand canyons, have my machine set for my yard but still need some discrimination onthe shores of Lake Huron. I guess I wanted to reminfd new people to keep digging and reading over and oer how to hunt. I rediscover something new each read, and I get better by using the detector, testing it, and TRUSTING my relationship with it. Of course my wife burst my bubble when I was detecting today (not really) but she found a nice 1926 wheatie IN HER PURSE. Argh!!!

It's good to hear you are enjoying our hobby , and I know
whatcha mean about them wifey's bursting bubbles ,when my
wife goes detecting with me she uses the pin pointer on my digs
and SEE'S stuff laying on the ground better than I dig sometimes
but its a lotta fun. One thing I found with practice is not only learning
my detector , but better pin pointing and smaller holes , it just all seems to come together with practice.
Keep swingin and show us your finds

I eyeball a lot of stuff too...

Glad you are enjoying yourself and learning... hopefully you'll keep at it and you find the "big one" - which, very few folks ever do.

Welcome and happy hunting.
