Today, the sun is shining and it is 40 degrees out. Time to pull out the shorts and tank top.
NOT!!!!!
But it is really nice out! I decided to go out in the front yard and see if the ground was somewhat soft. I put my shovel to the grass, pushed down and the shovel didn't move. I thought to myself
CRAP!!!!! It will probably be another month at least till I will be MDing. Man I can't wait that long, but I will have to. When my taxes come, I plan on buying a Fisher F5.
I have a garrett 250 right now. But I want a machine that has the numbered read out and the tones.
And I have heard by you guys that this is a good intermediate machine. I thought about going to a Fisher F70. But the F5 seems to be just as good for $150.00 bucks less.

So I will just sit here and enjoy looking at the finds that the rest of you produce in you hunts.
HUNT ON!
My time will come sooner or later!!

The ground is nice and soft here in Missouri what with all the snow earlier then the warmer weather over the last few days. I could practically stick my trowel deep enough with one arm to tickle a Chinamans toes.

Really? You think the F70 is actually worth the extra $150.00 bucks???
