I celebrated getting my silver umax a month or more ago by breaking my collarbone and four ribs. Wooden ladder broke while filling bird feeder so I have been chomping at the bit to get out hunting. Been disappointed so far with pop tops and crushed beer cans, nails and assorted metal at a couple camps around my place on Island Lake. Remembered an old fire tower I went to as a kid that has been torn down now and took my trusty atv, blue, and checked it out today. I know I threw a coin off of it back in 67. Found a real nice condition 44D wheatie that was laying an inch or so under the gorund.
I did a little dance, sang a little tune and everything will be allright tonite!!
Now if I can just heal some more and get Thompy up here I can learn from experience. All noises sound the same, I make big enough piles to bury a groundhog and there is never enough dirt ot put back as I took out. lol. It hurts to bend over but I am addicted through and through....
