We have members here who won some nice prizes, Ron Lord walk away with $5000 on one, I won detectors and cash several times. ...

You may pass up on chance at $5k but I dont. There were hundreds of us at the last Great Southern Shootout ion Daytona Beach.... 7 hunts over 3 days and it was a blast.....

I have never participated in an organized hunt, but I must admit the chance to win some cool prizes is attractive.

Ah yes..I remember well the stories my grandfather told me.
His grandfather would go outside and toss coins around his house and yard.
Explained that, someday, they would have "detectors". This caught on and soon everyone was doing it!
Ex wives jewelry was a favorite!
It is ALL seeded!
HEH!!:laughing7:

I don't think it's that big a deal, personally. Like others, here, it's just a hobby to me. I personally use this site to gleen knowledge from those who have more experience. And peek at some interesting finds that others claim to have made. Most are "real", I'm sure. There is always that small % that "go for glory". IF your offended by seeded hunts, don't open those discussions. As for me, and mine- I won't get my big-boy panties in a bunch...

I'm not totally sure whether this thread is/was against planted, club hunts etc. or implying that some folks plant items to enhance their "finds" stories. At any rate, I attend several seeded club hunts per year and enjoy the interaction with other treasure hunters as well as the chance to find prize tokens and compare experiences. If this type of hunt doesn't appeal to one, they certainly don't have to attend as the "to each his own" rule applies and attending one of these in no way eliminates "wild" hunts through the season.

If you don't like the show change the channel. Oh wait if you don't like seeded hunts don't go to them. If you don't like post about seeded hunts ignore them. Offended really?

He asked for opinion's on seeded hunts ..If you like them i do not care …If i do not like them you should not care .. So then if some one does not agree with yours they should not post… Your opinion is the only one that counts…. I thought on Tnet we discussed at times different things with out attack's on others… But a lot on these web sites have a very short fuse...

I wish some people would stop seeding my hunting ground...with pop tops, tin foil, bottle caps, and can slaw!
They should use gold and silver!

First off I was responding to the original question not you post. You can have any opinion you want. The only short fuse seems to be yours.

I personally don't do seeded hunts for one main reason. :icon_scratch: I like finding things that actually have been lost, :thumbsup: preferably by someone from the 19th century or earlier. :dontknow: However I don't dismiss other peoples desires to get into the hobby. If you do seeded hunts to learn how to detect. If you do seeded hunts to get easy money and prizes. Maybe you do them cause you can't find a good place to find older items. That's your business and if you enjoy it or not you have every right to express it !!
Keep @ it and HH !! :hello2:

I did them for the potential of winning detectors ( Excals, sovereigns, Tiger Sharks, Sand Sharks, DFX, and many others ), gold coins, silver rounds, 50 oz silver bar and multiple cash prizes including top prize of $5,000.00
