a very short "HUNT" since the wheel took 45 minutes to free from the 200 year old tree roots, then the French Trade Tomahawk at 20 inches deep (kinda' ran out of arm to stick in that hole) was another 15 minute dig. hit as growling 85 VDI, :laughing7: mostly growl with the sporadic chirp :dontknow:, but what a rush when it revealed itself. both were given electrolysis then a light coat of beeswax. the wheel ( toy covered wagon? :dontknow:)is 3.6 ounces, 2 7/8" X 1/2", the trade head is 10 ounces, 4 1/2" X 2 1/2". also scored a '55 Wheat & '72 Jeff. decided to make a deal with my host on the '34 matron LC--- it gets to live in his LC collection and I got a '48 in super un- dug condition. felt like the right thing to do :icon_thumleft::icon_thumright: Monday was another clad fest at the adjacent public land where the .925 ring at 3.2 grams covered my travel cost.

if only I could get in there. you, as a young urchin miscreant did it in a way that would get me cuffed & stuffed. I have taken about 3 bites of that elephant, still a s^itload af acres yet to be swallowed by my shallow yet greedy self. FMERG frowns on clad, but he did get us a permission for next spring on the plains where some wild beasts roam. I snagged a bird dog for foreclosures a few miles up river and my bird dog is cuter than a boat full of unicorns
