Hi Folks,

I met up with 5 other members of the Arkansas
Treasure Hunters Club this morning to hunt this
field,

11-7-1-1.jpg


This field has been well hunted and it was tough
to find anything. Here's my take,

Old James started proclaiming his self as tha winner
because he had found 3 mini balls. More than anyone
else.

I pulled out my three pistol balls and my primer cap,

No big deal,,,,,,,,,,

The I proceeded to pull out my old 1864 Indian Head
penny,

11-7-5-1.jpg


Then they proclaimed Tabdog tha winner.

I never knew 3 pistol bullets and an Indian Head beat
3 mini balls,,,,,,,,

But I guess it does,,,,

I had fun though.

Stay tuned for Part II,

That's farm country. We are at the foot of the
Ozark Mountains. Everything south and east
is mostly flat. Everything north and west is
mostly hills.

Yes, I was using a Vaquero with the stock coil.

The guy that found 3 mini balls had a MXT.
He and the guy with a Garrett CZ seemed to
deeper than I could.

Other machines used were, Whites Spectra V3,
Whites DFX, Whites MXT, Bounty Hunter 505
and Garrett CZ something.

I truly think what helps me is the high sensitivity
of the Vaquero and me not using any discrimination,
and being willing to dig iron.


I can not explain how I won. It's a fluke. But
it seems to happen to me a lot.

I upstaged the last guy that had a Minelab
ETrack. Then PJ came down with his Minelab
Sovern. Now we traded off......... One day, I
upstaged him, and one day he upstaged me.

But, back to reality, I have been upstaged by
Ace 250's and even Bounty Hunters.

I am just grateful to be able to get out and
hunt,

Tabdog
 
I can witness to the sensitivity of both the Vaquero and the Cibola. They are super deep machines and definitely have there applications. That being said, looks like you had a long road of attrition in that field but stuck it out and came out on top with a few keepers. Congrats on the Wartime Injun, those are my favs for those guys.
