Back to reality...todays hunt

DFX-SE Gregg · May 25, 2007

After my 202 coin day with 2 rings, from Wednesday I knew not to expect much...and I did not get that much..

2hrs, $3.13 in clad, 45 coins.

DFX - Clad still helps out with the battery and gas costs - especially the gas these days

Great job. 45 coins bets none any day. Sorry to hear no rings or things. :'(

Better luck next time.

hey Gregg, not everyday is gonna be a 200 coin day. I think you did pretty well. If you were hunting the parks around here what you dug yesterday would be a good day!

Hey Gregg, nice goin. Looks like one of my better days, without the rings.....

A pretty average day for the most part I'd say. At least your machine is working and you had the chance to get out and swing! Clad adds up!
Best o' luck next time

Gregg,

Have you ever reached the 5,000 or 10,000 coin milestone in any given year?

To tell you the truth...>>NO!

I could not imagine having another 200 coin day for a while! I was inspired by a forum moderator sending me a newspaper article featuring him and his wife. I needed the motivation to get it done and did.

I don't want to hear that many beeps for quite a while!

This will be the first full year I have hunted since the 80's! Back then I used a White's 6000 Di series 3 which I still own also! Not sure if it works...will have to test it out soon. Back then if I had a 60-70 coin day it seemed my batteries would die out! This year I have 2 rechargable battery packs, a lesche digger and a bunch of other assorted goodies! Not sure exactly how many I was finding back then....

But the only way I don't pass 5000 is if my detector breaks! 10000, might need a little more work!

My original goals for year were>> 5500 coins and $450 in clad. Obviously the totals will have to be boosted upward...especially the coin total...but I want to pass 5500<my goal first. I think keeping a limit on my hunting helps, I will probably not hunt again till Monday now, helps me avoid burnout!
