JmCraz8 · Aug 26, 2018

Today was a great day digging the American Civil War never gets old never will. Found a bunch of lead a whopper .69 three ringer and round balls, some case shot, bucky ball, my first dropped enfield bullet and my first ever enfield nipple protector chain but just missing the protector lol Also broke my cheap Walmart shovel today, snapped it clean in half haha but she was a good one while she lasted, any suggestions on a good root cutting shovel?

Congratulations!!! I have 4 .69 3 ringers and there’s nothing like pulling HUGE lead out that ground. [emoji1360]

Super day. :icon_thumright:

I agree. The Lesche Parahna is a great root cutting- digging tool. I have that one. But they have several models and lengths. Very well made and great people to deal with.

Predator tools - Piranha model 35 shovel...buy the rubber foot pads!

I have used this shovel for hundreds of Farm, field and woods hunts with no regrets! It's a root buster! :hello2:
