No , Why would I want to dig everything ??? Why do people continue to say this ??? I've been involved with this

forum since Nov. of 2007 - I think- and I normally am rather mild mannered , with a bent toward humour , and I

am generous with the compliments and encouragement - but I've had it up to here with you " yep dig it all buddy"

types . You and all the " yeehah ! dig everything " guys , are seriously degrading the integrity of this site !!!

Dig that Y'all Argentium.
 
THANK YOU FOR YOUR NICE COMMENTS, FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT IF YOU DON'T DIG IT, " YOU" WON'T KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE UNDER THE GROUND- YOU SEE, I'M A RELIC HUNTER AND NOT A TOT LOT HUNTER, THAT MEANS MOST OF MY TARGETS ARE IRON BRASS,COPPER, ZINC, YOU DONT HAVE THE PATIENCE THAT IT TAKES TO BE A REAL RELIC HUNTER, OF COUSE YOU PROBLY DON'T HAVE PLACES TO HUNT LIKE DO, CIVIL WAR SITES, PRE 1800 HOMESITES, OLD TRAIN DEPOTS, AND A TON OF OTHER PLACES THAT ARE WITH IN 20 MILES FROM HOME, MY MOTTO IS " DIG EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN" AND I WONT LEAVE YOU NOTHING TO DIG :thumbsup:BUT YOUR OWN BACKYARD, THOSE OF YOU WHO DIG EVERYTHING, MORE POWER TO YOU....

I'MA GONNA KEEPA DIGGIN, EVEN IF IT HURTS YOUR FEELINGS

HOWDY FROM "ALABAMA"

"Degrading the integrity of this site"??? I really hope you're being facetious, because if you're not, RELAX!!! MLHudson is clearly happy with his digs, and why shouldn't he be? Who are YOU to respond that way? It seems YOU are the one who is obviously unhappy and willing to trash another member's finds for your own amusement. This is about having fun, stop being a Debbie Downer.

ML, I'm not big into "digging everything", but ROCK ON with your digs! Keep posting your finds, too.

Joe
 
mlhudson, The restraint you displayed in your reply is admirable , considering the emotion I let fly - and I must

admit your assesments were accurate as well. I am mostly not a relic hunter , I do not have access to lots of

Civil War battle sites ( Glorieta pass excepted) , I don't much like tot lots either- although with the gold finds

folks are making that could change . Thank you for taking the high road ! I did lose it - I'm sorry - Argentium.
 
I have to agree with ' dig everything ' for the main reason I am getting accustomed to my Minelab SE, and if I take the chance on guessing right now through noise, or digital, I may miss something. Digging all signals gives me knowledge of what the item is, particularly when it comes to gold jewellry. Here is a good example- a gold earring was reading as 07-07, which also could be a pull tab, and the gold teeth was reading as 12-02.
My particular kind of hunting is for coins, and jewellry, so I use iron mask. I dig all signals that sound off on my machine. As for MLHUDSON he is probably looking for iron treasures, so good on him if he wants to dig it all.
I wish him all the best of luck in his hunts.
 
I agree with digging it all! when I am on an old homesite I dig every signal above iron, you'd be amazed at what things come out of the ground that the detector says is junk! A lot of times you will have 2 close targets under the coil at once and it DOES NOT give a good signal, but many nice coins I found gave bad signals because of trash close by, if you dig it all, you don't miss the goodies!

If your only digging good signals, I PROMISE you, that you ARE missing good stuff
 
THANKS FOR COMMENTS

MLHUDSON :thumbsup:

KEEPA DIGIN" EVERYTHING"
 
I ADMIT IT'S HARD TO DIG EVERYTHING, BUT SOMEBODY HAS GOT TO.. I CLEAN OUT PLAYGROUND FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE KIDS THERE. THE CANS, GLASS, TABS, ODD BALL TRASH. IT'S WHAT I DO FOR THE GREATER GOOD OF THE HOBBY..

THANKS FOR THE REPLIES FROM ALL OF YOU. THIS FORUM IS EVERYBODY'S TO INTERACT WITH- NO HARM-NO FOIL
KEEPA DIGGIN

MLHUDSON
 
Is that camo I see wrapped around your MD shaft? Thats a good idea.
 
WHY YES IS IS. I MADE THEM FOR THE WEEDS AND BRUSH TO KEEP MY CABLE FROM GETTING BEAT UP AND SCUFFED.. SO YOU DO LIKE THAT, WHEN I MADE THEM, SOME FOLKS THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY FOR WASTIN MY TIME.. BUT THEY WORK

THANKS FOR THE GOOD EYE. :icon_pirat:

YOU HAVE A GOOD'IN- HH
MLHUDSON
 
I'm with you there ml. I don't run across that many coins but I do dig everything and take it out with me and trash it. It's the least I can do, I always leave a place a little better than I found it, it's the way I was brought up. Dig it all, ml. I hope an can make it to the next meeting.....George :thumbsup:
 
Okay..Okay.

Lets just dig and be happy.

Mlhudson great finds and I love the camo.

I personally use McNett Camo Form on my machine. It is self-adhering and leaves no residue when you want to take it off. It keeps my machine clean, quiet and hard to see. My shovel loves the stuff as well. It can be pricey and hard to find, but I have found some great (cheap) deals on E-Bay.

Anyways, Mlhudson..keep doing what you are doing and thanks for sharing.

People...this is a great hobby!! Let us not bicker over what to dig. I personally wish you all would dig less signals so there would be more for me to dig!! =)

Happy Hunting All,
Sneaky6
