Well i thought the show's tonight were very good ... And tonight there " lingo " did not bother me....My wife even liked tonight's show's...... Ringmaster Tim & King George...Are two guy's that really love to metal detect they are not actors.....I have had there DVD's for 6 years give or take...... And about 5 years ago one night had a nice conversion on the phone with the Ringmaster.......... And they are really nice people..... You don't have to like the show they made some shows i did not like............And some shows i liked...... But i would never run down the Ringmaster or the King .....
Was awesome when he found the ring
That was a BIG PLUS for us as a whole
I enjoyed both shows this time.
the antics were toned down also to one tree climb
which also set better with me
the language ? it's theirs. I do say "cool" allot .
some misguided people may say "keen", "Kickin", "cheez whiz" , or "snoochie boochies"
I'd only use "snoochie boochies" if I was just Hired for a job
with a prestigeous firm, where suit & tie is mandatory.
or Black Tie Event.
they wanna invent their own shortcuts to words, more power to them
I am glad to hear that they are real. I was thinking that the show was mostly made up with planted finds. I personally would not go all flipply like they do every 1o minutes but then again I hunt alone most of the time.
at this point, I'd say they are most definitely real
although if you look real close it appears most finds are reenactments.
I may be wrong but when they pry up the grass it looks like
it pops up a little too easy to be first time.
however at they pull the things out the dirt , it looks first time.
I think it is possible they find & dig & as soon at they see
"roundness" or ?
they push the flap down & call a camera.
which would make sense.
Im a mewbie to metal detecting so I thought there shoertened words were part of the hobby. Glad I didn't start using that slang in front of veteran hunters. Anyway, I enjoy the show and learn alot from watching it. Glad to hear it's not staged.
I believe this is what bugs most of us.
They do say "Diggers Dictionary" meaning their words,
but most don't catch that meaning.
anyway; a late Welcome !
?? I consider what we do as detectors to be more professional. I have to think some of it is just done for the show OR they do it since they hunt together and it's their "language" between each other. Either way, it's annoying to me. It's my opinion. I've never heard anyone else ever in person or on this site talk that way.
