I just received my first permission to hunt on a local property! It's just a big field, but I've seen an old barn hiding in the trees near it, so I'm pretty excited about see what is there! I'm going to take a look at it tomorrow morning and see what I can find, but I'm still waiting on my CTX 3030 to get here so I don't have very high expectations until I get a better machine!

Good luck!....
Keep that permission open, so when the 3030 arrives, you will have a good baseline of what the field holds....

I plan on that! I will hopefully have the 3030 by next weekend, but I was sure to ask if I could have permission for a while because it is a large area... So I'm good for a while!

If you gotta dig, place dirt on a plastic cloth so you can return all back in the hole.

I appreciate all of the advice... I will be sure to treat this with respect, but this is also a great place to practice my plugs and keeping things nice and neat... It's a big open farm field not someone's front yard, and the field was plowed a couple weeks ago!

I was able to steal a couple hours this morning to hunt... I can't wait to get rid of this damn Bounty Hunter! Found lots of trash, an old spike from a modern tractor plow, and one whole penny! I'm up to $0.52 this year! Making big money paying for that 3030!! But I did find out that what I though was an old barn hiding in the woods turned out to be an old house! Any suggestions on signs of cashes hiding in old houses? Hot spots I should be targeting? It has a basement... And a pretty dirty old root cellar... There are mason jars everywhere on the floor, don't know if it is dirt of cement yet...
