You might want to take a little drive east on 82 and hit some of the small towns around there. I was born in Lubbock, have lived around there off and on (Army brat) and was on recruiting duty there for 3 years while I was in the USMC. I found a nice SLQ at a small ball field in Idalou, and also one in small town northeast of Dickens (I forget the name). I have also found silver in Ralls, Crosbyton, Floydada, Lorenzo and north in Plainview. I have found quite a bit at some of the schools in Lubbock, but that was in 82 - 85, so I imagine they have bit hit quite a bit more since then. You just have to get out and visit some of those small towns. GL
