How to dig Items with a SHOVEL !! whats your opinion

[eyemustdigtreasure]

If I could, I'd use a small shovel, but only some of the time, depending the site.
Pinpointing the target and using smaller tools is my technique.
I keep the dirt in my scoop, or on a rag, so no loss of dirt, on the lawn -
use a green hinge, and always tamp/STOMP the plug...!

Actually, if one of those shovels had a SLING attachments, I'd use a sml-med-sized shovel then....
T-handled.......

Agreed.
I'm an office boy, so when I get out I actually like all the bending and digging. Good exercise, like yard work.

Yeah, I'm an office boy too, which is why most of my posting is between 8 and 5 Monday to Friday
