Howdy from Texas!

Howdy,

My name is Lance and I am excited about joining this and any other groups in the Fort worth area. As a kid, my dad bought me a metal detector and I had hours of fun with it. I was very excited to know that my daughter wants to start treasure hunting and so here I am. Any advice on where to find a good used detector in the Ft worth area would be appreciated. I also would like to know of some spots my daughter and I could go search. Lastly are there any groups in this area?


Thanks and happy hunting,

Lance

Wecome to TNet from the Alamo City. Check the Texas forum and there is a section on used equipment for sale too. Wouldn't trust Craigslist if I were you. Good luck on your hunts...

I used to go out to E.P. To conduct business and went to a couple of Miner games. Also made some bball games. Always liked the low humidity out there. Class of 71 at Lamar, no ball, just studies. Made any finds yet?

Welcome to Tnet from NYC.
Texas is the home of Garrett Metal Detectors.
I have had great success with their machines.
For the daughter, I might suggest their ACE 250
For you,, look at the AT PRO.
