I DON'T KNOW HOW FAR DOWSING CAN GO BUT....
I don't know how far dowsing can go but I have witnessed it work for water a number of times. I worked for an old boy for about a year in Amarillo, Texas. Among other things he owned a well drilling outfit and we worked throughout North Texas and into Oklahoma.
I watched Harry dowse water in areas that the so called experts said there was none. It was not just water but good water. So for water, I have to say it does work.
Once, when we were working under sub contract on the 1715 Fleet, we were given the GPS on a Dowse that was supposedly done from a map and the road close to the beach. Taffy had given it to us and asked if we wanted to run it. We were kinda known for being willing to check out most anything.
Cabin fever was setting in due to a long stretch of bad wheather and -0 visibility so we took the boat out and dropped a buoy on the numbers. A very long stretch of bad weather and a few other issues combined so we never got back to those numbers to look at the bottom. There is an interesting point to this though. Until we got there and dropped the buoy, we didn't realize that we had been there before.
This beach has no public access and a few months before, a piece of info had come our way. We had run down, anchored the boat off the beach and swam in. For most of the day we searched the beach but in the end came up empty. During the day though we met an elderly lady that was sitting on a bench and had watched us most of the time. She told us that when she was a young girl, her family had lived in a little house that was right about where the Condo she now lived in was. She said they didn't have many neighbors in those days. They were pretty poor and her father would swim off shore to a big pile of rocks and get fish and lobster, She pointed in the general direction of where he would go and about how far it was.
Now our buoy was dropped inshore and a little north of where she had pointed but we always thought that it was interesting that it was in the same area. To this day a wreck of any type has not been reported in that area.
Did dowsing work in this case
? I don't know for sure so won't say. I saw it work with water though so that far I will say absolutely yes.
