I have lost me lesche twice. Anyone else?

[OldJerseyGirl]

I have lost my lesche twice while hunting in the woods. I put it in my belt til I need it. I have been lucky to have found it both times. But hunted with a Guy who lost his and never found it in a huge overgrown field. I am thinking about getting a spray can of paint in bright orange and painting the handle. Maybe I can find a way to hang it on my belt where it won't come off. Mine is the 18" mini Samson. How do you carry yours? I don't like carrying it all the time.

I only use my hand digging Lesche while hunting, my mini Sampson if just too darn big and rarely do i ever dig over 10" so I don't feel the need for the mini sampson. I have attached a small lanyard to my hand digging lesche so i don't accidentally lose it.

I had to ask -- did you find it with your metal detector?

Just curious how you are losing it. Is it falling out of the sheath? Or are you just leaving it somewhere?

No moon, I found it with my eyes. I don't have a sheath. I wear a belt with my pouch, as tight as I can get it and put the tee handle under the belt. And, I was hunting in the woods. I don't use it in parks or yards.

On separate occasions I've left my pinpointer and raptor digger behind at night and had to back track to locate them. I try to make a habit if slipping the pinpointer into my finds pouch ASAP after finding target and returning my digger to its sheath before moving on.

I carry my Sampson, smaller lesche and the pinpointer in a carrier I made for holding dirt. Basically a large piece of demin stapled to tomato stakes. maybe 12" wide and 18" long. When I dig a hit I lay it on the ground next to the target so everything I right there. After retrieving the target I just put the tools back in the "carrier" and the demin sags enough to hold the tools in place.

Since I started doing this a couple years ago nothing has been lost. Before that a couple pinpointers were gone.

I had my lesche hand digger fall out once, without me knowing it. A friend, I was hunting with, happened to find it.

Just a few days ago, I left my TRX PP on the ground, first time ever leaving a PP. I backtracked and found it. The orange cap that is supposed to help you see them, was covered by leafs...

I got in a good routine after my dig to check for my stuff before I move on. Once I got so far back in light woods and forgot my smokes in the car. I thought I'd be faster to lay my detector and stuff down and run fast to the car and come right back. I thought I knew exactly were I left it and started to panic when I couldn't find the stuff for a half hour wandering around. Never again! (:

I left mine on the back bumper of my truck and then went home to get batteries. On the way back, I saw it laying in the middle of the road. I picked it up and realized that my pin pointer was also missing now. Found both and continued to MD.
