Idea's on how to enhance my skills
well I'm detectorless these days but my buddy has a nice minelab excalbur so anyways we got permission to this field we've been aching to do for a while now so I told him go hunt around first see what you find on your own and i'll go dowse and mark off spots well the crazy thing was 3 out of 5 of where I X'ed some spots there were targets within a foot of the area and I had used old coins to bait with from silver walking liberty coins t o2 cent piece to a flying eagle penny and also a indian head cent but as he detected over the targets only one was wasn't iron was a metal loop thing I think came off a saddle the other targets were a iron spike a hand crank to hand drill or some kind old tool and iron piece of plate.........no coins or real good targets from there so just looking for any help to enhance my ability or try something different with rods?
