Re: UPDATED 8/14/06 T-Net Forum Hunt!!! In Oct.
I agree, get too greedy or have one bad egg ignore the wishes of the land owner and it is off for all of us. Keep this as a friendly gathering, chance to meet each other type deal and hope to find a bullet or two and we all have fun. Get greedy and decide to dig a house foundation, the day will be ruined for everyone. The land owner has to be a good soul to allow this many folks on his property to enjoy the day. Don't do anything that would make a couple friendly country folk distrust metal detectorists. It would be a black eye for all of us.
j.d. in missouri said:Outback there are huts there, I even have a video of one found there 2 aprils ago...at that time we gained permission to dig some huts... but to put this as delicatly as possible the slow butt missouri guys waited too long to show back up to dig them and the owners friend convinced him that his ground will be destroyed so he said no when we finally showed up to do hut digging hes a wonderful 82 year old man and I'm not gonna pressure him to dig huts when he said no. he is gonna cut the hay pretty low for us I'm gonna leave it at that. we are lucky for this oppertunity he and his wifes health are failing fast this may be the last hunt there.
