What a morning ! We got out early and meet up with eagleforce , Ryan , to hunt a really large school field that has given up gold in the past . My son Carson has been trying his best this year to find a piece of gold , today was that day

. First off as soon as we hit the field Ryan had a +88 and it turned out to be a silver ring . Then maybe 30 minutes later Carson yells over to me and says , I FOUND GOLD !!! I ran over and took a quick picture and then he picked it up , 14K gold , weighs 4.6 grams ! It was a +28 VDI on the M6 at 1 inch . He was so happy

. Then it was my turn

. In the back part of the field I got a sweet +88 , +89 at 3 inches , silver ring ! It's #98 for the year . We all had a great hunt and Carson won't stop looking at his treasure !

Got to love this hobby !!!! :headbang:

Great hunt guys! He should go back to the spot and feel around the grass with a pinpointer to try to locate the chain. Pendants don't fall off by themselves, the chain rips first ;)
