Penny kind of day! Getting better at pinpointing!

[Detectingfreak]

Well today I went into Issaquah. My hunting time was not very long. It was only an hour and a half. I really wanted to hunt and practice using my Minelab Explorer SE. I am still working on pinpointing with my Minelab Explorer SE. This machine is a lot of fun learning as I go on every hunt! I ended up at Lake Sammamish Park but got absolutly no targets there. Since I only hunt in the sand and playground area for now; I did not get a lot of targets. The reason why I choose not to hunt in the grassy area's because if I did, then I would end up digging all of the grass up just to find one small little coin.

I got no hits at all in the sand which was very odd. I ended up going to Veterans Memorial Park since the kids were in school and I didn't have school because I graduate from High School on thursday. I started out on the playground and by the end collected 27 Cents and numerous junk targets. I figure I am getting better at Pinpointing and hopefully will be finding some goodies soon! Here are the pictures!

Detectingfreak,

Good luck with your machine. I am a little oder than you, by a few years, but I had that desire when I was your age, just never got a machine then. I love digging in dirt, it is very addicting. I cannot think of a better way to spend a day (well, maybe a couple others, but I forget what they are now).

I am kinda learning my machine as well. Yesterday, for the first time, I pulled 8 wheats out of around 15 chosen targets. That was truly progress for me since all I usually found in the past was mostly clad coins.

Keep it up and enjoy it.
