Short Hunt - 1.5 hours

[CRUSADER]

Helped complete the small area of stubble which our newbie found for us, where Dad & I got a hammered each.

Didn't take long to complete it, glad really as the baking sun was a killer when jumping on baked clay!

Now we have no options left, although my new detecting buddy will enquire about more land for the coming weeks!

I think your right, it has an iron pea stuck inside.

Cru,
Nothing like detecting on baked clay! You almost need a pick for that stuff.
Looks like a great day to me.
Congrats,
MM

At least you are still hunting. There must be more places to search, I hope you find a few soon!

Wow you really have great finds there .

Is this considered a bad day?

Is this considered a bad day?

I never like to use the word 'bad' & detecting in the same sentence. It would be like those fishing days when you get nothing at all, is that a bad day, of course not. At least not in my mind.

That said, it was one of my worst hunts this year, but I'm overdue a few of these. I seem to be on a pretty good roll. If I got a fraction of what I had already in a whole year of searching, I would have been pleased (some years ago). Now I aim higher, lots of my wish list items have been found, so I replace them with the 'impossibles' as with hunting anything 'might' happen. You guys will always be the first to know

I only used 'bad' in my sentence because I too never use the two together. One my favorite quotes is "a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work anyday".
