THE CHISHOLM TRAIL HUNT

mastereagle22 · Sep 6, 2007

I am brining Beauty and the Beast (Deleon and Explorer II). And I really hope nothing happens to your machine. Can't wait to meet you at the CTH!

Yea,

That could happen :'

What is everyone else hunting with?

TW

But I'm sure it won't. Just like riding a bike. It'll all come back to you, besides if I heard right you make some pretty good finds with the Eagle.

FYI, I'm not hunting but I'm bringing the DeLeon, Cibola, and Fisher in case someone needs a backup.

The Rowdy Bunch (Stoney & Burdie) are still wandering around trying to find the CTH. Wonder if they find the place before Oct 5th?

LOL, RR! Wandering the Kansas prairie can be scary. It's easy to get lost and all the farm houses are painted white and look the same.

I am going to try something different this time. I am bringing my usual GTI 2500 but I plan on artifact hunting a lot with my Sea Hunter II with a 14" coil. It is a PI machine and will go really deep. Problem is you don't now how deep or don't have a clue what size the item might be. I am spoiled by the GTI. I am bringing a small spade in case I get a really solid hit at 15 to 20" or so. But don't worry, I'll fill the hole nicely. Last year I pooped out or my back pooped out at JD's hunt in Missouri and had to sit out most of the hunt. This year I have special permission to bring my ATV and promised to be careful about damaging the terrain. So, if it is hot, maybe I can be the water boy and carry some cold drinks around to everybody? About ten bucks for a cold coke or pepsi sounds about right don't it? Just kidding, honest.

We may have some cold drinks there and if so I would be glad to take a minute or two off and bring everyone a cold drink. So Burdie I am volunteering to help out if needed. M

As things developed, I booked one hotel, then another, then another. I STILL

haven't cancelled the first two, Caldwell Hotel and the Holiday Inn in Ponca City. Am going to cancel today. Is anybody looking for a room, especially in Caldwell? If so, let me know and we'll swap our room over to you before they give it away to someone else.

I will be using my MXT and I will have old faithfull as well, my IDX/Pro. I have recently put a DX1 Sunray probe on the MXT and will be using the Super 12 coil that I just got as well.

ME, if time permits I would like you to show me the basics on your Explorer. I was this close (-) to getting one 5 years ago but after borrowing a friends and trying it, I decided it would take more patience to learn than I was willing to give it. I tried an MXT which was new at the time and it was so easy I opted for it and have no regrets, it has served me well.

Hey if the room in Caldwell is still available I will take it!!!

I will gladly go over the Beast with you. I may confuse you more than help you but I love the thing and I will be more than happy to show it to you. My biggest problem with the thing has been figuring out how to program it. I read the manual 8 times now and it is very vague in some places but Captn_SE and others have helped me out quite a bit.

Thanks to Noodle looks like I will be staying in the Caldwell Hotel (motel?). I know some of you may be saying YIPEE right now, but it saves me and BB the hassle and time of pulling a 28 foot trailer 9 and a half hours away!!

Thanks NOODLE!

Marshall Bullen will be waiting for the Rowdy Bunch...better be on your best behavior.

Meet Judge Flossy Bovine. I understand she gives a tongue lashing worse than Judge Judy

RR, that last pic is discusting

, however would a bunch of fresh corn on the cob, blanched and frozen help change your mind--especially with real butter oozing all over?

warsawdaddy · Sep 7, 2007

Does that pic of the Border Queen(Bessie) show a garter?

Shoot, it's convinced me... I'm ready to go twice, now!

I do hope River Rat is able to come... it would be just that much more fun.

Crossin' fingers,
