What a difference

[bugbitingme]

It makes when you learn something about the machine. Last evening, the grandson and I went in the back yard and found what was in the first picture. Today, after watching an instructional video put out by Bounty Hunter, I set up the machine and found what is in the second picture. I had 5 pennies, but must have dropped one of them. I guess it will be there to find next time. Starting to get comfortable with the machine a lot sooner than I thought I would.

Thanks guys, I think you are correct about pulling everything. It is good exercise and you never know what you will get. I will say that eerything I pulled in the back yard indicated correctly, except pulltabs sometimes were nails of other iron. Also good practice to pinpoint so I don't have to dig a bomb crater to get something 4"s down.
