Hi all, I'm new to the forum and just love the amount of info. I moved from central Florida to Arkansas Ouchita mountains last December and it's a whole different world digging in the rocky ground to find something. I can't use a small shovel so I've been using a claw hammer, lol, to unearth the rocks to get to targets. Here's my dillema. I have always dug everything when I get a target, but here I get burnt out digging through the rocky ground. The Whites XLT is great but trying to dig everything is a pain. I get the icons on my screen for "ring and nickel" I have dug up more rifle shells with those icons than I'd like to admit. I also get the icon for "$1" silver dollar. When I dug one heck of a hole yesterday it turned out to be a an old Chevy headlight backing.
My son found a 1959 liberty bell silver half dollar yesterday by eyesight in a washout on an old road that is no longer accessable. I took the Whites out and found a 1926 Buffalo nickel within feet of his find about 6" down in the layers of slate rock. No telling what else is down there. I almost didn't dig for the nickel because of the crap I've dug out when the "ring and nickel" icons appear. Any suggestions for swiping this area with the Whites without having to dig every target through the rocks?
