Two hunts down -- More to come!

Hello ladies and gents!

I've so far gotten two hunts in this year. Both of which are at my local parks. So far - sadly - I have found nothing but clad and some junk. This blog will serve as a place for me to record my findings and keep a list of things I do find. I won't post pictures unless the finds are amazing or something new for me. On a positive note; I did happen upon a rather strange occurrence. I was hunting like normal when I found some change laying in in the grass. (On top of it) Guess I'll just have that towards my total clad for the year. ;) Who knows, maybe It will help me in the end run?

Planning a hunt for this week (Hopefully tomorrow!) in the woods. We'll see if that turns up anything good. Luckly the forest also has a giant river near it along with some sand shores and appears to not been used for much in years. We'll see if I find anything along there. I'll be sure to post about it.

Right now I am still shopping around for a good Pin Pointer. Thinking about picking up the bounty hunter one from Amazon. It's a good price and I don't feel like spending to much on one right now. Considering my detector (Which from the reviews I have read is considered to be a good one) didn't cost over 200, I'm not comfortable spending more then the detector on a pin pointer right now. We'll see in the future. :D Also still attempting to get my technique down. It's getting better. Been watching a few youtube videos here and there trying to find some tips. We'll see how it works out.

Well tonight I work at my job at the gas station, we'll see if any interesting coins turn up. Perhaps I'll get lucky and add a few to my already growing collection. =] Though, last few times I worked I haven't found much. Oh well, it's worth a shot!

Till next time!
