Wisconsin parks recon and a bakers dozen

WOW Dew, YOU DA MAN! Congratulations. I hope when I grow up I can make some nice finds like this !!!!!!
 
Sweet finds! What things do you look for when you are going to hunt in the woods? I live in an older area and am thinking about venturing into the wilderness soon![/QUO
Thanks , Many hunt wooded areas looking for old home sites and are. Happy finding every kind of old relic imaginable .
I like to hunt for coins . Anywhere there were people years ago will work but I love big old wooded parks in or need town where folks could picnic and spend the day. Party and so fourth . Many forests in parks were not forests 100 years ago . A sled hill or picnic grounds . Even small patches of trees in your gold old hotspot were often overlooked by hunters so get in there.
Targets in the wood are often very shallow as being pushed up yearly by seedlings and roots . Also a bed of leaves decomposing from years of seasons create heat! Think compost pile heat! If you are in a place that the ground feeezes the wood can extend your season tremendously . It's enjoyable hunting .

Yeah! Now theres a silver heavy hunt! Nice Late November you are having!

Thanks Mud 👍 Please stop finding more clad in one week then I find all year.
Some kid in your neighborhood will get a detector for xmas and he will have nothing left to find . How do you sleep at night?
 
wow brother them are some awesome digs, I finally scored a 4 day off stretch but of course the wife and I were hit with a nasty cold so no digging for me. Glad you and the boy got out...miss ya guys!!!

Thanks Mike , you have my number buddy . You will get another window of opportunity . I'll be ready👍
 
I am extremely happy that the real Wisconsin Super Hero along with his sidekick Brett got out to show that he is still one of the best in this game. We been missing those reports of conquest of the horrible Silver Itch. Love that you included some of the wife's rewards of your adventures into the wilds and then you put in some history besides. Congrats my friend on some great hunting with your partner and hope we can get in one more outing before this season does not allow us to. Trapper

Oh , thanks a bunch Trap 👍 I was happily going about my season picking one or two off here and there .. but then you pretty much called me a Sally last week because I wasn't trying hard to hit 100 for the year ..
I just brushed it off but my subconscious seems to have taken it as a challenge lol.
Here's to another week of soft dirt .
 
You killed it, congrats! I am really digging that milk token and that fob, so cool! Plus seeing all that shiny stuff never gets old. Hope those spots continue to pay off.

Thanks a bunch Jam . I always look forward to the many shiny posts of yours . So never mind little old me ... your the real show . 👍
 
You kwazy kat...you smoked me like a huge doobie this weekend! Shiny,shinier,shiniest:grin: That ain’t no PFOF!
It’s great to see Dad and son enjoying this as much as anyone Brad,you did good on that one. You’ll make 100 no sweat. I heard someone else just hit 100...wonder who THAT could be!
Lots of guys having a lot of success this year finding what they’re after. You gotta be relentless,you gotta be good,you gotta have the right stuff. You and son have the right stuff. Huge PROPS for grinding it out!
 
Awesome scores there...Wisconsin has potential :) I work near Kenosha, so I might take some time out when the sun stays out a bit later (next year) and try to find some parks or hit the beaches near Carthage

Thanks a bunch Kev ..
I have pulled some dandys this year but these rosys and mercs are for padding the stats. Your the one scoring all the pretty oldies .. I'd love to live a day in your shoes pulling Morgans barber halfs seated sand such . Thanks for the support and for being so naturally curious .. it's great to have a buddy to bounce off theory and ideas .
 
What area was this in?

These hunts were primarily between milw and Green Bay . Most older towns along waterways will produce keepers . No tricks here , getting better with your machine of choice and searching for pockets of wheat penny's first .. then slow way down and work the !!!! out of that dirt . Clear the shallow trash if you hafta . Just below is your treasure . These are heavily hunted public parks .

Good luck. , Dew
