My father found his first Civil War bullet!

Darktower007 · Dec 10, 2017

I can’t tell you how thrilled I was when he found it! We were hunting near Ringgold Gap, and using my fisher F70, he said I’m getting a foil signal pretty deep? I said “Foil”?

Then he pulled out a mini ball! He was thrilled and at 72 never even hunted before I hope it’s not the last!

Good for him! Is that his very first hunt?

Hunted some in his front yard with him. He really liked the F70 and the vdi read out. Hope he comes out again soon!
