Hello from Oregon!
Hi!
I'm still new too...but this helped.
Take your time.
Get the best detector you can afford...I loved my F44 when I started.
Toss some coins on the ground before you start, look at the VDI and listen to the tones.
Dig everything at first, take a guess before you dig. "I'm pretty sure this is a pull tab"
I started to dig at newer parks Fields where there were less junk and softer ground.
Get a GOOD pin-pointer (Garret Carrot).
Get a GOOD digger...but a cheap Fiskar can work OK but my Whites Digger...Awesome,
The more you go out and dig the better it gets

Hey ugadigger !
I'm not familiar with chesterfield but smaller towns like the one I'm in are indeed nice, not much traffic, easy parking, low crime compared to the big city areas, and for the most part people are friendly, even strangers say hi around town sometimes.

complete your profile with type metal detector
put in your profile where you are from, type metal detectors you have and what type of hunting you will be doing.
go watch some youtube videos on the type of metal detector and type of hunting you are interested in.
then ask specific questions. Lots of people won't give you general beginners advice, because it takes too much time.

Do research, have fun, and dig as many targets as you can. The more targets you dig you will start making mental notes in your head and it will help you down the road.
