Took by son-in-law out yesterday on his first ever hunt. He had seen my recent finds and said he would like to give it a try so did an hour and a half on his one acre back yard. He lives in old farmhouse that my wife and I own dating to 1910. There was a barn on the property that burned down 40 years ago. I let him use my Ace 250 while I had my Equinox. Giving him 1/2 hour of instruction I let him go to town. When he got a signal I went over it with the Nox giving him an idea of what it might be. Lot's of buried junk there and he ended up only finding scrap and square nails while I pulled a 1957 Rosie, 1951 and 44 wheaties and what I think is a 50's elastic belt clasp. Temps were in the mid 30's with wind and flurries so he hung in there pretty well. After we were done he did ask me how much my Nox cost so I'm pretty sure the bug has bitten him. Next week he is off work Wed and Thur and we are getting a warm spell, temps in the 60's and he said he would like to go again. Going to take him to a local park that is loaded with coins so he can dig some good targets. That being said last night I went online and purchased a Simplex for him. Told him no hurry to pay me back. I'm a sucker for my kids and grandkids.
