Silver Success in Two Long Awaited Hunts

jack&jill · Jul 4, 2016

It has been a while since I last posted hunts by myself. Lack of hunting time due to work and home responsibilities have taken most of my free time. But I did manage a couple of short outings this holiday weekend. With the aide of "Gameoftag" I made a trip to my home town for my Granddaughters Birthday and with his help I got to hunt a two block tear out. I wished more time would have been available to me, as the last area I hunted I was very blessed to put my coil over some silver but had to rush through it and I'm very sure I left a lot of finds behind. 2 Merc's, a "42" Washington, 4 Wheat's and a 50 cent Trade Token along with 39 cents in clad were the totals for my efforts. This morning I went to a older park where I have found some success in the past. Added another pair of Merc's and 5 Wheat's. Only 31 cents for my clad count by still getting out was reward enough. These two outings were only my 16th and 17th of the year. Maybe the late summer and fall will give me more time. Jack

Looking forward to Wednesday Mike. I also hope the ground will be diggable and with a few targets for our benefit. Did not see "Game" as he was out of town but he shared the location.

Thanks Jerry. I just wish I had more time, but the wages have been very good, just not as much fun.

Thank you Briun, if there had been more time available I think I could have added a few more items to the totals.

Thank you Joe, it seems like a long time between outings and reports.

Tear outs can be very productive Beep. Specially in old neighborhoods.

I understand the lack of time Jeff. All work and no play can drive a detectionist mad. Bad part here is the ground is getting hard and dry so permissions will be very rare.

Rich, I have had a great year for the time spent. 17 hunts with 14 producing Silver. The majority of the outings I have been blessed with great friends on the hunts.

The only reason I did not get the clad Jason, is it wasn't there. I did like that the keeper rate was higher being there were few targets at the park.Things may start to loosen for me, may get in two hunts this week if all goes right.

Thanks Rreahard. Digging silver I find to be always great but recent lack of hunting time does tend to make these recoveries more special. Jack
