OK I need to vent. I happen to live in a really interesting little city which has history. My new hunt buddy researched the one prime, old school where the cement steps and a really old sidewalk still exists, and he got full permission from the actual owner, not just on the one property but on THREE!, WooHoo!
I was notified today that the rentor/leasee who's lived on site #1 for 15 years, made a call to a local, small archy society group, which is now headed by a metal detectorist himself, and as far as I can tell, he pretty much poisioned the water on metal detecting to the rentor, and within a pretty short time, the actual owner called and yanked all three permissions, not just the one primary spot which had a renting resident, which required the rentors secondary permission for when we could hunt.
Losing all three permissions within 24 hours only tells me that the archy(used to be a serious detector himself), really uglied up detecting compared to their archy effort.
There's no historical marker or nuthin. One archeological dude with a mikey mouse position, probably gave our hobby a real set back. In this small little city...I suspect metal detecting has been fairly set to off limits. A lot of Peyton Place in these tiny cities ya know.
