I live in Warsaw Indiana, about 40 miles or so down the road from Fort Wayne. Is that close enough? I don't have a detector as of yet but planning on getting one as soon as decide what I want.

I have only been metal detecting for about 2 months now so I just try for anything I can find!!

[irishfan84n]

we should get a group together and go before it gets too cold or ground gets too hard!!!

I have a pioneer bounty hunter ex, but I know it is a good starter for me, but not for some people!!! hope this helps

[tater]

My sites are old house sites but are now just fields. Very easy to find and GREAT for OLD coins. I will be hunting saturday afternoon. If you are interested in going PM me. I always take my 11 year old son with me. He is a natural at detecting. Also most of the places i hunt are close to rivers so indian artifacts are everywhere!

[wynn]

I have my first metal detector ordered and should be here by the first of next week. Ace 350. A Indiana Metal detector group sounds good to me. Count me in.

[tater]

When you get it let me know and we can hunt some sites that i have. Good stuff out there if you know where to look

[wynn]

Well my ACE350 got here today. Of course I am at work and hav not seen it yet, and I am going in early Tuesday. But at least I finally have it. If any body wants to go hunting over Thanksgiving just let me know

[tater]

I might be able to have a small group hunt on sunday
