Hit a new site today, and old sports field that is now on private property -- the site of a restaurant. This is an out of the way location, and I had high hopes for the site, assuming I could get permission.
I showed up to the site, and the field was in disrepair, beer cans and litter everywhere. Perfect :happydance01: I was lucky enough to find someone at the restaurant (you never know on a Sunday morning), and even luckier to get a yes when I asked if you mind if I swing my detector thru that field out back <: <: He couldn't care if I were gonna drill for oil in that field. happydance02
First hour pulled 3 silvers happydance02, and given I had 9 hours to blow, I did the math and was thinking a personal record kinda day, but it was not to be as I hit a long dry spell after that, pulling tons of wheaties, but nothing shiny. The wheaties keep your morale up, and eventually I hit another 3 spot just before lunch, and felt I'd be content if I could get a double digit day out of this site.
After lunch I hit a 2 dime spill :happydance01:, 8 silvers 5 hours in, but the remaining 3 hours were more of a struggle, pulling one per hour for a total of 11 on the day. Also pulled 30 wheats on the day, none older than 1935.
HH everyone.
