Hey all,
First off, I am going to apologize for not having pictures to post!!! My son supposedly took pictures for me, but they are not on the SD card!!! I will get pics up ASAP!!!
There is a HUGE piece of property a few blocks from my house in Park Hills, MO. There are several soccer and football fields on this land. My son plays football and my daughter plays soccer at this place during the fall, so I have personally seen the mobs of people!! The same soccer field might host 5 or 6 games per afternoon on each individual field....there are people EVERYWHERE. There are new groups of people constantly rotating in and out on both sides of the field to watch little Jimmy and Suzie!! hahah
Anyways, this place is pretty much a mixture of what could be considered one of the best and the worst places to hunt. There are shards of aluminum and pulltabs everywhere, but the ground is also FULL of clad and hopefully various other goodies.
So, to make a long story short.......I went on a 2 hr hunt last night and found an impressive pocket full of clad and a GOLD ring with a ruby in the center and 6 diamonds in a circle around the ruby. This is my best find to date and it's the second GOLD ring that I have found at this location over the past month. I'm going back tonight!!!
On a humorous note, I always bring my finds in to work with me to show the other guys. I brought the ring in this morning and one of the guys said that he wanted me to teach a class on metal detecting, which I thought was the stupidest thing I've ever heard!!!! hahaha They all have $75-$100 Wal-Mart and Radio shack detectors, so my ACE250 seems considerably superior to what they are using!
