I had a old business associate who asked me about metal detecting. He lives in great area and is well known in the community. I did a little research and gave him a list of property's that might have campsites on them and he knew 2 out 3. He got us permission and I packed up my detectors and headed his way. I let him use my V3I as it is the easiest for beginners, and I used my CTX with the LARGE search coil. It took us about a hour and a half to zero in on the campsite on 200 acres. He dug 11 bullets, 1 J hook, and a pocket watch key in about four hours, and I got the shoulder scale and about 30 relics the 1st day. He's a business owner with 6 store locations and hasn't had time to go back, and honestly I don't know if his heart/ back is in it. Lol. I on the other hand have been back twice and have free rain to do as I please ; )! This didn't happen over night. The whole process took about 4 months, but well worth the wait.
