8 in your face Abe, and a Rev War kick to the shin - $1 bet first strike!

[Iron Patch]

Out on my 2nd hunt of the year and very limited do to frozen (but thawing) ground, and very muddy fields. We knocked on a door in one of our usual areas but no one home, so jumped on a little field that has been good to us but hunted several times now, and with the lack of much iron was getting pretty thin. We went in thinking we'd spend maybe an hour, dig a few small targets and then move on. What actually happened is I walked straight to the middle of the field and dug the RP button, filled the hole and took a few more swings and dug the Spanish silver 8 Reales about 6 feet away. Best 1-2 punch I've had in a while.. you feeling that one Abe? It's soaking/cleaning but will be a long process.
