Dman has been very busy with his store so we have not had much time at all to go relic hunting since early November. I did get him free for a two hour hunt this morning. Plan "A" was to go to a new site that I am 100% sure has relics and I had already secured permission for us both to hunt. However, I promised the landowner that we would never come to his farm unless we advised him first. Unfortunately, I forgot to call and he was not home. We always have a Plan "B".
I had not hunted the adjoining property to the the Plan "A" site in probably 8 years and Dman had never been there. We did have permission to hunt. We went into the woods after fighting the briars and wading the stream. I had my F75 and Dman took his F75 LTD. After 10 minutes of hunting, Dman found a round ball and I dug the brass saddle shield-my first. I found one melted bullet and Dman found 3 .58cal. 3 ring bullets to go with the round ball.
We did find the Plan "A" landowner before we left and are set up to hunt there the first chance we get. Happy Hunting and Merry Christmas from Middle Tennessee.
CW Relic Count (Not counting button backs, campfire lead, and non-CW period coins)
7-1-2006 until Dec. 31,2008=467 relics
2009 Relics YTD=113

I've only found one that wasn't mutilated, and it had no kind of I.D. on it. Plus, it was at an old homesite, so more than likely a farmer's saddle shield. Great Job! Good luck and here's to more great hunting in the new year! Regards, Richard
BRAD! You keep ending up in those magazines like that, you'll be our local movie star. 8)
