First metal detecting experience tomorrow

[GirlWithWolf]

I’m still saving for a metal detector, but someone my father knows overheard him talking about my interest and offered to let me borrow his so my father can take me hunting Sunday afternoon. It’s a Bounty Hunter TK4 Tracker IV and is brand new and still in the unopened box.

I’m open to all suggestions, especially if you’re familiar with this model and the settings. I’m hoping to find coins and jewelry, but an abandoned box of gold from a stagecoach would be nice too. 🤑

Don’t Focus on the finds so much the best part of the hunt is the good folks you meet along the way

No kidding! It can be very long stretch between trash and treasure.

In my mind there is A LOT in between if you focus on locations with long time historical occupation. Campgrounds, parks, and playgrounds can only produce so much.

Realize that you will be digging a LOT of trash before finding something good!
Guess what the target is before digging it up! That way you will learn what the machine is telling you!
Sounds or tones help you determine what you have, besides the I’d numbers

Best of luck out there!
