All Treasure Hunting
I'm totally new to the metal detecting world. For several years I've been considering it, but never pulled the trigger on a unit. With a really screwed-up right shoulder, and arthritis compounding the pain, I hadn't decided to begin... until I began researching and found the XP Deus. I have the unit, along with a Garrett Pro Pointer and Lesche hand digger on the way from Bart for my starting package, and can hardly wait to finally get started. From the areas I go to regularly I foresee over 60% of my time being coin related, the remainder being relic and cache.

I'm a graduate of the University of Miami and am retired, having spent 20 years in the military as a meteorologist... 15 of which was in Europe. This was followed by 15 years as a trucking operations manager, and finally 7 years in Emergency Medical Services. I live on the New York/Vermont border and spend quite a few weeks in northern coastal Maine every year. These areas should offer some good hunting. My hobbies and activities until now have been geocaching, backpacking, and flying (private pilot).

You might consider browsing Sub-Forums: New York and Sub-Forums: Vermont for information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to the two states you hunt in...
 

Welcome from WV....The geocaching time will help notice small variations in the landscape. And finding spots found on old maps
 

Welcome aboard and thank you for your military service!
