how old is everyone here?

[daveycleaning]

hey guys i was just wondering hot old everyone is because i am just getting into TH and i have found that a lot of people are older. Which is cool because of the experience but i was wondering why there is not very many younger people like me. I am 20 years old. just thought it would be interesting!

I;m 43 years. Bought my first detector 4 years ago and bought another 1 for water this summer.This area was a hotbed for detectorists when I was young so most easy places have been hammered but nonetheless I keep finding goodies.Lost my only brother is a workplace incident this spring, he was 49 and had been detecting seriously for about 3 years.God Bless and HH...Panz

me is over 21.

I's bought me second detector October 71.

I traded in me Jetco Mustang.

Paid $139.45 for that Frontiersman Oct 71. The Frontiersman was advertised as "a well designed and constructed instrument. It has some of the finest features found in any metal detector."

I haven't turned it on for years and years but I betcha it still works.
