Handsome Devil! Now get some Silver!!:hello2::headbang:
 

we gotta get you a smaller digger
 

I'm thinking about buying one just like that but one of the smaller ones. The real struggle is not having a pin pointer. I can't do anything until i pay my debt off 125 dollars.
 

I don't use a pinpointer
 

kid, listen to dave ramsey, stay away from debt
 

I don't use a pinpointer

I mean it's not that bad not having one just takes a little more time to find. As for the debt should be payed off another full day of work at the farm.
 

Yup....there must be a treasure chest down there for a shovel that big !! HH !!
 

That’s funny... when I first started I lugged around this big ol shovel with me. I find even a sturdy collapsible shovel works great.
Nice pic btw
 

I’ve used one of these since I started in 2005. I cut off and shaped about four inches off the front. I also made the tip slightly pointy to pierce the ground easier as well as sharpened the edges a little. Has always worked great.
Also, when I’m in mostly water with the at pro, I use an old army foldable trench shovel. I welded and sealed a strong rare earth magnet in the end of the handle so that when I find iron signals I can usually just turn my shovel around and pull up whatever is iron with the magnet. Oh, and I ALWAYS use a pin pointer, makes life so much easier. I’ve had Sunray pinpointers built into two of my detectors and I use a first gen Garrett pinpointer in the water. I just sealed up it’s leak points.

Good Photo! I've had to go home and return with a bigger shovel before. It pays to be prepared.
 

In the mines we called those things a muck-stick and we used them to clean out the drainage known as the piss ditch. Ya gotta love sister's
 

Ive seen a guy at a park with a big ole shovel
