Don't get frustrated. I have bad days all the time, but one good find makes up for the bad days.
Try getting permission to search some older yards. There are always things to be found there.
Hang in there.

There are links to where there are clubs all across the country, or check the FMDAC web site.

GC...The thumb of Mi is literally filled with 19th century farms and homes and every one has at least a few treasures around it.(Searched or not).Michigan was not settled for the most part until the mid 1800s and there were no Civil war battles fought here, so for the most part you are not going to find the really old stuff and you are not going to find war relics.I myself am a little shy about asking permission to hunt around private farms and houses but if you want to find good stuff ya gotta do it ...and keep doin it! By the way, where are you from.......JO

I have found some good things, but i'm really looking for a club

Check for area clubs on the internet.

Another thing is if your detector doesnt get much depth, what detector do you have?

 

[Southcacalaky]

Now is a good time to do some research. What are you interested in hunting for? Coin shooting is a good start for anyone just starting. Don't get disapointed. What research have you done in your area that you live? If your interested in coin shooting email me.. HH Art...

There are quite a few people in here from Michigan, I sure they can give you some tips. I am originally from the Brighton/Howell area and know that there a lot of old parks around there.

Where in michigan?

Don't be disheartened. The finds will come. You have ot realize that most forum members post their finds, not their failures, and there are many! I have gone out lots of times and expected silver just to find two cents clad! I don't post that! Monty

 

[strykerstalker]

im from the romulus area of michigan and havent found much as far as clubs go .. i only belong to this one and one thats mi based but they never do much as far as the other one goes so im here for the long haul..anyone else from the wayne county area? good luck on the hunt

Don't give up hope, there are plenty of coins out there. Just keep swinging, you will find something. I have days where I get zip, but it's all made up on the days I find stuff. Good luck.
