Soccer Field Hunt #1 What A Day!

[piggman1]

Woke up before daylight and headed over to this new soccer field I found, with visions of rings and clad in my head. Using my GPS, I had my flags put out for markers before the sun rose. Once it got light enough to hunt I went to work. It didn't take too long to know that this place had been hit hard in the past. I could also tell that they had discriminated out pull tabs and can slaw, because that was all I was picking up. Instead of picking up and leaving, I decided to go ahead and hunt the section I had layed out. I figured that if they left the pull tabs, they left the gold. Man, it was rough going. I never thought I would see the day that a coin signal would get me excited, but today they were so far and few between, every time I got one I would want to do the happy dance. After 6 hours of steady searching, I ended up with a little clad, one heart shaped pendent, a little trinket, and a Boy Scouts kerchief holder. If it wasn't for digging 8 quarters stacked on top of each other, my coin count would be a lot less. I dug a whole lot of can slaw and pull tabs, but no gold. I'm not going to give up on this one yet, just going to rethink it a little.

That is a lot of trash you got there my friend! I found a boy scout thing yesterday too; mine has Tigers on it. Now that school has started we will probably find a lot more scouting stuff. Maybe the finds will get better when you get to the other side of the field by the houses.

When you go to vacuum a field it helps to have a plan. This one just didn't work out as planned. It was almost too big a section for one time. The next will be smaller.

Man, that is alot of trash! That looks rough. It reminds me of the floorboards in the car.

It looks better than my floorboards.

You Sir are a Saint for picking up all that trash!
Congrats on all your finds too.
Keep up the good work.
