Probably not in this case but I've had farmers tell me to not worry about filling in the holes I made in their fields. They said it was just aerating the soil. 😏
A freshly plowed before its groomed a possible.
My England club would ban you for not filling.
Lazy ass detecting that's what it is.
Ankle twisting holes that's what it is.
They're detecting hay/pasture in the video, which makes no sense.
Animals can take a bad leg stepping a shovel hole.
2 examples:
I stated to a farmer's relative when they saw me smooth out my hole.
"You sure tidy up your digging "
I stated its a requirement by the club when digging in England.
Plus its not my dirt so I as a detectorist respect that I am allowed to dig.
"Well there should be no other way"
The local harvester (cuts 1000s of acres) stated this:
Haven't you been digging anything out in the field Jim?"
Oh yes I have been digging many targets at the 3 sites back there.
"Oh it was just that I have driven around all of the places and haven't seen a single hole"
My reply: Bob you're never going to see one either.
Take some pride in this passion and the stewardship that is shown goes miles in obtaining permissions.
There's my take on that subject.
Even if they say ok-still do a nay.
