BadJim and I drove saturday until we were out of the snow, we had to go about an hour north, I know it is odd to drive north to get out of snow, but they got less that us! We started at a park, not much there but clad for me, Jim got a silver there. We knocked doors at a corner lot and the yard was decent size but barely any targets, I got a rosie, a buffalo, a some wheats.
We went two houses down and knocked and got permission, I got a 3" deep clad quarter signal on the curb and I dug it of course, I NEVER skip quarter signals regardless of depth. After I removed the quarter I re-scanned the hole and got a signal that now showed about 6" deep directly below where the quarter was. I dug down and found a CW token!!! That made my day! That shows that shallow clad can very well be masking deeper GOOD targets!
After that we hit a farm right outside of town, it was on a major higway and normally that means it has been pounded because everyone drives by it, but it turned out being a good yard, first got a few wheats, then I got a screaming 12-47 and I got 5 mercs in one hole!!!! What a blast they just kept coming out, man silver spills are a real rush!
So a good day indeed with six silvers, and a CW token. Jim got a couple more silver and indians from that yard as well, turned out being a heck of a farm yard!
