  1. I hear there may have been artifacts in the shape of Wenro warriors in and around New Era stadium once upon a time. What remains of Chief Running Buffalo is not a happy camper/tailgater. ( kidding, kinda )
  2. One of my favorite coins is a 2 cent piece found in my neighbors front yard.
  3. From a historical standpoint the ground is littered with memento's from the past. If your into that kind of stuff and not afraid to get your hands dirty its an entertaining and relaxing hobby in my humble opinion.
  4. Fisher has a detector called the gold bug that runs on a higher frequency more set up for gold prospecting. The Fisher F75 will also find gold nuggets, just not as small.
  5. I've been using an old Whites Classic ID that I modified and keep getting out worked by the Fisher F75 which is much more sophisticated and goes almost twice as deep so I just ordered one from Walmart. ( half original price $ 599 ) The F75 can be fine tuned to target small nuggets of gold which I thought might be of interest to you. So If you decide on the F75 Jeff we can share tips. Its one of the best detectors on the market.
  6. sounds like some real good hunting grounds to me. Searching around old houses or house foundations can be very enjoyable/ lucrative. Ski slopes and areas people sled or snowboard down generally yield allot of clad change and a ring or two on occasion. I've found old coins overlooking lake Erie along the shoreline, searching through grape vineyards. Anywhere people have gathered over the years basically.
  7. If you told someone you were outhouse hunting you would probably be steered to the nearest porta john/ rep,
  8. Along the banks on hard ground, yes, Your neck of the woods might even have some gold deposited in them old creek beds, Most of my treasure hunting has been in NY or PA
  9. Owning or having access to property with some history to metal detect on is key. My advice is to get in touch with a local dealer that carries FIsher and set up for a demonstration to find out what works good for your pops. (check out model F75)
  10. The local privy has probably been worked over, virgin ground is what you need.
  11. To become the best you have to beat the best and to me hard schedule equates to a very exciting season.
  12. Enjoying treasure hunting as a hobby is somewhat dependent on finding treasures, and why I urge people to buy good equipment if you can afford it.
  13. Digging through old poop to find hidden treasures is a blast and can be very lucrative near battlegrounds in the south. Rebels tossed anything military related down the out house poop holes to hide their identity in some instances. Privy poker/ finder is the tool used to find them...
  14. Get a Fisher, depth capabilities mean everything. Go big, or go home empty handed... (Try Whites If you want user friendly)
  15. gotcha, I can agree with that, our last chance was Cam and we came oh so close,
  16. half the QB's taken in the 1st 3 rounds over the last 15 years have become franchise?
  17. with all due respect do you have something I could look at that supports a 50 / 50 proposition for finding a franchise QB, or at the very least, a winning QB.
  18. Good to hear, don't be walking around with a big star on your back, stay safe and enjoy
  19. The odds of a QB drafted in any round achieving starter status are long in my opinion. Smaller school QB's don't get the same amount of attention and in some instances good QB prospects are never even given an opportunity in my humble opinion. The wonderlic is supposed to tell us how well a QB reads the football field yet one of the NFL's lowest scores ( Cam Newton ) has been breaking NFL records in rushing and passing. Myself personally, it tells me good athletes are getting passed over in an evolving league that the power forward style QB is starting to emerge. When the odds are so bad for 1st round signal callers why would you trust the so called scouting to begin with Kirby?
  20. Owners are not the best athletes in the world and when a star athlete signs on to a team in many instances his future salary depends on how well a team is managed. Most players in any sport are drawn to winning organizations because they are goal oriented and want to win a championship. Players do take risks in my humble opinion.
  21. I love Tyrod Taylor going long for Sammy Watkins, Good BBQ, and God Blessing America...
  22. I understand the skepticism.
  23. Its not natural to do some of the things Sammy does, stopping on a dime,reversing directions, and his body/ feet pay the price IMO.
  24. I stand corrected, of service to the community.
