frank c Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Its been a while since I visited Bill Southerns "Articles" pages. The hot summer and debt of winter are good times for reading, improving your knowledge and chances of finding where those nuggets are sittin just waiting for someone to BEEP EM.Worthwhile time can be spent here, http://www.nuggetshooter.com/articles/articles1.htmlHapy Huntn.

Chris Coffee Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Thanks for posting this link, Frank. I never even knew this kind of stuff was here. Guess I better start wandering off to other places than just the board itself, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedrock Bob Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Don, it seems this past year or so I have been doing alot of research , and my recovery has vastly improved for it. I'm a happy camper lately and still searching for a membership in the 1 ouncer club !!!! You have hit the nail on the head, Frank! I believe that research is the most important tool for any treasure hunter or meteorite hunter. The only reason it is not as important for a prospector is that we rely on hundreds of years of research that has already been done. And if you are looking for a really big one research will get you closer, faster than twice as many hours in the field swinging a detector.Some folks swing until they find one by chance and luck. Others do their research and find a biggie with smarts and knowledge. The ones that use smarts will find big ones repeatedly. The ones that do it by luck and chance will only rarely repeat the performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank c Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 I read all that Bill had posted back in 04. Then go back periodically to reread.What brought me back recently is my other half has just recently started getting into detecting. I have her set up with a "Frank C customized hot rodded" 2200v2 and now shes ready to learn about the " field" along with learning the detector.So I have to find articles for her to read so she will start to understand what its all about.She is literally dying to find her 1st nugget. And there have been alot of newbies posting lately like Chris Coffee, they aren't aware of this info Bill has untill somebody links them.
