Guest goldstudmuffin Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Hi Bill and All,Little Bro was giving out detector lessons today, and they weren't free... infact it was a expensive one.Scotty dug a 8.5 dwt nugget in an old shallow dig hole left by someone I'm not sure because too much time has passed but it was either me or only 2 other friends that know about this patch that passed on this nugget. It pays to listen those very faint targets... anyway we headed home after only two hours of nugget hunting.Well at least I didn't get skunked I did get a small nugget! Hope you enjoy the pictures.

xt18000 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Nice looking rocks you got there! Can't help but wonder thou, why use a detectorif you don't dig up what it's telling you is there? If it makes noise there is a reason,an yes it might be junk, or mineralization, or gold, but if you don't stay in that holeuntill you know for sure what it was trying to tell you then you might as well leave itat home. Low and slow and dig tell you know !!!!! ( not a rant, just my take on it ) HH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest goldstudmuffin Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 You are a good man Bill... I don't care what the other ML dealers say!!! :hahaha: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nugget Shooter Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Yeah one or two tend to get a little insecure at times, but I just don't get all riled over it..... Plenty of room on this planet me thinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest goldstudmuffin Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I agree Bill, I remember 3 years ago when we bumped into you out in the feild and Scott was having a problem with his detector and you offered to take it home and ship it back to Minelab for Scotty.... So Scott took you up on the offer and eveything went smooth as silk on the repair and the shipping. The thing that impressed us was he bought the detector from other ML dealer that would have never offered that kind of service! You are the Man. :wubu: I just called Scott and ask him who paid for the shipping? And he couldn't remember giving you any $$$ for shipping... If that's the case Scotty owes you a invite somewhere special ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
