afreakofnature Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Hello all! I can not seem to find a copy to purchase of the 8th Edition of Jim Straight's Follow the Drywashers Vol 3. The Nuggetshooters Bible. I have the 6th Edition and I would like to see what has been updated and added since. I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to let me borrow their's. I would only need it for a couple weeks to compare. I would pay for shipping both ways (PayPal friends), I could even put a deposit down or something. Would anyone be willing to give a hand? Thanks!

Terry Soloman Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I have the Seventh Edition, published in 2004. It is signed by Jim to me, so I cherish it. If No one has the 8th, I'll work with you but I don't want to lose it. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afreakofnature Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 I appreciate that Terry! Let's see if someone will help me with the 8th first. A man only has his word and honor to back up his name, you would not lose this book. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afreakofnature Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 Though I might just give this a little bump up. Anybody even have the 8th? LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) I have the Fourth Edition... "Nuggetshooting Dryplacer Areas"...Follow the Drywashers...with an additional insert "Detecting for Hardrock Gold". It is hand signed by Jim Straight and I can't count the number of times I've it thru the years Hope you find the 8th!

Mike Furness Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Forgot to note also that Jim not only signed my copy but he included a 2 page hand written note. I treasure his thoughtfulness! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may have not seen this post, so shoot him an inquiry.. If Bill's out it's likely the jobber is also out.. Now, as likely as it is the entire run is sold out there is a possibility Jim may have some he keeps at home for autographed copies?? You can try a PM, but given what's going on who knows how often he checks? Probably a small add'n for an auto copy, assuming any are left.. One also needs approved to personal email, FYI..

Swamp From what I have read on the internet the 8th edtion is sold out and also out of print and no plans to print more, some are trying to get the publisher to print more but no luck as of yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
