40 years ago when I was a teenager,my parents had a water leak on there water line going to there house,the water line was approx. 500 feet long,we walked the water line multiple times to try to find the leak with no success. I told my dad we can try witching (dowsing) that I have heard about,he said that’s crazy that will never work. So I grabbed 2 clothes hangers and cut them L shaped.and walked the water line multiple times and rods would always cross at the same spot,so we grabbed a shovel and starting digging,about 2 feet down the soil was getting wet,and we found the water leak.
I did the very same at my parents house when a surface drain blocked. My dad was digging in line with the drain about 20 yards away but couldn't find it. I had just started working with a dowser who had showed me how to use the rods so I told my dad. We bent some wire into rods and I found the drain in seconds. The drain ran at 45 degrees for 5 yards then straightened out which is why it wasn't where my dad was digging.
We used dowsing on jobs to find water lines and sprinkler systems. I kid you not, recently the phone company came to install a line and I watched the guy get out of his truck and immediately locate the EXACT position of the water line before he dug the trench to bury the cable. Just BOOM within seconds he found it with dowsing rods. Then he dug down with a shovel to confirm it. And he nailed it. We often had to locate very deep water lines or buried cables on jobs. The guy I worked with was very good at locating them fast. So after seeing him doing it I tried it at my dad`s house. I used little red flags we had to make the spots where the rods crossed. They started forming a line. So I asked my dad if he knew what was under there. He pointed to the satellite dish about 150 feet away. It was the buried cable running to it.
Dowsing with the modern light weight ball bearing dowsing rod using physics starts with dowsing across and marking on the ground the exact center over the entire length of the buried water pipe. Then the depth dowsing of the water line is marked on the ground. The final step is dowsing the length of the water pipe following the marked center until the dowsing rod starts rotating, where the fastest spinning is the exact center over the leak in the water line. To learn how to dowse and the physics involved in dowsing, you need to read and study the book, The Art of Dowsing - Separating Science from Superstition ($14.95), by Michael Fercik.
The parallel metal road cross and uncross, repeatabley when passing above a ground anomaly that causes a magnetic phase shift. Buried pipe or wire or void, they cross, back up, they u cross, move forward they cross again, keep going forward they uncross, forcibly. They are held an inch below the bend with no thumbs on top. There is quite a bit of force moving the rods no matter how hard you squeeze to prevent them from moving, they cross and uncross.
Interesting for sure. By the way I took the plunge and bought my first metal detector this week! Bounty Hunter Lone Star Pro was located locally in a shop!!! Today SATURDAY will be my first day as a Metal Detectorist ! Big M thank you for the continued education! Good luck everyone
Hello TC. Good luck on your metal detecting adventures. Don’t let finding trash discourage you. We’ve all been there. Have patience and when you find your first treasure, whether it be a ring, pendant, charm, chain & etc., guaranteed, you’ll be hooked. _/ 👍
I feel its metaphysical even with a detector (for me). If I get in "the zone" I get "gut feelings" that tell me where to swing. On those days I get more treasure. Reminds me of athletes that say they were "in the zone"
Ive never doused for coins but have done for water a lot. I simply cut some steel wire bend it and use it like that, my dad showed me how to find drains using this method in our farm fields, I can literally walk down the field and the rods open up and then cross as I walk over past drains, it is odd how it works but it does. I did it on a building site once when they couldn’t find a water pipe and the rest of the lads were sceptical until I did it instantly and found the pipe they couldn’t find after looking for days, then they were very shocked ! When I showed one of the lads he walked around inside an old house ruin and they crossed , I did the same and I said there is something here, we dug down and found a large sheet of steel, the lads were all in shock and didn’t really know how to respond. I think it’s the same with a detector in hand, if you believe you will find, you will find and only last week I found a hold half gold sovereign in a hunted out field with a group of other lads detecting, everyone else left the field but I knew I would find something, you just need to accept that there are things that are not understood by science, nature, and the electric ⚡️ going through the body. I can tell when thunderstorms are coming because I get head aches, the lads in work used to call me the weatherman 😂
Casper here....When i was like 17 yrs old I took part in a dowsing exhibition and it worked - couldnt explain it but we would get 5 volunteers and dealer would puy a gold coin or a watch or other treasure in one of their hands - i would be blind folded and turned away - he would then have me turn and tell me to find the item and rods did 10 out of 10...one time he told me to find an item but did not give what he said to anyone and rods just eventually spread apart as to say - i give up
I like the way you weigh up the argument. Only people who do not dowse talk about whether they believe in it. Dowsers don't need to believe because they can see it works. I taught someone last weekend who tried to stop the rods moving to his positive position. He wasn't able to and stopped being a sceptic.
I met a man in the desert of Arizona at the end of wilderness road. It was about 6 miles from an old ghost town. I am from WV and he was from the same state which I was astonished to find out. He used the method of a plumb-bob on a string and spring type method and swore by it. He showed me how it worked and told me that in that area he had found thousands of dollars worth of gold nuggets using this method. He also said he found an old gold mine that was on a property that was covered over by dirt that no one knew about by this method. Here in WV they use dowsing to find water and those who are good at it are very successful. I myself have not figured it out yet, but i have seen it personally and it definitely works for some people to find buried water lines and underground springs and waterways. Some have used dowsing rods like you have talked about, some have used forked sticks, and some have used different forked sticks of specific types of wood with a gold or silver coin placed at the junction of the forks to find the type of treasure that they are looking for. The man I met from WV would place a piece of gold or silver inside the plumb-bob to look for the type of treasure he was looking for. He was very satisfied with the results! Looking into it.
Here in Ireland all the water Wells near me were found using this method, some people are better at dowsing than other's, what the old people used to use for dowsing was two Hazel sticks they were supposed to work best. This was great video merrill love to see a follow-up.
Hey Merrill!! Love your channel and subject. Check out you tube channel Called Angeles del a radioestecia.also detect-ando paranormal .it's a Spanish Mexican channel it's about dowsin thanks all your teaching ..
I have no idea how it works, but, I've been dowsing since I was a kid. I would go to the school or park playground, and I would find all manner of "treasure", coins, jewelry, keys, metallic and non metallic objects, with almost impunity. It's selective too, I can literally dial it in to be object specific. I've had people hide things in their yard, their house, under a mattress, in a cupboard, and I've been able to zero in every time. I've even developed the ability to dowse using maps. I go prospecting and I use them like a compass to point me in the right direction. There's been times I've had people with me, skeptics shaking their head, until we find gold. I still use a metal detector, but it's more like a pinpointer. The dowsing rods point me in the direction, and put me above the target. The metal detector confirms that the target is there, and is used to rapidly process the gravel until the gold is in my hand. I've found targets that were deeper than the metal detector could detect. I've found water, buried cables and pipes, coins, jewelry, and precious metals. Living targets, that's a bit more difficult, 50/50, 60/40, objects are much easier. I don't know how it works, I couldn't even begin to explain it, it just does.
Do you need a human pinpointer a digger? If you want to come to south jersey I can get us permissions to get into fields that are 5 and 10 acres a pop. There's been a lot of colonial finds including one of the more rare GW buttons and a few of use have found other Revolutionary War artifacts but we haven't come close to hunting it out I guarentee this. If you want to lead the way I have detectors that will pinpoint over it very well and I have shovels and post hole diggers if needed. I'll get the land permissions, pinpoint and dig and we do a 50/50 split on the finds. Then we can go to the canoeing creeks and load up on some jewelry silver and gold with the occasional platinum not to mention more coins then we can count. Being canoes tip so easy there's quite a few go pro cameras, cell phones and unopened 6 packs of beer as a bonus. LMK so I can make it happen we could make our own RU-vid videos
Steve your proposal sounds intriguing, but unfortunately I don't live in the United States. I live in the middle of the gold fields in British Columbia. As such it keeps me pretty busy, not that finding colonial artifacts, or a George Washington campaign button wouldn't be an adrenaline rush, because that certainly would be. I get a shot of adrenaline every time I end up with a slug of gold in the palm of my hand that minutes before was buried in the ground and hadn't seen the light of day in a million years, if ever. I have obligations and commitments here that keep my dance card pretty filled up. The thing about gold, it likes to hang out with other gold. When I find a piece of gold it usually means there's more of that where it came from. Don't get me wrong, I love relic hunting too. There are literally countless mine sites and old trappers cabin sites scattered throughout the bush here, I've even used my dowsing rods to point me in the direction of many of those sites. I just find dowsing for gold easier, more predictable, very low key, and relatively speaking, reasonably profitable. Plus, currently I get to keep a 100% of everything I find. Thanks for the offer Steve, but it's not something I could commit to in the near future. Cheers. 👋🇨🇦
Great job on the video. Then you build your rods with my design you will amazed with the results, With silver & copper its frequency is very similar like on the E Track reads around 44 to 48 with a very high tone, As I also said when I use these rods it drains my physical energy, Kind of burns you out. I think its best used in quiet locations to focus on finding targets. I suggest going to a wooded area or large park with your rods & mark all the possible locations with gulf tee's, Some targets might be beyond your metal detector range? If you believe in positive things Positive things will happen.
Decades ago I moved onto a piece of land with my mobile home. I was told there was a buried water line in an area, but it terminated underground. I had had a broken back and digging the entirety of the area up in an attempt to find the line was not an option. Having seen a dowser work, I figured 'I can do that". Well, willow sticks failed to work for me. I took two very thin gas welding rods and bent the end of both into an "L" shape. I then put the rods into empty 30.06 shell casings which I held , one in each hand. ( I was skeptical and wanted to remove as much chance of my hand causing them to move as I could.) As I moved over the ground I held them as level as possible and all the time I was thinking: " Where is the end of the buried water pipe?" I got about 100 feet down the way where the pipe was supposed to be, and the rods crossed. Interesting. I then cris-crosssed the area with the rods always crossing at a certain point. So I dug down about 2 feet and I was within 6" of the end of the water pipe. I dug about a 1" diameter hole, and found the spigot on the edge of the hole. ( BTW, it was plastic so no metal detector would have worked.) I turned on the spigot and water came out. I sure surprised myself that it worked! I really didn't think it would work, but it did. I am not so sure that the rods need to be "tuned" with the material one is looking for, but I have not tried that. I did not put water in the shell casings to find the water line.
Have dowsed since i was a kid, learned it from my Father. It's not very hard to pick up have found um teen wells for family members for where to dig there wells hell i got so good i could tell how deep they had to dig to hit water. Use them to find keys and stuff too! had one guy that didn't believe me hide some keys in tall grass and said go find them less then five minutes found the keys when my rods crossed ,you should of seen the look on his and the other people face!
Very interesting Merrill. I have used dowsing rods for prospecting gold in Alaska. I was very skeptical at first about the whole concept. I was introduced to it in a prospecting club meeting and a guy had brought in a gold nugget and some rods. I tried it and those rods crossed right over the nugget. The force felt like a light but noticable magnetism crossing them. I had some success with it in the gold fields, I'd imagine it should work with coins as well. I used copper rods that had copper sleeves on the handles. Looking forward to a follow-up video on this!
@@MetalDetectingNYC I'm going to dig out my rods and try it with a silver coin on the surface in my yard. Looking forward to your experiments with this. When prospecting I always used them to find a place to start digging. I would'nt bet the farm on it but it certainly hasn't hurt in my prospecting endeavors either.
Hi Art from Bakersfield California and been a fan of your videos. I use rods when prospecting for gold out in the desert. It has lead me to recover more.Yet i still do testing to see the difference. As for using them to find coins and jewelry? Well i need more practice in that department. Thank u for adding this topic to your videos
My wife is a water dowser. Her dad taught and tested her on his 110 acres just as a joke. He used a "Y" shaped branch of a Yew tree. He couldn't do it, I couldn't do it, when my wife tried it, she took about 20 steps and the stick was pulled down so hard she freaked out. She said it felt like someone grabbed the end and pulled it down hard. When I tried it... nothing. Apparently just anybody can't do it
If you are a person who have a very strong sense ot feeling for special things.... Like gold..... Then dowsing rods can make it more stronger ...im a believer... I hve a rods too
This definitely works. Years ago my dad,a friend and me went out into a field looking to find the location of a land drain, when I tried it for the first time,having been told to visualise the drain,as I took 10 steps suddenly the 2 welding rods forcibly crossed. I tilted my hands slightly back towards me and then away-which made no difference, only when I moved back or forwards off the spot did the rods un- cross. Maybe this only works if you keep an open mind, maybe it's to do with ley lines or electro magnetism, I don't know, but it worked for me and I was pleasantly surprised!!. We dug down and there was the drain, 2ft down. ps I've got an old Quattro which is like me-old,low and slow, also works for me!!ha ha,cheers from the uk.
We used dowsing on jobs to find water lines and sprinkler systems.

Yea interesting video. Back in 1999 i was on an escape evade and surval exercise in a very hot country. After completing 2 in the uk on previous years in the military. In this hot dry place i had 2 copper downing rods approx 12 inches long that was straight copper inside the stiching under my belt. Which i bent into rods for using. I did this after being showed how to locate water in Scotland (leadhills) Wanlickhead the year prior. So i took these rods with me on all evercises and did in fact locate wet sand in a desert valley close to the wall in a slight shaded area about 4 feet down where we had not been able to locate any water just by sight, the sand became silt and sand and wet sand which i was able to squeeze through a piece of fabric also placed into my clothing for this use as a survival aid. After showing this to my colleague who was with me he in turn wanted to try this. It became an invaluable tool for us both and many others after we was made to demo it later our group . Later after i finished my military carrer i also put this idea to use and now use a TFR 1pro i bought from a chap there in the usa called John. This Rod locates gold and Silver targets for me each time im able to get out into my sites with ease. And my old buddy who served with me also uses his TFR for the same reason :) John has a good explanation on how this works and its the best ive heard and believe now why and how it works. Happy hunting
He will wave his sticks for so long that the poor guy will be scorched by lightning out of the blue. The work of zombies. Mine keep turning towards the fridge.
Dowsing is really interesting. Actually when you are dowsing, the rods are an extension of your arms and hands. Most dowsers are very spiritual. They can sense things with their hands. I agree that some may find dowsing being fake. But then again, it is a meta physical way to find things such as water leaks, metal of any kind. i did some a long time ago. I found out it was working fine. I'm planning to do it again in 2023. I will see where this leads me. Cheers!
I've used coat hangers as dowsing rods, it works for finding buried pipes, but once I got a straight line for a pipe and dug and nothing there. I was very PO'd, then i noticed a electric line to my house corresponded to the line of the pipe---- always look above when dowsing. Now land in Maine and the desert southwest is cheap--- because of lack of water. If you dowse and find water the price automatically goes up. If you can get on the land without the seller knowing and you get a hit or hits it might be a good buy. Remember water is treasure and can be more precious than gold. I think they have a dowsing convention/hootenanny in Danville VT every year. I always got in fights with my siblings when playing with a WeeGee board. I'd accuse them of moving the courser, then I tried it by myself, the damn thing moved on it's own, then I said to hell with that and just used a peice of paper for a courser and by golly that worked too. I stopped playing with that Witch Of Endor crap but I'd still hire a dowser for finding water. Water dowsers have references you can see their wells.WeeGee board and dowsing same principle methinks.Get some coat hangers and try it.
Back in1973 when I was 8 , in my dad's archery / metal detector store, I bent two metal coat hangers into the long "L" shape that they are using. went to the yard outside the store and started finding and digging pieces of copper....coins etc. went back in the store and had the idea to tape a quarter ..one on each rod . then it would only cross over a quarter. then taped a penny and dime on each and it would only cross over those three types of coins. It would cross from ceiling height to floor. I had invented a simple discriminator ..no batts unlimited depth. It was difficult to pin point targets and you would look like an idiot walking around the parks so I never tried them other than that. they cross over the target.... X marks the spot lol I actually tested this blind folded with my dad moving the objects in the test line on the floor. 100% accuracy. they...at the time didn't believe it would work or that I could do this lol If you try it, you can do it too.... well maybe, don't think it worked for my Dad
You had me at, I did not have any Aluminium so just bought some ( aluminum ) 🤣🤣🤣🤣 tomatoes Tomatetoes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Ps. My rod is also a very personal thing 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great video Merrill. I’m a big believer in scientific methodology, I work in a science based field. I too was quite skeptical about dowsing until one of my clients brought a pair of dowsing rods onto the job site. He showed me how to use them. I am no longer a skeptic but utterly fascinated in how the rods appeared to move uninhibited within my very own hands. We DID find several pipe crossing that day using the dowsing rods!
Really, really good video. I'm looking forward to more videos on this. You know, you need to make a joke video, and see if people will fall for it. Make a set of Dowsing rods, with a head phone jack, and has WiFi
My grandfather and father both used slim green flexible branches fresh from a tree, trim off leaves and offshoots leaving a 2ft long letter Y shape using the top of the Y as the grips, hands held palms up and closed firmly, thumbs out pressed against the grips, the tip would be pointed horizontally and would twist within your grip and point straight down over the wanted target which in this case was water, I dont know how or why it worked, all I know is, it did. they would drive a pipe down access water build a windmill and pump it up into a tank. as for the depth of a water supply, I think you had to drive the pipe to find out. Cheers!
Merril, when using sleeves or tunes for hand holds...hands are still I'm play. Rods can be manipulated by the angle you hold the tunes. It takes very little angular movement of the hands which is exaggerated in the rods movement.
Dowsing is Mediterranean culture, ccording to the American Society of Dowsers, divining the location of water dates back many millennia. In the Tassili Caves of northern Africa, an 8,000-year-old cave painting depicts a man holding a forked stick, apparently using it to search for water.Everything is about frequency( science),the rods are used as antennas to catch frequencies, each metal has his frequency, it works as professional metal detectors ( sending and receiving frequencies), it can give you depth. There is many videos from Turkish, jordanien and marocain on you tube. Here in USA the rods are known and used only for spirituality .
My dad can and does do this. So he was in his yard trying to locate a water line crossing the yard and 2 guys I used to work with were driving by and asked him what he was doing. So he told them and they got really interested and wanted to try it. My dad had been already marking the water line with stacked stones. And both of my friends did try it with my dad's rods and both found the water line as well one of them was a natural and the other did eventually get hits corresponding with my dad's stones and the other guys findings. Dad's simple answer is " it doesn't work for everyone but, you must believe in them and you have to have a bit of witch in you for them to work" . Good luck and try it without jewelry on if it doesn't work at first.
@@MetalDetectingNYC oh here’s the video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7rOqyMykIso.html it has been a while since I last watched it & yes it really is fascinating, I’m sure I heard somewhere once that they used this method in ancient times to find sub -terrainian reservoirs but nobody has a plausible theory as to how it works
Dowsing absolutely does work and my family has been doing this my entire life. I have never seen anyone use it for coins, and I have a hard time believing that it works.
To be a decent dowser, you must practice!!! A lot!!! I use dowsing to outline pay streaks on gravel bars in the gold fields. Then I verify with a metal detector in black sand mode. I finish with actual test panning to verify, then I start working that streak. But to practice, I go to a park or school yard. I get a direction using one rod and then walk with two till they cross. I use old CDs as markers and lay one down. I do that 5 times then take a metal detector and find it. It's percentage you see. When you get up to 50% your in the pipe!!! I could care less if it's a penny or a silver dollar, it's a verifiable target!! At 50% you can go to the gold fields and hit one out of two!!!!! (and you got coke money) Ever hear of the U.S. Army's "remote viewers"? Well way over half of what they do is remote dowsing!!!! The Marine Corps taught and used dowsing to find Viet Cong tunnels, booby traps, and mines in Viet Nam. Henry Gross could find you a well, tell you how far down to water, and even if there was a rock in the way and how deep you would hit it!! I ain't that good, but good enough to put some extra gold in my vial ;) A funny note about old Henry. He found out the Navy was spending millions trying to find the locations of Russian Submarines. So he volunteered to dowse 'em up for them. They laughed him out of the room till he gave them a map of the location of every Russian Sub as well as the location of all US Subs. The laughter stopped when he had pegged all US Subs location!!!! They rewarded him by pulling his passport!!! He was now a "Security Risk" you see ;)
lol Mythbusters forced me to stop watching their show, when they refused to bust the myth that modern steel skyscrapers can fall down do to office fires. Thousands of fans begged and begged them to do it.
When I was a young apprentice electrician, we were looking for our pvc conduits in the concrete floor in an almost finished shopping mall. We had no idea where they were, as another crew had installed them before the pour and they didn't have wire in them yet. All we knew was they were under the slab somewhere. My journeyman asked the superintendent where the pipes were. The superintendent said he didn't know and handed me a pair of bent copper wires (L shaped) and told me to hold them perfectly level and walk across the slab. Then he laughed and said "let's see if the kid has it." My journeyman laughed and told me to start walking. About 15 steps later, they crossed. I came from the other direction and they crossed at the same spot. I had zero control over it, and zero knowledge where the conduits were buried. So we grabbed a jack hammer and busted up a two foot square of finished concrete and tile. Sure enough, the conduits were right there, two feet down. I have no idea how this works, but it does. To this day I still use it to locate pipes. I've tried it treasure hunting and found two rings, but that is a little harder than a pipe or conduit. Again I have no idea why, or how it works, but it does. I once had a guy challenge me to find the gold at his property, so I said sure I would try it. He buried a gold nugget in the backyard and told me to go for it. No matter what I did, the rods kept pointing to a particular corner of his house. I could not find the nugget in the ground. The rods would not do anything but point to that spot on his house. I gave up and conceded. Then I find out that inside the house, behind the spot the rods had pointed to, was a large gun safe filled with gold he had detected over the years. There was probably about a half pound of gold sitting in that safe. No wonder the rods were fixated on that corner. Yes, I'm a believer now, but don't ask me to explain it. As Einstein said “The more I learn about physics, the more I am drawn to metaphysics”
Those brothers are not the brightest "myth busters" ... It's not a myth, nor does it "defy" physics ... It's called electromagnetism, and the electron cascades within magnetic field lines
its not spiritule is your hightend senses your can feel change you can sence water like you can feel rain in the air but not raining the rods do nothing its your body animals are the sam dogs all different levels
"PVC takes hands out of the equation" - nope - tilt the PVC pipes, and the wires will tilt too. If you drill/dig down far enough, there is water everywhere.
I've seen this 1,000 times over the years. I've seen people who have claimed that they supposedly found water and/or some mineral veins. Without actually being there I can't say its true or not. Personally I don't think metal rods can detect water under ground. BUT I can not say it might not be possible that copper or (al-lume-in-eyum lol) rods can't work somehow as an antenna that recieves (grabs) the earths magnetic field and they react to any change that occurs when going over a mineral vein or underground water that's moving where it could cause the grounds magnetic field to fluctuate. But then how would this have worked in the old times when wooden sticks were used? IMO if this were possible we wouldn't have to be drilling so many missed holes looking for water. And as far as finding gold? If I can dowse gold I am not telling anybody because I would be to busy digging up all of the gold in the world. This guy who said he had to get tuned to dowse I suspect he used a little booze or some weed to first get in tune SMH. I visualize digging caches every time I detect but my success rate has had a low percentage. And ironically the time I got blessed to nail a couple caches in a tree line I was looking for the other half of a two piece tongue and wreath revolutionary war belt buckle. I had decided to turn off the disc, dig every thing in case it was deep and possibly being masked. In doing so I removed a bunch of horse shoes that apparently were placed over the buried stoneware deep below it to make it easy for them to come back later and find? That was the consensus myself and a few arch'ies concluded because there were 4 exactly like it between a line of tree probably to remember the spots. Once the shoes were being removed the signals started getting stronger and I lucked out. It wasn't exactly me willing it to be although on the second I realized there's a great chance its happening again. But anyway my ESP was trying to wish me a buckle half that day not a cache which of coarse is nirmally always a dream wish. If dowsing actually works then they must be secretly digging all of the gold and keeping it to themselves. I'm just confused why give up a secret that would let you dig up all of the gold everywhere? Because they want everyone to get rich like these guys who sell how to get rich books who want to share the wealth? Yeah well good luck with that. The only get rich secret there is getting rich by selling books lol
You don’t need a bond with your coat hangers. this is running off of electromagnetic frequencies that everything has . It runs like a tuning fork with out vibrations. If you study Tesla this can be applied. Using measurable physics. wonder if two mobile Tesla coils would work?
Dowsing very real. I’ve seen it and done it myself on construction sites looking for existing buried pipe. Crossed every time. You just have to hold them lightly, and believe. I used copper. After seeing your video I want to try alū-mini-um. 😆
You would be wrong ;) That is the way you practice dowsing. In a park or tot lot with a metal detector! You get 10 old cds and dowse for 10 coins. You mark them with a cd. Then you take the detector and verify!! (usually a 3 or 4 foot circle around the disk). To start with you will run about 20% (5 misses for each hit) If your diligent in your practice, you can get up to 50% regularly. That is 1 out of 2!!! Pretty soon you can clean out a tot lot!!!! Works even better in a gold field. With every 2 hits, one is gold!!! I've known old men that with a lifetime of practice can hit 80% about any time. It is no different than playing a fiddle. It takes lots of practice before the subconscious can take control and play fiddler on the roof. Same with dowsing ;)
Can answer somebody how they was looking for gold , iron, Cooper, before thousands years ago without metals detectors.The metals detectors exist 100 years. We aren't smarter than old world was. We have different ways to looking for the gold. To the tests the object they don't create electromagnetic field because isn't in the ground for many year to creating this.The dowssing is the different on the ground electromagnetic field . The L rods is +and - from your body .When are you to the beginning of this field the L rods close on your body and to the and of this field open. The dowssers need the metal dedector like a pinpointer because they can found the electromagnetic field of the object no the object .Thank you for the very good video's
It works and you need to read on materials your rods need to be made of ,You can find them on e Bay books on dowsing to,It finds places where eart has been moved liked if you buried a pipe or someone dug a hole and covered it up.
Great stuff Merrill. About 60 years ago when I was a young boy aged around 5. My grandfather had a friend who sunk wellpoints and installed pumps for a living. He arrived at our home one morning and began dousing for water. He told my grandfather to dig in a certain spot behind a peach tree in our back garden. My grandfather told him that all they would find in that spot was the bones of his cat that he had buried about 40 years earlier. My grandfather started digging anyway. About 3 foot down he hit the bones of the long deceased cat and shouted for joy after discovering his long lost ruby ring. 5 foot down he hit water... Something true about this dousing thing ?...😁
@@MetalDetectingNYC I wrote a review on your RU-vid channel it made a big difference in retrieving a target. I recommend the scoop to everybody that metal detect.I love the honey badger.👍🏽
Is dowsing for gold coins possible ? Yes it is, with the physics recently reverse engineered. Read and study the book, The Art of Dowsing - Separating Science from Superstition ($14.95), by Michael Fercik, for learning how to build and all the physics involved in dowsing with the modern light weight ball bearing dowsing rod, which is the only dowsing rod that accurately gauges what is being dowsed by pitting the energy of gravity against the energizing of the one-tenth ounce dowsing rod load that is attached on the elevated acetylene welding rod, with being located five-inches from the hub's shaft. This precisely gauges the dowsing of all edges, exact center, depth buried with angle of deposition, and most important is grading of the dowsed element that is contained in the elemental mass that is being dowsed. Anybody can become a professional dowser by practicing the book's dowsing lessons of buried pipelines and electrical cables, tunnels and voids, precious metal placer and lode deposits, dowsing for treasure, dowsing for any element, amplified long distance dowsing from a moving vehicle, and dowsing on water from a boat.
Met some old timers that taught me dowsing. Used it to find my lost wedding rig and I'd. It was freaky. Wife busted me dowsing five piles of clothes in the bedroom. Explained to her, gave her the rods and led her in to try 3 times. She found my ring in the piles every time. Freaky but what are the odds? Also, why have I not touched them since. Freaky!😳
I myself, believe in it. I use a slightly different hand posture when holding the two bent brass brazing rods but it is successful at finding underground water pipes, electric lines and other items. My grandpa showed me how when I was a small boy.
Io non ci credo poi ci crede molto meglio metal detector da €3500 allora 😎😎😉😉per andare molto molto molto giu e trovare di piu piu piu😎😎😎 bel video 👏👏👏👏👏👏
@@MetalDetectingNYC My chicken method would find things. Every detectorist knows, basically no matter where you are, odds are very high you are nearby some metal object in the ground. So the criteria of 'does dowsing work?' isn't whether or not you can find things with it (you can find things randomly digging holes, even silver coins if you dig enough / get lucky enough), the criteria is, "does dowsing find things more often than random?" To which, every dowser in the history of dowsing has failed to demonstrate their ability when put to the test. If dowsing worked, at least one person could prove it when put to the test, but they cannot. Also water dowsing is easily explained away. Water exists in a water table, not in some underground river that you have to locate, it's everywhere underground if you dig deep enough... It's hard not to find water, this is basic geological science.
I can attest that dousing DOES in fact work for locating pipes or conduits in the ground or large voids. As far as small coins, I have not tried that yet. My theory is that the earth's magnetic field changes when there is void like a pipe, conduit, cellar or concentration of water, since the magnetic field is not going through the dirt. And when you walk over the void holding a small metal rod that effected by the change in magnetic field, the rods will move. Just like a metal detector is looking for a change in the magnetic field that it is producing. That's my theory, but more importantly , Meryl, when are you putting out video of Phil's gold coin that you teased?
some of us are just special and then theres gary and the fake detecting vids they think they are so smart that we are so stupid life is like a box of choclates
I will pass any empirical scientific testing on dowsing. I am old school and did not start using PC computers until 2018, and that is when I started to learn how to navigate surfing of the web and emailing, which is too bad because I can pass anything and everything that the anti-dowser James Randi, (failed comedian who had to find another stage thrilling act), offering of one million dollar challenge for scientifically proving dowsing can be done, which has been withdrawn. The supposed one million dollar challenge for someone passing a dowsing test was Randi's ploy for continuous money making by selling tickets for watching him being a clown on stage. It is a shame because the one million dollars would have gone a long ways in restocking America's food pantries for low income citizens. The immediate future is going to debunk the anti-dowser people while educating those who are curious about the physics involved in physical on-ground dowsing.
Same as Ouija board. The unseen want mankind to believe they have a power, but is only for those who recognize the unseen that they don’t take it as self power. My great uncle used to be able to find water for wells. Does one recognize the Creator of all when in awe of science. Good intention, serving others without selfishness, wards off the forgetfulness of the Creator for some, but not all.
