Well Bill, I subbed to you and Tammy quite some time back it has been my go to channels, I just watch , I guess I'm back to where you started on you tube or close, the camera quality is super awesome and I just love the content here, I used to detect but for now I can't get out there much any more, your videos bring it all back ! So thank you for all you do to give back it's an awesome channel to follow. Steve from Indiana. Great show today !
Nice day out in the office Bill & a good result too. Not a bad ratio of gold to junk finds. Boy...some days can just be a pocket full of bird shot. For us it is from rabbit shooters. Any gold is better than no gold. Well done my friend. I had a fun day myself yesterday up in our hills in a dry gully. Managed 4 little blighters for a total of .63 grams. Biggest .43 & a couple at .03 & a .10. Using the GPZ 7000 with the 15x10 inch Russian made X coil. Crazy small gold in a few pieces for a coil of that size. I love the X coils. Best of luck to you out there. John from New Zealand :)
Nice Job Bill! I landed my first picker a couple of weeks ago! I told Mike F. I can now change the name of my detector from the lead monster to the gold monster 😂
Everytime I watch you dig like that bare handed my fingers hurt. You must have some tough calluses my friend. Nice to see the nuggets and the relic is pretty neat too. I wonder how long it has been waiting for you to come along. Well good sir thanks again for todays post. Big,big like for you today Bill. Have a beauty weekend old friend.
I'm wondering if that is a peice of the new alloy shot gun shot that replaces lead. Very nearly our whole state is outlawing lead shot of any type for hunting these days. Still got a bunch of them for personal protection but shells are pretty much useless for anything else anymore. Seems they have dozens of alloys trying to get the same performance as lead, but "non toxic" is the label. Not so sure with all those untested alloys though. Probably will outlaw those fifty years from now by the time they discover it is worse then lead for some reason. Hope you figure it out. GL and HH and thanks for the content. Always a good break from the craziness these days. Just good old fashion gold digging. As old as mankind. Have a great one, Bill.
Sun oil company manufactured tons of stuff from the late 1800s through the early 1900s it may be a logo of theirs great wash you found there and looks like they left plenty behind I’d be taking a vacuum and dry washer there could make for a lot of fine gold.... great video glad your back on the nuggets see you on the next one👍🏻👊🏻
Great finds! The last nugget was especially interesting to me, first showing as a weak (deep) target. Have to say that all nuggets are cute! Thanks for sharing.
Sir Bill thank you for uploading these cool videos . As a new to metal detecting person I am really learning lots . I’m in Barstow California if you have any contacts to any prospectors out here I’d like to see if I can get information on the area .
Hey Bill with the GM 1000 from your experience, as your hunting do the small nuggets usually show non-ferrous or does it sometimes bounce from ferrous to non-ferrous? And as your digging does it then lock in continually showing as non -ferrous?
Steve McLaughlin yes it will bounce back and forth if ironstone near target etc. I never fully trust any discrimination and dig all targets for the most part. There are many factors that can mess it up
