    I agree with IP and BB on this one forget the letter, the personal approach is always the best, I have about a 75% conversion rate when it comes to acquiring land, and can usually tell in the first few minutes of speaking to the land owner, weather or not I will get the green light from them. Keep it simple , ...

  Quote from: Shortstack on Dec 05, 2009, 09:54:51 PM The letter is waaaay too long.  After the first sentence or 2 your letter would be tossed away.  With the amount of junk mail we all get these days, folks dont hesitate to "can" unsolicited mail. Matt, is right.  Nothing beats a face-to-face "meet".  The ...

  Quote Friendly has Always been the way to Go when Confronted. I completly agree with this statement ! after 25 years hunting, no mater where you find yourself, never ! never ! be confrontational with someone who walks up on you. Me and a buddy were hunting a church yard in a small town near here when this guy came ...

     Yes, but youd have to be living in certain areas, finding certain targets, and most likely have a very inexpensive living arrangement.  So I say possible but sure would put a lot of stress into something that should relieve it.

  Bama my take on it is detectors today are deeper than ever but to me it seems the other gadgits are mostly hype. But lots of people have fun with them and sometimes they even work. So there ya go. digluv

  Years ago I heard of one man who made a good living doing THing here in the U.S.  I never knew him personally so who knows if the story was even true? Im thinking no, today in most cases its not possible. The exception would be if one owns a totally unworked super treasure site but how often does this happen? Even ...

  Of course, but it depends on your standard of living and if you could call that living.  However you could make a lot more money by working part time at a fast food joint.  Plus you can grab a Frence fry every once in a while for something to eat. Add in marine salvage and you could by a stretch call that Treasure ...

  You probably could if you dont mind living in the back seat of your car or a cardboard box and eating out of the trash cans, but then it would not be a lot of fun, at least for me.....................There is a lot of competition from some very experienced hunters.............

  unless its a moonless night and no lights are in the area,  your eyes should adjust to where you dont bump into things,  when you find a target and wish to dig,  turn on a small red LED headset.  youll be surprised how much light it gives off.  when youve recovered your target,  turn it off and continue

  Metal detectors have 20/20 vision, even at night.  Bring along a small flashlight, which will be rarely used once you get good at night hunting.
