- I also call myself a 'detectorist' as it is the most fitting term that I can think of. When I ask permission or am describing what I do, I usually do not use a term. I say "My hobby is metal detecting using a metal detector that will detect coins and like sized metal objects down to about 6" in the ground. When I make a plug to retrieve an object, the plug is usually from 3" to 4" across, cone shaped and about 4" deep. When I retrieve the target, I cover the hole to where where it is difficult to see that the ground has ever been disturbed." People, for the most part do not know what a 'detectorist' is but this description will usually get me into a site that I want to hunt. When I use the word 'detectorist', I am usually around other 'detectorists'.... Did I say that right??
- Ouch! Am I that transparent?
Your note made me back up and evaluate myself. And I found that of my last ten podcasts, seven of them are unrelated to anything in the book.
And since the book covers most of what I know about treasure hunting, it's hard to come up with new and different material that still relates to our hobby, after 78 shows.
