White's, I would like to share with you a day I will not forget! It was cold, windy, but the ground was soft and easy to dig. We started out in a spot that looked great and my buddy John had dug several bullets and buttons there with his XLT. We started out digging a few bullets and buttons but switched to another field. I hunted awhile and decided the grass was too high for me so I was headed back to where we started. I angled my way across the field and along a fence that bordered some woods when I got a nice signal and dug an unfired three ring bullet. I started to work this area and got into a lot of iron signals. These heavy iron and trashy area's use to intimidate me but that was before I got a White's MXT! This detector will really separate the trash from the good targets! Next I dug a nice brass suspender buckle. I got Johns attention and he headed that way and not long after he arrived I dug a hammered Eagle coat button, probably used as a poker chip, it was flattened as thin as a dime. This was a good sign and I felt like we may be in an area that no one had hunted. I was only a few feet from the fence and decided to hunt on that side where a large very old tree was. I immediately got a nice signal and dug a pocket knife. It had a unique design with a soldier on the side of it! I was sure we were in a little camp at that point and my next signal was very solid. I dug down and removed the sod and felt a round object. I wiggled it out gently from under a tree root, probably from the huge old tree. When I got it out I could see the Eagle and wow! I was really pumped at that point! I yelled at John screaming I have a Breast Plate! He was over in a flash to check it out. At that point I was pretty much done and wanted John to finish hunting that spot. I headed to the truck and drove back to get him when I saw him raise him arm and motion me to hurry up. John dug a nice Saddle Shield! We were both amazed at the day we had! I have dug lots of Civil War relics with my MXT, I own two XLT's and two MXT's, they are simply the best most durable and easy to operate detectors available. The service I get from the White's Service Centers is equally outstanding. Thanks again for making an affordable detector that is without question the best! Tim G. |
