Caprock Crusader
Favorite time of the year is just right around the corner.... love me some fall. The family and I spend lots of time walking the property that time of the year. My youngest boy recently found 2 arrow heads. I've been here for 11years and never found anything and this dude has found 2 in the past month. Lol
Then the wife told me a story yesterday about how the land neighbor found an old cowboy rifle that pre-dated Winchester and valued at $20,000. He found it in the crack of the caprock in a buffalo sheath and was in mint condition. Very cool!
This got me thinking maybe it would be worth a little metal detecting while roaming around the property. I know this part of the caprock had a fair amount of cowboy and Indian activity. Just thought.... hey you never know.
Did a little reading on them last night. Looks like I can get crazy at $1,200 to $200. I don't need any water/weather proof. Just want something that sees pretty deep... silver, gold, guns or anything metal. Is $500 a good middle of the road for a beginner?
What say you, TGT community??
