Default Under the bleachers by--Seemore LOL!

The park i hunt in has a chain linked area with a football field fenced off in it.For decades it was the highschool football game site till they got their own field.I asked one of the groundskeepers if I could detect there and he said I cant give ya permission because of insurance liability but none of us will bother ya if ya go in there when there is another activity going on there.I told him I have Kaiser and anyway if I did get hurt its on me.Under the bleachers its all dirt but probably full of trash so it will be a project.I'm up for it tho!

Under bleachers is a tough hunt but one that could really pay off so good luck!! Glad you got the green light on that one.

Gary, the bleacher hunt should be a good one..might have to use the little coil to get around the metal parts, but it should give you some good finds..Been there done that..also watch your head..those beams can smack you hard..Good luck and Happy Hunting......Buster....

The trash might be tough indeed. But I would guess there will be quite a variety of treasures under there. Happy Hunting! You may be in the market for a new digger after that one.

Hey Gary! Pappy has given some really good suggestions on ways to make bleacher hunting much easier. He says if you can take off your coil and hold it in your hand and the control box, too, you won't have to be as awkward in your search. Good luck under there!!!

good luck on your hunt! One of the places I want to hunt is my old grade school ball diamond, where the bleachers were, and around where the concession stand was. I hope we both do well!
