Wondering if anyone is from around this area. Brand new to mding. Got a Bounty Hunter Camo LS for x-mas. I dont know if its a good one or not? Have found some newer coins. Anyone have tips on getting permission to hunt on private land.

Default I'm about 15 miles from you

Hi Kvaniscak

We appear to be neighbors. Santa gave me a Bounty Hunter Discovery 2200 for Christmas. I'm a "brand" Newbee to MDetecting too. Let me know if you find any good places to go close to Dawson, Dahlonega or Suwanee, or off Highway 20 towards Cumming.

I've scouted out some parks, and old home sites, but haven't really had a chance to take it out for a spin yet. Looking forward to my first find. (I mean other than the tailpipe and washer that I dug up yesterday in my back yard:)

Good hunting to you

I live in Lilburn GA, north east part of Atlanta. Been hunting since the 70s. Now I ride a wheelchair. Getting an outfit to do some detecting from my chair.
