Thanks Steve! You will be missed.
everyone laughed at me and said it would never last. Ive always tried to always push the envelope with emerging technologies and Ive always loved to design. When you combine the two and love what you do, its never called work. This issues cover is a combination of the old and the new. A scattering of coins, bullets, a buckle, pistol, cannon ball fragments, detectors, a Civil War umbrella ink well and an Apple iPad showing the cover design before I had received my Library of Congress registration number and the developers contract from Apple Computer. Look for the Newsstand version of Relic Hunter to appear early in December.
Please dont forget that all ads in Relic Hunter are interactive.
Some advertisements will have multiple links to special sections on their web site.

Brian Harvey I went back to my V nickel sight and got yet another one, this one is a 1902. I also scored a 1903 Indian Head and my first 1902 Barber dime. A little advice for those who dont plan to sale your coins, I use a little Bar Keepers Friend and a toothbrush to clean my coins. Its a very light abrasive that gives you control over the patina. I use it to just basically highlight the features. The weathers great, so lets getting to unearthing those relics!

A fallen hero is not forgotten

Prelude and painting by Keith Rocco Artifact found by James T. Kochevar
he U.S. Armys longest World War II campaign began in Italy on September 9, 1943, when the Texas National Guards 36th Infantry Division landed at Salerno, south of Naples. Operation AVALANCHE was the first Allied thrust onto the European continent. On September 3rd, the British Eighth Army landed at Calabria on the toe of the Italian boot. Allied planners hoped that this would pull the Germans south, away from the main landing at Salerno. Over the objections of his naval task force commander, Fifth Army commander Lt. Gen. Mark Clark vetoed a pre-invasion bombardment in favor of a surprise landing. Unfortunately for the Texans, the Germans saw them coming. Landing craft carrying the first waves of the 141st and 142nd Infantry were 300 yards
from shore at about 3:15a.m. when German shells began falling. Landing craft took direct hits, spilling men into the sea; disabled boats created a logjam. Machine gun fire greeted the men who made it to the beach. During the next two days German attention turned to the British sector, allowing the 36th to consolidate and move inland as reinforcements, including parts of Oklahomas 45th Division, arrived. But Kesselring was gathering units for a counterattack, and by September 12th six Panzer divisions faced the Allies, whose units were so decimated by the fierce fighting over the next two days that Clark began planning for evacuation. But Allied air superiority, and superb naval gunnery, finally drove the Germans back.
Salerno was secured -- but the battle up the mountainous Italian peninsula, where Germans held the high ground, had just begun for the 36th Infantry Division, the first U.S. division to land on the continent of Europe.
hile detecting at an old church yard, I found an old military dog tag. I was unable to read it, so I put it in my pocket figuring that I would clean it at home. As I continued to detect I thought to myself I wonder if it is anybody that I knew. I cleaned it as soon as I got home and was surprised by the name on it - J.P. Shuster. I was immediately reminded of a head stone in the cemetery adjacent to the churchyard that I had photographed for a community calendar a few years earlier. To confirm it was the same person I used the serial number on the dog tag to run a search of WW2 casualties. He was KIA on September 20, 1943 during the Salerno operation. He also had a brother who was in the 383 Infantry, part of the 96th I. D., and he was KIA on Okinawa in April of 1945. One final piece fit into place when I visited an 84 year old neighbor lady. She told me that these two soldiers had another brother named George. I knew George in my youth. He was always nice to the local kids and would buy us treats. I am still puzzled as to how the dog tag got lost in the cemetery where its original owner is buried. Thanks for reading about my find. James T. Kochevar, Greaney, Minnesota

Christopher Black I think this one is one of my favorite finds not in $$ but I thought it was kind of neat.
1936 BUCK ROGERS Solar Scout Badge
Editors Note: After seeing this great find, I wanted to know more about this unusual pin. Heres what I found:
by Larry Zdeb, moderator, Radio Premium Exchange Forum The cornerstone of any Buck Rogers premium collection are the beautiful art deco badges from Cream of Wheat. The first badge issued was the brass colored Buck Rogers Solar Scout badge. This badge came with one of the best handbooks ever produced. The handbook is dated 1936 & shows Buck flying with a rocket pack on his back & a yellow background. A complete handbook will have a yellow, four page, Space Ship Commander insert stapled in the centerfold. The kit is completed with a (5.5 x 8) Solar Scout envelope. To get a promotion and become a Spaceship Commander it was necessary to enlist
three new members to join the Solar Scouts. The three addresses were filled in on the yellow insert (which was removed from the handbook) and each friend provided a green Cream of Wheat triangle from a cereal box which was carefully pasted in the triangular spots provided. Additionally, a three-cent stamp was paper clipped to the insert by the future Spaceship Commander then mailed to the Buck Rogers Supply Depot, care of the Cream of Wheat Corp., Minneapolis, Minn. Each of the three new members received their handbook and Solar Scout badge shortly thereafter.
Iron Foot, UK Hi Jim I had forgot to take my digital camera with me that day which really was annoying. All I had with me was my mobile phone which doesnt have a very good camera on it. All I could do was take a couple of pictures as soon as I got home before I lost all day light. I had been searching this stubble field for a few hours and wasnt finding a great deal. Odd bits of lead, buttons, that sort of thing. The stubble in that field was still a bit on the stiff side to search so I was getting fed up with pushing my way through it but I persevered on any how. I was starting to loose detecting light time and thought sod it Im of now feeling gutted knowing you have been going all day for a few small bits of lead and a few rotten buttons. So I started to make my way in a strait line across the field back to the farm. Half way back I got a cracking signal. Dug it and to my surprise it was a lizzy shilling hammered. Now I thought to myself that was worth the perseverance. I carried on further down the field not far from the farm, Again got another cracking signal, dug it then nearly had a heart attack when i saw a small gold coin on top of the heap of soil I had through out of the hole. I couldnt wait to get home and show my partner the finds. If I can come home from a days detecting with at least one half nice find, Im a happy chappy.
I never thought in a million years I would find a gold coin. The area I detect in is just a very small village and the population must of been very small hundreds of years ago. Its quite barren where I live now but I know the villagers werent as poor as I first thought them to be. I have had the gold coin ID and its an Edward III, fourth coinage, Treaty Period quarter noble. The coin appears to be very crudely struck with some badly-spaced and oddly-sized lettering and the whole design slightly out of line. Its an interesting one and very unusual to have a gold hammered coin that is struck like this. regards............. iron_foot

Kenneth W. Briggs I found this antique Fire Nozzle. It says Elkhart Brass Manufacturing Co. Inc on the base of it. I do not know the year of this. It was found while using my Whites DFX. It was found 8 inches down. It is made of solid brass. It was located near the south end of the STH 124 Bridge in Chippewa Falls. There once was a house and pickle factory in the area that was knocked down to make way for the new 4 lane bridge. To discover its history, I made contact with the Elkhart Brass Manufacturing Co Inc and the email said it was not their nozzle. I sent back a email and advised them their company stamp is on the base of this nozzle. I will keep everyone advised. However, I was able to find out through the Chippewa Falls Fire Department Chief Tom Larson that this company started business in 1902.
INFORMATION UPDATE!
Just got a call back from the company that made this nozzle and they have not information. The nozzle is too old for their records. If anyone would come across the history of this nozzle, I would like to get it for my display case that this great old fire hose nozzle is going into.

Profile of a Relic Hunter Neil Schwartz
The harder you work, The luckier you will get!

Early
in my career in advertising sales, my manager told me something I will never forget. The harder you work, the luckier you will get, he told me. It was something I never did forgot, and I owe many of my sales awards to those nine words. It is no different when it comes to metal detecting. The more effort that I put in, the better my outings are. A lot of my free time is spent researching potentially good sites. Hours are spent researching old maps and history websites for information. Once a potentially good site has been identified, the effort shifts to working it thoroughly until I feel that my time is better spent finding a new spot. Such is the case for what I consider my best site. I have been working the large site for more than five years and each outing still produces artifacts, or coins, or both. The first time I detected the site I found some old Scovil buttons and an 1809 Half Cent. On subsequent visits I found many old buttons which were interesting finds, but I was convinced there had to be more old coins. Finally, after another two years of digging literally hundreds of civilian buttons, I dug my second coin, an 1839
30
Booby Head Large Cent. Oddly enough, that same day I dug two more old copper coins, a crusty old Connecticut copper and my oldest coin to date, a 1699 William III Halfpenny. I have since dug more than two dozen Large Cents, Colonial copper coins, Spanish silver coins, and hundreds of buttons at the site. Most of the buttons are civilian, but a few turned out to be early US military buttons as well one complete set of British Royal Regiment of Artillery buttons. For a while I gave up on the site, feeling that I was not getting enough return on my time spent there, but I decided to give it one more try early in December 2010. I had recently received a new search coil as a birthday gift and thought the best spot to try it would be one I was already familiar with. I worked the site slowly and more
thoroughly than ever, digging a few more buttons and two more undated Large Cents. It was getting late in the day. The shadows were taking over and the woods seemed to be coming alive with the creatures of the night. I said to myself that I would dig one more target before packing it in. My next signal was not what I was hoping for. It was a shallow target, with a jumpy low to mid-range signal that I thought would be a pull tab. At first that is exactly what I thought it was. It was small and oval and..wait! As the dirt fell away it occurred to me that this was not junk. It
the ground in some spots. I decided to return to the site with my detecting buddy Dale who has also found many keepers at the site. The snow still covered a good portion of the site but we were not going to let that stop us. Within a few minutes, however, Dale had an equipment malfunction and needed to walk back to the car for a new battery pack, leaving me alone again in the forest. As he disappeared into the trees I got a junk signal at the base of a
was my first colonial era cuff link! And it was intact! I knew what it was because I had seen enough posted in the forums, but rarely were they intact! This turned out to be the last outing for 2010. The weather took a turn for the worst and the snow started to fall on a regular basis. It seemed like it would never end until finally, in late February the weather warmed up enough to thaw out
tree, my first signal of the year. Out of the ground popped another full cuff link, in even better condition than the last! 2011 picked up right where 2010 left off! And only a hundred feet away from the last set! Lightning does strike twice! Needless to say, I am still working the site on a fairly regular basis, and it has given up some more buttons and a few nice silver Half Dimes. I am not yet convinced it is hunted out. I am not sure if it ever will be. I recently posted a photo of the cufflinks on a Facebook metal detecting group, and Dale commented something to the effect of Neil always finds amazing stuff. He is the luckiest guy I know. To which I replied, The harder you work Dale, the luckier you will get!.

Swiss Rolly Greetings again from Switzerland ! While detecting in a small field with the E-Trac at the end of my village near Lausanne, I came across this really exciting hammered coin. After some investigating I have discovered it is a Grosso from Milan, minted during the rule of Cardinal Giovanni Visconti (1349-1354). He was an Italian Roman Catholic cardinal, who was co-ruler in Milan and lord of other Italian cities. The Grosso was a silver coin, which was used in upper Italy during the Middle Ages. The coin was about 5 inches down in soft earth and does not appear to have suffered at all from being in the ground. It still is flat as a pancake and shows very little sign of wear. However, like many a silver hammered, it has been clipped around the edge but the legend still easily decipherable. I would class it as VF/EF. It has an R3 Sheldon scale rarity which means 201500 examples are known and therefore classified as Scarce Details: Silver; 2.7g; 24mm; undated Obverse: St. Ambrose seated on the throne. Legend: S AMBROSI MEDIOLANV Reverse: Two saints standing. Legend: IOHS VICECOES / S GERVASI S PROTASI All-in-all, pretty pleased.

Northeaster moves up the Atlantic Coast, eating away the beaches, exposing deep coins and a treasure.
by Jim Leonard
thought that coming down to Florida and visiting one of my daughters, Id have some great weather, sunny skies and warm temperatures, making hunting on the beach a lot of fun. I had made my reservations and was watching the weather. 3 days before I was going to drive down, the weather turned for the worst. A low pressure cell was forming in the Atlantic and was moving west to Florida. I thought, for sure, that it would pass by the time I arrived. Driving down, the sky was nice until I reached the Georgia, Florida line. Then it turned grey. Oh well, Im here to visit and if I can have one day to do the beaches, then Ill consider that a bonus. I had decided to stay at the beach this time, allowing me to come and go as I pleased. Getting out of the car, the wind nearly blew me down. It was like being in a hurricane and the palm trees were blowing wildly. Never-the-less, I grabbed my luggage and my detector and headed to check in. Ever notice how people look at you when you walk into a lobby with a metal detector? Some may recognize for what it is, the others just step away and stare... That afternoon, I watched the weather on the TV and the local stations were all
saying that there was lots of beach erosion from St. Augustine all the way up, past Jacksonville Beach, where I was. But wait, ... isnt erosion good for beach hunters? You bet it is. Think about it, if youre out hunting, youre going to be able to find deeper targets that otherwise would have been covered up by 10 up to 2 feet of sand! We had a great visit, and we went to the beach nearly every day. Ill not worry about having bad weather the next time. Ill just need to get a better scoop!

Tips for beginners

by Zane Spicer
1. Word of Mouth: Family and friends can be an excellent source of information for locating new searching areas; Grandparents, Aunts, and Uncles are a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the history of local communities and family property. Use this information to your advantage and be sure to ask as many questions as you can to assist you in locating a new hunting area. My mom use to tell me stories about when she was growing up all the local men would get together and play poker in a wooded area on the weekends, and after they were done she would pick up all the loose change that had been lost in the dirt. Small bits of information like this could be very valuable when trying to locate pocket spills of silver coins and lost items. 2. Search Newspapers and Microfiche: Searching newspapers and microfiche can be an exciting way to conduct research. Most community libraries will maintain a section dedicated to historic newspapers and microfiche film and are usually more than willing to assist you with scanning through the different articles. For this method to be effective, however; you have to know what you are looking for. I recommend looking for pre 1970s articles with specific information such as locations of community outings such as fairs, carnivals, church functions, and other events such as an Independence Day Fireworks Display. Locations where large
or some time now I have been trying to figure out the best way to locate lost honey holes filled with old silver. In the past, I found myself oftentimes searching homes and parks that appeared to have the characteristics that I would expect to be associated with being a good hunting location, but this was usually only based on my own opinion. This method, more often than not, only led to disappointment and if I was lucky, a pocket full of loose clad. My frustration forced me to change up my hunting habits and I begin to research areas before going out for a new hunt. I have discovered several ways to make my trips more productive while still having fun leading up to the hunt. Whether you are a general metal detectorists, coin shooter, relic hunter, or bottle digger; I think that these tips may pay off big for you.

Large amount of people + time = success!
amounts of people have gathered over a long period of time will almost always make for a successful hunt. 3. Search the Internet: The internet is one of the most powerful tools that the average treasure hunter has at their disposal. If you are someone who is not computer savvy then it is still very easy to do a simple search that can yield valuable clues about your local area. One method that I like to use is to search the history of my area using the search engine and then narrow the search to include images only. This will provide you with hundreds of historic photos of which many you may recognize the locations. City web pages can also provide useful information about the history of a certain area including parks and recreation areas, camping grounds, dumps, fishing holes, and historical locations.
4. Google Earth and USGS Imagery: Every kid dreams of finding a treasure map that leads them to a fortune in gold and riches. This may seem to only happen in fairly tales but the truth is that we are surrounded by real treasure maps all the time. It may not always be as easy as X marks the spot but with a little research it is easy to locate lost treasures. Another great way to use the internet is to download imagery or maps of your area.
Tips for beginners

by Zane Spicer
1957 USGS MAP For most maps, I like to use a government website called The United States Geological Survey (USGS). USGS allows you to download free topographical maps from a variety of different dates. I normally download two maps of the same area; one from the past and one from the present. I place these maps side by side on my desktop and compare the two looking for clues of forgotten places. Below is a sample version of how I use maps to assist me in locating relics. On the left is a 1957 map of my local area; on the right is a 2007 map of the 48 Relic Hunter November - December, 2011 same
2007 USGS MAP area. I have circled several areas that may be a good location for a hunt based on the maps information. At the top (#1), I have circled a dirt/ gravel trail on the 1957 map that is not located on the 2007 map. This may be due to several reasons but more than likely it is because the trail has became overgrown and forgotten about. This may turn out to be a great location to start searching for lost coins. (#2) shows a Boy Scout Camp that is located on both maps. This means that the camp has been in operation at least since 1957 and would be a prime area to search
for all kinds of relics. This also means that it will be easy to locate because there should be signs leading to it and that it will be easy to find out how obtain permission to hunt the area from the organization. The camp also reinforces the idea that the trail (#1) is a sound place to hunt because of its location in relation to the camp. If you look close enough, you will notice that the trail leads from the camp to a nearby pool of water. This could have possibly been used as a fishing pond or swimming hole by former Boy Scouts. (#3) is much more subtle. It shows an older structure that is much larger on the 1957 map verses the 2007. This may be because the structure has under-went some demolition and may now be an abandoned building. It will also be easy to locate due to the road intersection and it is at a slightly higher elevation than the surrounding area based on the maps contour lines. (#4) shows an older school that is still in operation. For years, school children have been losing their ice cream money on the playground during recess. When visiting a school, it is always important to get permission to hunt the grounds from the administrators office and is best to come back on the weekend while no kids are present. I always focus on the older baseball fields and around the playground equipment. Grassy hillsides can also be a great spot to hunt because children love to roll down hills and in the process they lose everything in their pockets; bad for them but great for the coin shooter! (#5) shows a smaller structure that is
probably an older home. This might be a good place to get permission to hunt or a place where you could get more information about the surrounding area from the owner. Anytime I am unsure about what a location is, I always try to confirm what I think it is by using Google Earth to get a current overhead picture of the location. If you are lucky, the imagery may show that the house has been reduced to nothing but a foundation which means that the structure is likely to be very old and could hold lots of silver. 5. Go for a Drive: If all else fails, then just go for a drive and keep an eye out for locations that you find interesting. I would recommend looking for indicators such as old structures with rock foundations or tin roofs. Be on the lookout for clusters of trees in open fields; if you locate one of these areas then there will often be an old foundation or remains of a chimney. Any time that you are searching new locations, be sure to search the shady spots around large trees were people would go to sit down and get out of the sun. It is important that you try to visualize an area the way it may have appeared 50 years ago and not the way it looks today. I hope that you have enjoyed these tips and that they lead you to successful digging. I cant promise that you will get rich but I can promise that you will have fun. Good luck everyone!
Hi Jim, Missed you at Corfe and Bedford this year. I saw some great finds made by others and made a few myself. Let me provide you a short story about my trip for Relic Hunter Magazine. Now that Ive finished the video, Ill include that link as well, so that viewers can see some live action hunting in England.
Profile of a Relic Hunter Gary Schultz, Australia
n early September, I boarded a plane from Melbourne, Australia, which took me to the UK to attend the Minelabowners Corfe Rally and the Bedford Rally. The Corfe Rally has been running for a number of years now, and I had the pleasure of attending for the first time in 2009. I guess the local detectorists think I am mad for traveling all the way from the other side of the world to detect in the UK, but it must be the attraction and fascination of finding little bits of history far older than anything at home, that attracted me to go two years ago and again this year. When I arrived at the Corfe Rally ,I met again friends from two years ago and made new friends from those attending. The following days were spent detecting various fields around Corfe and I was lucky enough to find my share of bits and pieces including a few coins. One small, very corroded coin turned out to be a part of a bronze stater from approx. 60 BC. Wow! By far the oldest coin Id ever found.
Some have suggested that the Corfe area has been detected to death and theres not much left to find,but this was proved wrong this year, with the amount of coins and artifacts found surpassing previous years from what I was told. Included this year were two gold coins found, of which I saw one that was an 1801 half guinea. As always, the Saturday evening meal, entertainment and raffle was a highlight of the Rally.
50
After Corfe, many of us moved on to the Bedford Rally. At this Rally, a new field was opened up each day and I was able to make my share of finds. But I saw a gold stater, denariis, roman brooches, a gold ring from the iron-age, etc,that were found by others. These finds show the potential of this area. Often, its just a matter of being lucky enough to wave your coil over the right spot that can make all the difference. Anyhow, all good things eventually come to an end,and it was time to leave the UK and make the long journey back to Australia. I cant help feeling a bit jealous of the detectorists in the UK,as they can detect their own land or attend Rallies through
the year and find these wonderful bits of history going back centuries. Butmy UK detecting experience has now finished until if or when I may return sometime in the future. To find out more about my trip, watch the video below.

Discoveries in the news Together for eternity: The skeletons of Roman lovers buried together holding hands.
Loved-up couple died more than 1,500 years ago. Archeologists moved by discovery.
By Anthony Bond The skeletons of a pair of lovers buried holding hands in a final embrace has been unearthed by workers renovating a palace in Italy. The pair are believed to have been buried together 1,500 years ago in a joint tomb inside the palace walls in Modena, indicating some sort of nobility towards the dying days of the Roman empire. Observers say the woman seems to be looking lovingly at what scientists believe is her partner. Together: The skeletons of a pair of lovers buried holding hands in a final embrace has been unearthed by workers renovating a palace in Modena, Italy.
The womans head is looking lovingly towards her partner It is a very touching scene and very rare, said one. The discovery was made during construction work. It is believed the pair were buried at the same time between the 5th and 6th Century A.D. Archeologist Donato Labate, the director of the excavation, told Discovery News: We believe that they were originally buried with their faces staring into each other.The position of the mans vertebrae suggests that his head rolled after death. The two couples are separated in time by five millennia, and both evoke an uplifting tenderness. I have been involved in many digs, but Ive never felt so moved. The archeological dig revealed three layers of scientific interest. The couple were found on the middle layer among a total of 11 burials at a depth of about 10 feet.
Archeologists believe the couple were not particularly rich due to the simple nature of the tombs they were buried in and think they may have lived on a farm. It is thought the mans head would have been looking at the womans when they were buried. But the area they were buried in was subject to several floods from the river Tiepido which may have caused the mans skull to roll away from the female. The poorly preserved skeletons will now be studied by Giorgio Gruppioni, an anthropologist at the University of Bologna. He will attempt to establish the couples age, relationship and cause of death. Kristina Killgrove, a biological anthropologist at the University of North Carolina, told Discovery News that the positioning of the skeletons suggest they were a couple. She said: In antiquity, it is not surprising to learn of spouses or members of a family dying at the same time: whenever epidemics such as the Black Plague ravaged Europe, one member of the family would often die while the family was trying to bury another member. Whoever buried these people likely felt that communicating their relationship was just as important in death as it was in life.
Discoveries in the news Navy widow still searching for ring.

Kimberly Vaughn makes plea on FOX
NORFOLK, Va. - A nationwide search is underway for a ring with sentimental value that far outweighs its worth. Last week, Navy SEAL Aaron Vaughns widow, Kimberly, said she lost her husbands wedding band. The band is one of the few tangible symbols she has of their love. Its not of huge monetary value, but to me; its just something tangible that I can hang onto to remind me of Aaron and my love and commitment towards one another, said Kimberly to Fox News Network. The Navy SEAL was one of 30 US troops killed in an Afghanistan helicopter crash in Aug. Since his death, Kimberly has worn Aarons white gold band with brushed finish. On the way back returning to the DC area, from George Bush Intercontinental through Charlotte, to DC I realized that the ring was gone, Kimberly said. Kimberly retraced her steps, even thoroughly searching the plane. On the second flight from Charlotte to DC I stopped the steward, he even let me stay on the plane after everyone disembarked, took the seats apart he was very, very, helpful, Vaughn said.

Brierfield man hits gold, discovering tudor wedding ring worth 10,000
By Tyrone Marshall The Burnley and Pendle Citizen, UK A GOLD wedding ring thought to date from the Tudor period has been found by a metal detecting enthusiast. Brierfield man John Bradbury made the discovery of the womans medieval wedding band, complete with inscription, on Sunday when he travelled to Boroughbridge in North Yorkshire with a group of friends. Mr Bradbury has been metal detecting for 21 years and said he believes the ring would be worth between 6,000 and 10,000. Mr Bradbury, who runs his own company called Digital Memories, said: There is a real excitement when you uncover something like this. There is excitement to think that 500 years ago a Tudor lady was wearing this ring and her husband had it engraved personally. When you hold something like this in your hand it brings the history alive, all that time ago people were just going about their lives as we are now. They obviously had some status and I can only think that the lady has tripped and lost her ring at that point. The inscription on the ring is unreadable. The find will now be reported to a local coroner and can be declared treasure and purchased by the British Museum, or returned to Mr Bradbury to be sold at auction, with 50 per cent going to the finder and 50 per cent to the landowner. He said that he thinks it is unlikely the British Museum will purchase the ring. That is because it is not particularly rare, in which case it will be sold at auction.

Never leave home without one. There are many makes and models. How many times have you dug that hole, moved your loop over the spot and the target is still there in the hole? Perhaps its not in the hole. It could be on the side. Recovery time is much faster with a probe.

Record your hunting experience and track your moves.

Most of us have a good camera that we bring along to record what we find, but how many actually record where you found it. Ive had mine for about a year now and everytime I go out, I clear out the tracks and the marks getting ready for the next hunt. Its very easy. Before starting out, turn on Tracks. The GPS will begin reading your every movement, in a timed interval. Its going to record your turns, backtracks, stops, your whole hunting experience. If you locate something thats worth a photo, be sure to place a mark on your tracks. When you get back home simply download the map to the PC, using the manufactures maps. Then you can transfer these points over to Google Satellite maps for a birds-eye view. Its a good item to have in your hunting tools.
