    Hey Bama Dave. Good theory on the ice house. There were several of them around and found it odd that they were perfectly round. Many "cellar holes" usually maintain a square shape some sort. Nice catch and thought! The hobby always keeps you wondering! appreciate the view and the comment!

Ron not to change the subject, but I have lost track to how many detecting channels I am subscribed to, including the big one's, and they have all found some awesome coins. But none of them will ever match your video on the gold dollar coins you guys found at night, still unbelievable, no one comes close.

    Love the channel! I'm looking for suggestions on film equipment and gear. What do you use...camera, tripod, chest mount, selfie stick, head mount, etc? I'd love to hear some input. I tried to film a little bit today with my phone on a tripod, but found it to be awkward while trying to tote a shovel lol. I'd like to see a quick video on how you film and what gear you use if you think other folks would want to watch something like that! Thanks for the great content!

    Appreciate the nice comment. Wish I had a great list but no major production here. iPhone 14 Pro. That’s about it. 😂 hand held and I just talk. Live digs with one hand can be tricky 🤪but I’m not trying to be a professional channel. Just a digger that records a few goodies. I use video studio to edit my videos but they are all pretty much in the same style. I like having the memories to look back on and if others enjoy them that’s a cool bonus! Wish you success!! I like the name!!👍🏻
