I also have many articles written by some of the Southwest's best Nugget Shooters as well as stories of prospecting from plain old folks. So if you dabble in writing I'd like to see a sample and I just may post it here for you!

I will post gold nugget, coin, meteorite and treasure hunting pictures, information, locations, and in some cases directions to proven nugget shooting sites in hopes of helping you to enjoy this rewarding hobby as much as I have and still do. If spending time in the outdoors and finding Gold Nuggets or other goodies with a metal detector appeals to you then by all means read on....

First off it is very important to always remember to stay off marked claims and private property without prior permission from the owner. It is up to each of us to know where we are at all times to avoid trespassing on legally filed mineral claims or private property. FILL ALL HOLES! Caring for our public lands is very important and remember you are not the only one that uses the land around you and leaving it as you found it is very important to wildlife as well as following laws set forth by various agencies that regulate mining and other activities.

This site is dedicated to the electronic prospector, meteorite hunter, as well as coin hunter but all methods and types of gold and target recovery will be discussed to some degree. At this site you will find information for expert and newbie alike and my goal is to offer useful information to help you find more gold or coins and better understand your detector PI or VLF, how to use it to more efficiently. I am always interested in hearing back from you at my "NUGGET SHOOTER FORUM" with questions, comments, stories and experiences you have had that may be interesting to others. This is a very active forum and there are always plenty of very knowledgable folks willing to answer your questions. This is a valuable resource for learning or meeting new friends as well as learning where gold is being found today.

I live in Southern Arizona and do most of my hunting in the deserts of the Southwest. There are still plenty of nuggets and meteorites in this vast area to keep the electronic prospector busy for many years. There are also numerous ghost towns and mining camps as well as old homesites now long forgotten just waiting to be hunted. I spend a lot of time in the field and I will continue to update this site regularly. So Grab a cup of coffee and spend some time here and I think you will find a lot of interesting as well as useful information to help you get your share of Southwestern gold and other treasures.

I do also have a retail store in Morristown, AZ between Wickenburg and Sun City on Highway 60/89 (Grand Ave.) where I offer a large variety of books, maps, tools etc, and specializing in all types of Minelab Metal Detectors. You can order on line or stop in for a chat at my shop, but it's best to call first. Currently my hours are 3:00pm to 7:30pm weekdays and some weekends all day. Please call first to make an appointment as I am in the field much of my free time, but I will always take time out to help.

I am also a authorized Minelab Metal Detector Dealer I use most if not all of the the products I sell and can help with any questions you may have! I am not a multi-line dealer as I fully believe Minelab to be the best there is for hunting gold nuggets hands down and can show you why I can say that with confidence.
