How do you deal with that thick grass?

 

[SC75]

Its hard mate. Sometimes i just flatten the grass by just walking over it or i go in between it, it does look at lot worse than it is but it does drive me nutz.
I mostly go above the overgrown area.

Thanks Bjay
Yer seems to be in the lead :|
I have one of phasetec,s adaptors and had it but did not bring other headphones
Not a total waste had a bit more of a look around and found a few more areas I will have a look at

 

[Bjay]

Definitely not a waste of time cause every time I go when the back gets a bit sore I spend a bit of time driving around looking at new areas to try. I'm still amazed at the amount of spots I haven't even tried yet. Through the lack of shallow scrapes I don't think an sdc has yet seen to many of them

 

[Bjay]

SC75 that's dedication working ground like that . I've a spot in mind that that I had a look at a year ago that looked like that and haven't been back since. You've given me reason to go back and have a crack, thanks

What part of the country are you in?
Cheers

I've got to SC75 that after finding a 10 gram plus nugget , that ground looks as smooth as a pool table mate.
You've done the research and you been rewarded very nicely, there MUST BE SOME CLOSE RELATIVE'S of your afore mentioned spear head nugget living near by.
Good luck mate .
Cheers Steve

 

[BigWave]

Jeez SC, now I'm absolutely desperate to crack the 10g mark. I've one at 7+ and one at 8+ but none above 10g. I know the guys out West and up at Palmer River will be laughing at me, but 10+g will be my godsend! Great work in tough conditions. Back in the GT next weekend (work permitting), so watch out

 

[Dignit]

Thanks all for the congrats.

 

[SC75]

Thanks fellas. I have to wait until Sunday

 

[Nanjim]

There is some very nice looking colour being found....
Thanks to everyone for sharing .....
Helps keep the dream alive ....

Cheers Nanjim

Hi here are my finds from Saturday.
Had my brother and his 3 kids ( newbees ) as well as my daughter up there as well so we had a great time. The kids were jumping out of their skin.
I am tossing up a visit to the Creswick area next Saturday, its a new area to me, any suggestions?

Scotty

 

[Dignit]

Good work Scotty.
That one on the left looks a lot like the map of Australia.

 

[scottlucky]

yes I thought the same thing.
even the Tasweigens have been included.
