[QUOTE="madtuna, post: 520706, member: 44"] Hi VGH, I would seriously consider doing a course with a reputable trainer. What you need is some one on one. Some one to walk with you to see your technique, hear what you're hearing and probably more importantly hear what you're not hearing. The main thing I see reading your last number of posts is a lack of confidence, in your gear and most likely yourself. This is a huge barrier that a good trainer will help you overcome. 9 months is not a long time. Becoming a good prospector is like most trades, to become good at it you need to do your apprenticeship, that can be years. It's not just walking the ground. It's reading the ground, reading vegetation, reading the gold, learning to listen and hear something almost not there. And of course, that all important research. Good luck mate! [/QUOTE]
