A detectorist with poor detecting manners

I went to the grandsons ballgame last night. As we were walking across the outfield to the stands I could see all of these brown spots. They were everywhere. I told my son-in-law that someone had been detecting here since last week. We're talking plugs anywere from 5 inchs to over 12 inches. These are the type of idiots that give the rest of us a bad name. I had thought about detecting here but would never dig in an athletic field. I use a screwdriver anyway. When the game was over and most of the people left I got my detector out and went over a few plugs just to see if he left anything. He did miss a few zinclons. He may be a newbie but he still needs some manners.image

    Did the previous detectorists at least put the plugs back reasonably well? Hopefully he at leas did one thing right.

    Detecting slobs give our hobby a bad name. Even new people should understand the basic behavior and conduct required of the hobby. Cheers, RickO
