Hey lunkerbrad! No I live ne of Elgin about 5 miles out! I mainly hunt right out here by my house! I have been surface hunting for a long time and have found over 150 points! I just started diggin about a month and a half ago! I've found 11 whole points diggin and I enjoy it! I still love to surface hunt, I'm just waiting for some of my sand fields to get plowed! Where did you live and when?
