Author Topic: Newbie - Detectorists in the Bridgend area please.........  (Read 8054 times)

Hi all,  I'm new to the site and have only been metal detecting for a few months, so please bare with me.
I have been wondering if there are any detectorists from the Bridgend area, which is where I'm from, would like a detecting partner, as i haven't a clue of where to go. I have been to my local beaches, such as Porthcawl, Newton, etc, had a few £s, etc, but would love to try some different sites.
I have visited many farms and asked permission , the answer always has been  NO , they allready have detectorists on their land, got a bit danted now.
So if anyone in my area wouldn't mind me tagging along and make a new detector friend, then please let us know, here's hoping Paul Smiley

Hi ya 150 Aceboy,dont get despondent about getting permissions,its quite difficult for us all.
I look at it this way,if someone told you that in a row of a hundred houses,someone in one of those houses will offer you a top of the range metal detector,all you have to do is visit every onedont miss out any houses,n other words,find out every farmer / landowner in your area,and visit every one on your list,dont miss out any one of your prospects,and yes you will get a heck of a lot of refusals,but just keep on and one prospect will say YES !!!...once you've got one you can still go on asking,and once you get to know your Farmer/landowner,you can then ask him if he would mind giving you a mention to a neighbouring farmer..... DON'T GIVE UP..... Persistents page....good luck,and good hunting 👍
