Metal Detecting
Hobby Websites
Personal Blogs of Detectorists
If
you are interested in the metal detecting hobby, we have gathered some of the
most popular websites created by detectorists. Yep, that's what they did, they
went out and spent untold hours detecting, then came back, took pictures, and
created a website for their finds.
They used to call these websites "personal" detecting websites, because they were created personally by the detectorist. You will find these websites easy to browse, and full of tidbits of information and great finds. Now they have the advantage of creating a personal detecting diary in the form of blogs.
Below are some of these websites and blogs that we came across as we were browsing the web.
Follow the links and Happy Hunting!
