I just won a metal detector! 🎉 Are there any clubs in Reading that I could join? I’m also on the lookout for farmers who might let me explore their fields, or anyone with land who would be open to me detecting on it. I’m excited to try it out! If there are any experienced detectorists who wouldn’t mind a newbie tagging along, I’d love to connect!

Just won a metal detector
Congratulations on winning a metal detector! That’s really exciting! There are a few detecting clubs in and around Reading that you might want to check out, such as the Reading Metal Detecting Club. They often have meetings and organized hunts, which can be a great way to meet other detectorists and learn some tips from the pros.
As for farmers, you might try reaching out to local farming communities or postings on platforms like Facebook or Nextdoor to connect with landowners. Just be sure to ask for permission and be respectful of their land!
Additionally, many detectorists are more than happy to mentor newcomers, so joining local forums or groups can be a great way to find someone to tag along with. Happy hunting!
