First I would like to say hello to all. Please forgive my spelling in advance as it is not the best and my auto spell correct is even worse. I have only been detecting a couple of years and for the most part the people I have ask to detect or treasure hunt on have been very nice and friendly. I have had a few on the other hand not as much, some down right ugly about it. I have read post and heard stories of how some people get very upset if they even know you pertisapate in this hobby. My question is “WHY"? As long as no open holes are left or nothing disrespectful has been done why is our hobby so hated? If someone could help me understand I would really be grateful. Thanks KyRidgeRunner.

    Welcome from New Mexico.     Hated?   Not so much as Envied.   Some folks are just grumpier then others.     Cheesy

Hello, Ky!  Welcome to the forum from Oregon!   Welcome

As to why some people don't like treasure hunters is like Homefire said, "Some people are just grumpier than others."
Some have had bad experiences with so called "treasure hunters" who either didn't get permission to be on the land, or dug and left holes...  all kinds of reasons.  Some landowners don't understand the whole metal detector/treasure hunting thing.  Some may have buried their own treasure and don't want anyone else to find it. Who knows.

Welcome to the forum, anyway!  And good luck.
