FranzBernhard Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 I was out 23 times in 2023 (day trips). That´s much less than the 37 trips of 2022. There is no special reason for this drop! Franz Bernhard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldo66 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Hello, well for me about forty field trips with some nice discoveries but also an unfortunate blow from a sledgehammer to a finger which caused a compound fracture! luckily I was wearing protective gloves otherwise I think I would have lost my finger...

Fin Lover Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 On 1/10/2023 at 12:14 PM, Fin Lover said: Goals for 2023 are: 1. Find a few more good sites (not that easy in Summerville) 2. Find a nice meg (whole and not too worn. I don't have size requirements...yet.) 3. Find a cow shark tooth (this is definitely shooting high) 4. Focus more on quality over quantity. Quantity was fine for a beginner and helped me learn, but you only need so many broken teeth. Well, I only achieved maybe half of my goals. #1 - didn't look much because I spent most of 2022 doing that. #2 - I found a mostly complete meg, but I wouldn't say it was a nice one. #3 - #4 - I try to go to the locations that have better quality but fewer fossils more often. I did find some neat stuff that wasn't on my radar yet last year, so I think it's been a decent year, just not in the way I expected. 3 Fin Lover My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs.
