FLORIDA METAL DETECTING CLUBS > back

Visit these club websites as each has useful information regarding the hobby, but their greatest value are the members that have experience and can offer advice, friendship and a loyal hunting partner. I have met many detectorists in a park or at the beach that are loners who avoid clubs. I don't quite know why, as every detectorist has something to offer to enrich a club. Supporting a club IS supporting the metal detecting hobby.
