So.......I need some advice....it seems im getting no response when i make enquiries to seek permission to metal detect, can i ask whats wrong? Im quite new to the hobby, but definitely not new to the countryside, and the dos and donts that go with it....do metal detectorists in general have a bad reputation with farmers for not treating the land properly? , trampling standing crops , leaving unfilled holes in pasture , gates left open etc ? It appears from what i have read some detectorists see it as a " get rich quick" scheme, instead of the love of history it should be... I just wish someone would give me a chance...I realise countryside communities can be a bit " closed" , when I was first introduced into the keeping/beating team at the local shoot when i was younger it took a while to be accepted in, but once there it was a great place to be and the best few years of my life... any advice appreciated .all the best
