Welcome to the forum Fred.I don't have an opinion on the Cotton Patch, I haven't been there.There are quite few members on here who have been there, and live close to you. I am sure someone will add their two cents to this.Welcome again. |

Gotta start somewhere. Buckets is a good way to start. Cotton Patch had decent color, but its been several years since I've been there. I've never worked any dirt at Mt Creek, others on here have. |

Cotton Patch does have good dirt. It is expensive but good. Don't plan on getting your moneys worth in gold out of the material. I will say that the 2 biggest pieces I have found came from take home buckets from Cotton Patch but that was a couple of years ago. If you ever get down to Georgia make sure to go to Grissom Gold mine for some of their material.It is really nice.

I have never had a problem at any pay to play.
They all seem pretty equal for gold vs. money spent.
I only promote one commercial enterprise on this site.

(shameless plug but Shay is the best of the best)
BTW is there any way to make the banner
at the top of the forum linked to the store?
Just sayin' |
