Ed Rogers, Author at The Ring Finders

Olympians Hunter Woodhall and Tara Davis lost 2 gold rings in their backyard.  RingFinders to the rescue!  Searching for their rings, with a cheering section attending. was pretty crazy but so exciting.  (No pressure here!)  Found the first ring within 5 minutes and it took another 20 minutes to find the other.  Another happy ending and another very satisfied customer!!  Love being a RingFinder 😊                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

On Friday, Alissa took off her 4 carat, white gold wedding band to do work in her backyard patio area.  She laid it on the outdoor table for safekeeping.  Later, her husband joined the effort and “moved” the table to clean around it.

When they wrapped things up she realized her ring was no longer on the table and nowhere to be found.  They searched diligently but had no luck and the next day bought a metal detector.  Two days of searching and frustration led her to the RingFinders and I arrived Tuesday evening to help.

My first 30 minutes of searching did not produce the ring but the area had lots of “trash” targets.  These spurious signals were primarily metal items left just under the surface from the home construction and 30 years of back porch use.  So we started the painstaking process of removing every single piece of metal from the area most likely to hold the ring.

Finally, after another 30 minutes of unearthing foil and screws and coins and pulltabs from the ground, we got the solid tone we were looking for.  Bam!

I’ve never tried to make a grown man cry, but it happened right before my eyes.  Another ecstatic and relieved customer!

Rhonda lost her wedding band putting out hay for her horses.  Once the initial panic subsided she called friends with a metal detector but they had no luck.  She contacted me and the next morning I was on the scene.  I demonstrated how the machine worked to her satisfaction.  She patiently recreated the scene and retraced all her steps.  With both she and her husband in close proximity, we started a circular shaped search pattern.  Within minutes, we heard that awesome report of a coil swinging over a solid target!  Voila, another happy ending.  She and Kenny are thrilled that they contacted a professional to return their precious keepsake.

Mike suspected he lost his key fob while shoveling snow.  He turned the house upside down but couldn’t find them (or his spares)!  A scheduled flight that afternoon intensified the need to respond and recover these keys.  He contacted me and I began to search the snow on the sides of the driveway with no luck.  The entire drive hadn’t yet been shoveled, but the rebar in the concrete was giving my detector fits.  So I had Mike completely clear the driveway and voila!  The key fob was still in the snow, but once it got over the grass instead of the drive, the Legend sniffed it straight out.  Another happy customer and another on-time departure.
