How to Find a Lost Ring in Your Yard (Taylors, SC)
Call Dwight C — Metal Detectorist: (864) 535-4347
When I got the call, it was the kind of challenge I love: a couple who had been playing football in their yard realized a cherished ring had gone missing. Despite hours of searching, they just couldn’t spot it. The husband even tried his hand with a basic metal detector but couldn’t quite master the settings. That’s when they found me through RingFinders and gave me a shout.
After a short delay due to weather, I headed out to meet them. The search area was actually a good-sized, square-profile yard—a nice open space with neatly cut grass, making it a straightforward area to work in. And, I had solid strategy. I laid out a Jackstay search pattern, to methodically moving line by line.
The best part? I barely had to move more than 15 feet on the first pass before I got a strong signal. The ring had settled just beneath the grass line—the grass had simply swallowed it up, making it invisible to the naked eye. The couple was thrilled—it turned out the ring never made it far at all, and they were so relieved to have it back.
