Lost Wedding Ring Katy, Texas

Wedding Ring Lost when ATV Adventure Goes Wrong.

02/18/2016

I was contacted by MVP Skeeters’ Baseball Player Travis Scott regarding his lost wedding ring. Travis said he and his wife (newlyweds) had been out on his ATV (4 wheeler) riding and  enjoying the nice weather. Travis said towards the end of the ride they crossed over a small ditch, and had gotten stuck. The ditch was deceiving in appearance and should rightfully be called a bog.

Travis said as they began to cross the water filled ditch the ATV sank and became stuck in knee deep mud. Travis said he dismounted the ATV and attempted to free it by lifting the rear-end out of the mud. Travis said he had no success and later used his truck and a tow strap to pull the ATV out of the mud.

Travis said a short time after getting the ATV stuck and cleaning the mud of his hands he discovered his wedding ring was missing. It was believed it came off in the ditch while he attempted to free the ATV.

02/20/2016

Travis and I conducted a search for his ring today and after a couple of hours we called it quits. The ditch was searched extensively with only a few aluminum cans and couple of pulls tabs being discovered. I was confident at the conclusion of the search, that his ring was not in the designated search area or beyond.

Travis was a go getter, right there in the mud, and it was obvious from the get go, neither of us liked to loose!

Men’s Opal Ring Lost in the Hills of Los Angeles, CA…Found.

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)

P1000079P1000077

I received a call from Adam yesterday about a ring that was lost at his house about a month and a half ago during a corporate party. Apparently one of the guests was taking a swing at a pinata when his ring flew off of his extended forefinger. I knew that the ring, if lost in the yard wasn’t going anywhere, so we planned on me coming to search the area today. It was then he sent me a text picture of the area they thought the loss occurred, which gave me pause. The house was situated on the hillside with a ravine that went down probably four hundred feet of steepness. I knew then it would be a tough search.

When I got to the house, which was pretty awesome, it was a big castle with a swimming pool moat and all, I met with Adam. He wasn’t able to describe the ring, but told me it was a big one. He explained what had happened, and where they believed the ring went flying. Hoping though that it had landed in the yard and not on the hillside, I decided to search the area in the yard first, to no avail. I then went out to the hillside and began working in the bushes nearest the fence, and worked my way down. The footing was very tenuous, so the going was slow. I was surprised at how much metal was in that hillside, and much of it sounding like what I was looking for, so digging all of that slowed me considerably more, and my legs were aching, but I kept going, sometimes with my feet sliding out from under me. I was going down to a shelf about a third the way down and finish there, because the hill steepened below the shelf and looked unsafe for me to go further. I finally got down to the shelf, and began my slow assent back to the house further to the side I had not detected on the way down, detecting as I went. I got about halfway back when I saw this beautiful glimmer of gold in the mid day sun. The ring was sitting right on top of the ground waiting to be picked up. I reached down and picked up this awesome men’s opal ring, and knew I had found what I was looking for. Adam was very happy that he would be able to get the ring back to its owner, as was I., Had a great day, a wonderful search and recovery, and there will be smiles that I won’t see, but know they will be great.

If you lose your ring or other metal item of value, call as soon as possible. I will work hard to help you find what you thought might never be found again. I search,  Beverly Hills, Hermosa Beach, Huntington Beach, Long Beach, Los Angeles, Malibu, Manhattan Beach, Newport Beach, Rancho Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Santa Monica, Seal Beach, Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, Torrance, Venice Beach, and all parks, yards, gardens, and ponds (to 5 foot depths) in all of Orange County, all of Los Angeles County, and Ventura County.

Lost Gold Wedding Band in Hanauma Bay…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

Buds ring HB2
Buds ring HB
This ring hunt began in May 2015 when I responded to a craigslist ad from Colorado native Justin (Bud) Downer who lost his Gold Wedding Band while snorkeling in Hanauma Bay. I filed a Special Activity Permit to Metal Detect in the waters of Hanauma Bay sand areas only. After approval I went to work looking for Bud’s ring. I was unsuccessful finding Bud’s wedding band however found other rings. A few months later in August I acquired another permit to search for another White Gold Wedding Band. This was right after Hurricane Guillermo waves pummeled the east shore of Oahu and into Hanauma Bay. Don Bryant my fellow ring finder came along with me on this hunt and low and behold he found Bud’s ring in the vicinity Bud sent to us on a Google Earth map. We both think the turbulence created by the hurricane pushed the ring off the reef and into the sandy area as I searched the sandy area very thoroughly the first time. Needless to say Bud was pleasantly surprised when I informed him of Don’s successful search. Currently I have 4 ring search requests for Hanauma Bay however they have stopped issuing permits. Its awful when I have to tell tourists and locals I’m no longer permitted. We are hoping that the Division of Aquatic Resources (DAR) changes their mind in the near future so I can put a few more smiles on faces. Aloha to Bud.

Ring Lost at Trapeze School .. Santa Monica, CA. .. Found Under Pier

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

image

Friday night Philip had been attending a session at a Trapeze School of New York located on the Santa Monica Pier. They have a place to put their street shoes and valuables. Unfortunately, when Philip retrieved his ring from his shoe, where he had put it while training on the trapeze, he dropped his palladium wedding ring on the wooden pier. It bounced and rolled right through a crack in the planking dropping 25 feet to the dry sand below the pier.
The city beach maintenance department attempted the look for the ring the next day, thinking it may have landed one of the maintenance catwalks or hung up in the netting used to control pigeons nesting under the pier. After not finding the ring the city crew suggested Philip Google search TheRingFinders.com online.
Philip contacted me explaining what happened and that he would not be available to meet me at the location, but he would be able talk to me on the phone if I had any other questions. I called him as I got close to where I thought he first described to me. He talked me into finding the location of the Trapeze school. They showed me where the ring had fallen through the pier. This pier is probably 300 ft wide and I had to take some reference points, hoping get near the exact location under the pier.
It was dark and spooky under the pier, definitely a place not to be at night. There was a lot of electrical interference with my metal detector, but I was able to tune most of that out with a few adjustments. Twenty minutes of searching was all it took to find the ring.
I sent Philip a photo of his ring and I was able to return the ring an hour later. It was great to see how happy he was to get his ring back where it belongs.

Ring Recovered .. Saturday  1-30-16

Equipment Used:  Minelab CTX 3030 metal detector

Wedding Ring Lost at Hermosa Beach, CA…Found.

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)

P1000075P1000074

I had just gotten home from 4 hours of surfing, when I received a call from Sam asking for help to find a lost wedding ring at the beach. Knowing the importance of getting right on it, I told him I would leave immediately and arrive within half an hour or so.

When I got to the spot Sam met me there and showed me the area where he believed it was lost. It was a volley ball court, so I was thinking he was hitting the ball when he lost his ring. So I was figuring flight patterns of where his ring might have went, when he told me it wasn’t his ring, but a client’s, as he is a personal trainer who was putting her through a work out earlier this morning. He then pointed out the patch of sand they were using, and I got right to work. After about 15 minutes, and a little outside of where Sam thought it might have been I got a real good tone in my head phones about one inch under the sand. I put in my scoop, and out comes this real pretty ornate ring.

It was great to make his day, and I am sure his client’s day. This is what it is all about, to know the story of the ring continues, and smiles all around.

If you lose your ring or other metal item of value, call as soon as possible. I will work hard to help you find what you thought might never be found again. I search,  Beverly Hills, Hermosa Beach, Huntington Beach, Long Beach, Los Angeles, Malibu, Manhattan Beach, Newport Beach, Rancho Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Santa Monica, Seal Beach, Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, Torrance, Venice Beach, and all parks, yards, gardens, and ponds (to 5 foot depths) in all of Orange County, all of Los Angeles County, and Ventura County.

Family Heirlooms Rescued after House Fire (Houston, Texas)

Family Heirlooms Rescued after House Fire (Houston, Texas)

100 year old Gold pocket watch and two sentimental bracelets.

02/01/2016

I was contacted by a homeowner who said she was searching  the internet for information on how to rent and or use a metal detector. The homeowner said she came across « The Ring Finders » on the web and placed the call.

The homeowner said her mothers home had recently burned, and they were preparing to sell the house. She said before doing such, she desperately wanted to find a very important family heirloom, her fathers Gold Pocket Watch. The homeowner said, she was sure the watch and few other precious family heirlooms had been placed in the attic several years back, when the home was threatened by rising flood waters.

The homeowner said following the fire, a decision was made to sell the home and find an alternate living place. She said, she could not let go of the hope that even after all of the destruction of the fire she might find her fathers pocket watch.

02/03/2016

I met with the homeowner at the residence in Houston today to search for the lost pocket watch and the two other sentimental bracelets. The fire had devastated the interior of the home, and with a close examination of the remaining structure it appeared solid enough to conduct the search.
