I got a call Monday night from Randy who had lost his most valuable USC Trojans class ring. He had just returned from a 3-week trip and had been in his backyard at his Stevenson Ranch home throwing some oranges over the fence onto the hillside below. On one throw he felt his ring fly off and he heard a loud « clang » as it hit the fence and disappeared into the brush below. He and his son began to look into the bushes and knee high grass but no ring showed up so Randy turned to google.

After a few minutes Randy found Dave The RingFinder and he gave me a call. Randy had a ton of questions for me and I answered all of them as best I could and we agreed to meet the next morning at 8am.

After I arrived Randy showed me around and the areas he thought the ring would have likely ended up in and so I hopped the fence and turned on my Minelab Manticore and proceeded to cover the hill. I remembered too late that it is always better to detect uphill on the slope but quickly figured it out as I fell and slid down the hill. Lesson learned. After covering the area Randy had begun to lose hope and I told him not to worry that if it was there I was going to find it. I stopped to pray about the ring and I was told to go down the hill.

I tried to reason with God why I should continue to search the bushes and grass but the overwhelming message was clear, go down the hill. So I proceeded to move lower and began to search under these large bushes well down the hill. There was one left but it was to the left of the property line but I had looked everywhere else so I put my detector under it and got a loud signal. I got on my hands and knees but I still couldn’t get close enough so onto my belly I went and slid under the bush. There it was in all it’s glory! Randy’s 1982 USC Trojan ring! I laid there, threw up the « V » for victory and praised God and started to hum « Tusk ».

Since Randy had lost hope I had the chance to suprise him so climbed back up and over the fence and met him in the kitchen. I told him I wanted to shake his hand before I left and I flashed him the ring and he let out with a loud ‘Fight On » and some other words as he realized that he and SC were back again.

If you accidentally lose your ring throwing and orange or even throwing a fit, call or text Dave The RingFinder.

Yesterday, Juan reached out to Dave MacDonald—known as Dave The Ring Finder—about a heartbreaking situation: his fiancée had lost her engagement ring at the lower lagoon swimming area of Castaic Lake.

A Heartfelt Reunion: Recovering a Lost Wedding Ring After 14 Years in Santa Clarita

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)
Title: Dave MacDonald: Lost Ring Recovery in Santa Clarita Yards & Hillsides
Months ago, Stephanie emailed me about a lost treasure: her father-in-law’s wedding ring, missing for 14 years in their Santa Clarita backyard. Today, I met Sheryl in Valencia, hearing how it likely slipped off during a yard-mowing session gone awry due to a medical tweak. As Dave MacDonald Ringfinder at davetheringfinder.com, I specialize in lost ring recovery and metal detecting in the grass, yard, hillside, and garden across Saugus, Newhall, and beyond—I was ready to dig in.
The Canyon Country-like yard was a maze of grass and soil, littered with nickels and can slivers. I’ve scoured Acton hillsides and Agua Dulce gardens, so I methodically gridded the space with my metal detector. Near the end, a faint 13-15 signal hummed in Lancaster-style terrain. Eight inches deep, past Palmdale sod layers, I unearthed the ring—a relic of love lost in a Quartz Hill backyard. Sheryl’s tears turned to joy as I handed it over, a miracle 14 years in the making.
