DSTH HUNT RULES

1. ALL PARTICIPANTS AGREE TO ABIDE BY THE HUNTMASTER DECISIONS.
2. Annual DSTH hunt badge MUST be worn to participate in any hunt. NO EXCEPTIONS.
3. Digging rules
   
   • Small digging tools only (i.e. kinves, probes, blade type diggers). Absolutely NO hoes or picks.
   • Fill Your Holes!!! You will hear this one over and over. Smith Lake Park is gracious enough to let us hold the hunt on their fields. If we tear up the hunt fields and leave a lot of holes, the park may not let us return next year.
   • No help digging (i.e. only one person per detector) unless specifically allowed by huntmaster.
4. Headphones are required.
5. Hunt fields.
   
   • Do not enter any hunt fields until time of the hunt, even without a detector, as some targets may be visible.
   • When taking positions around a field at the start of a hunt, if you are crossing the field, please carry your detector with the coil up . In other words, try to avoid even any appearance that you may be trying to locate targets before the hunt starts.  That would cheating, wouldn't it!
