All my tips, produced great bottles for me, back in the early mid 1970’s. I grew up in And around Valley Forge, Pa. And Washington D. Boone territory. Much history. Old stone houses and barns. Some dating to 1840’s. One final tip. Locate ruins of old church, old school house, old barns, sheds…..then scan for nearest oldest tree!!!! I once did that in a set of woods right off a lane, across from my own parents farm house. I walked in thought: ok if I was hot, and looking for a shady place to just sit, rest, cool off, and drink an ice cold beer, where would I have done this? I picked the tree! Walked over! Picked best spot. Probed! Ching! Bottle ! Beer! Blown!
Great tips Kevin ! Good information for all the diggers.
Great tips Kevin, especially around critter holes.When we hunt farm permissions, look for the big rocks along the property line where they dumped everything. 👍👏😀
Love your Tips and Tricks, Thank You 🙋♀️💥🍾🏴☠️
Thanks !
Great tips Kevin ! I will remember this when bottle digging next spring at what I call dump Island. I always surface dig but I will go in a bit of a hill next time. Thanks for the tips😊
oh dump island... I remember that location. You've found some interesting stuff there
Some good tips - if you ever get a chance to talk to a forestry crew or tree planter - could be a gold mine of information. I had a cutover site prepared prior to tree planting - used a machine called a rome disc. Once the tree planters started working some of them started lugging old bottles out to the road at break time. The machine had cut a shallow furrow in the ground and unearthed some big piles of mid 1800's bottles. The planters only took the easy finds - likely still much more there but I just never had a chance to go back.
That sounds like fun picking !
Always great to hear tips. Thanks for sharing and take care. ✌️
Things are winding down here in my neck of the woods. Got some snow on the ground and boys, is it cold !
Good tip video Kevin, thanks for the info 👍
Hope you found something useful in it
Great tips Kevin
Thanks for watching, Deej
❤ the eyeball. I flashed back to a guy I knew with one, many years ago. He used to take it out and roll it down the bar. He told everyone he was watching them..LOL….😂
Lmao ! That would make a great knocker marble
Great tips another one is if you can get old land grant maps will show old property lines remind me I have an old one I was given of the area where I live so will give us an idea where dumps could be in that area I was talking to you about the other night.
For sure... the old maps can help
Greetings, Kevin: This was a good bunch of tips for the newer diggers out there.Even the veterans can learn a few things! I've done some of these myself over the years, partly through trial and error.
Absolutely... the main ingredient is the leg work. When I started, I'm sure I was like a lot of others... I thought I was just gonna go to a certain spot and they'd be laying out for me in a pile lol... I didn't realize that once you locate a potential site, then you have to play a fun little game of hide and seek with the bottles haha
HaHa, you're sure right about that.
I think that first brass piece in this video was a fancy liner for a bulb socket on a lamp
Or part of a fancy shaker
Those are good tips, Kevin!❤
Yeah, every bit of info helps beginners
Looks like old man Winter ❄️ has come to town, cooler here in Georgia too. Stay warm and safe my northern neighbor!❤
Yeah, we got hit hard a few days ago. Several inches of snow and freezing temps
Thanks for the tips, bud 😎👍!!
Thanks for watching

Also walking creeks, you don’t do much of that. But creeks, gullies running behind barns. Old houses. Old foundations, 1/4 mile out of older small towns.
All good tips. I had a clip of walking a gully, but left it out. Will use it in another video
Do you have the "Live Chat"?
I am not sure if you have to earn that or if you would have it. But I have learned a ton talking to reps from UA-cam on live chat. About anything I was confused on. They helped. i can see where all my income is coming from now....and how I am getting it.
I asked about channels here too. Asked why they allow all the view buying. 2 of the reps explained it. ALL. And straight up told me when i asked...........if someone was abusing view buying.
And in all honesty.....it was SHOCKING.
One rep just threw people under the bus and called them idiots right in live chat.
A rep from UA-cam.
Yeah, I've used it a couple of times when I've had some questions. I was starting to think that it isn't a real person though. I'm probably wrong, but they have an odd way of speaking
Good
Thanks, Carlos dude
Great tips! Have you found any K.C Beverages Ltd bottles? Found one the other day don’t know much about them.
Thanks... no, I've never heard of them. Where are you located ?
@@Travelling..Bottle..Digger Saint John. It’s a Montreal bottle but I’ve never seen one before.
@@20centscott69 interesting... I did a quick search and I would have guessed Kansas City lol... but, yeah no, never seen one. There's some odd soda bottles around these parts though for sure
Ok I lied!!!! Miners cave entrances. Lumber camp sites!!!!! ❤
Yep
Around spring houses. Why? Honey? I need some milk… could you go to the “freezer”, and while you’re doing that….would you mind taking “out” the trash? 😜
Yep... I can see another tips video in the making lol
I think a lot beginners don't realise there's a bunch of footwork involved. Exploration is key
Hello, new to bottle digging! Great channel :) Where did you get your scratching tool from?
The Dollar Store... garden supplies
Ps... I get a lot of New England bottles in my area. I'm just across the Maine border in New Brunswick, Canada
@@Travelling..Bottle..Digger Thank you for that info!
@@Travelling..Bottle..Digger I'm sure there was a brisk trade going on! What's the oldest New England bottle you have found so far :)
@@BottleDiggingNewEngland-hi4mk the oldest sites I've found have been 1880s to early 1890s...
There are, of course, much older sites around, but I haven't got into their trash.... yet. Lol
