Georgia Metal Detecting Clubs
Listings last checked: · 5 clubs
In Georgia a club matters more than almost anywhere else. State parks, historic sites and WMAs are off-limits, so most good hunting happens on private land with written permission — and clubs are where those permission hunts, relic know-how and local contacts come from.
