The first time I ever saw this done was in a community college class (evening) by a lady that worked in some highlevel government science program...ie...a very educated individual and scientific minded. She was talking/demonstrating "finding" metal objects kinda/sorta like metal detectors do. When she started talking and doing her show & tell I thought "what a waste of our time by such a smart person."
I DID NOT BELIEVE HER AND TRIED TO FIGURE OUT HER MAGIC TRICK.
After class, several people stayed to talk further with her. I then dropped my wad of keys on the floor and tried it...IT WORKED!!
Several days later, I tried it over a incoming water line...marked each spot and marks pretty well lined up.
THIS IS MY THEORY: It detects where there has been some underground disturbance of the soil...ie...water line ditch/trench, etc. As for the "metal" finding...don't have a clue.
I've never tried the apple/peach limb thing and only tried to locate water for a well one time. I was within 10 ft. of where a 200 ft. well was later drilled that produced 10+ gal/minute. A "pro" had gone ahead of me a few days before. I made NO ESTIMATES on depth of water.
I read a book one time about this and "belief in yourself" seemed to be the answer. I still don't "believe", but have seen it in my own hands.

Some have been very good, some have been well, disappointing to say the least. But no matter how good or bad auctions may be, we always seem to stay until the item we've come for or are interested in is on the block. I've been to some auctions near and far. I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
