Using metal detectors

I'm sure some of you have gotten skunked while searching for a marker under less than favorable conditions.I wonder if anyone has tried using a metal detector to help locate those elusive ones.

Always take mine along. Some markers contain ferrous metal and will set off a magnetic locator, but some do not. If the marker is buried it can be helpful, but its not conclusive, and you may spend a lot of time digging up other things. Always measure from at least 2 reference points before you start digging or you will waste a lot of time and energy.
