Fun with Jim - YouTube Channel

Welcome to the Fun with Jim,  my name is James Petty.  I am a former Golf Professional; I worked for a very exclusive Country Club in Newport Beach for 10+years. In January of 2004 I started my own computer repair company that grew very rapidly, I sold off the company in 2016.

I did not get to enjoy much time off as I was quickly offered a position as the CFO for a leading construction company.  Currently I am the CFO only for the same construction company but now get to enjoy time off a little bit more as I no longer work on Friday's and I use that day off to have fun.

That is how Fun with Jim was created, I like playing golf, metal detecting, surf fishing, surfing, exploring and treasure hunting

I started metal detecting the beaches of Southern California on my own in 1984 when I purchased my Whites 5900 and PI 1000. Over the past 40+ years I have developed several of my own techniques on how to have success metal detecting and I have found enough great things to support my hobby.

Note: There is a $250 charge for any lost item recovered regardless of the item value.

I will be hosting a few private outings in 2025 all taking place on Fridays and they are all day events.  I will be creating a schedule and offering up chance for my subscibers to join me on these treasure hunts.

If you would like to go on a metal detecting treasure hunt with me please send me an email or comment in one of my videos as I read and respond to every single comment.

Starting, in 2025 I would like to make my channel grow and I am trying to use my metal detecting finds to support my channel.

If you have seen anything you would like to purcahse or would like to donate to my channel please send me an email.
