Ray's Stories:

         Ray has a lot of stories to tell from his experience of dowsing. There was this one man that Ray was dowsing for, the man wanted a well and had Ray come out to see if there was water anywhere on his land. Ray searched his land for some water but didn't find any, the man then asked Ray to check by the shed. Now Ray thought that was a peculiar question, but he did anyway. As he was walking around the shed, the rods crossed at one point. They weren't crossed for any longer that two feet and one foot wide. Ray suggested that it could be an infant or an animal. The man was acting nervous now and told Ray that he had hit his neighbors cat around two months ago and never told him. Ray has also come across dead bodies along  a highway. He had heard rumors about two people that had been killed and buried off the highway. When he found the dead bodies, he found that they were both males. If there is a dead person buried underground Ray can tell the sex of the person by using one rod instead of both. With the one rod, he holds it over the site of the body and if the rod sways right then it is a male and if the rod sways left then it is a female. Ray says that whenever he is over his sons grave, the rods smack against him violently; however when he is over his sons mother's grave, the rods don't smack against him very hard.

          One of Ray's friends asked him if he could look for some water on his property. So Ray went over to his property to look for water. As ray was looking he found this one area that he felt was a lot of water. Ray said that it was the strongest that he ever felt. So Ray's friend had a guy come out with a drill to dig a hole for a well. Around 200 feet down Ray's friend asked him if he was sure that there was water there, Ray replied "I'm sure of it". Sure enough 300 feet down they found water and the well pumped 50 Gallons Per Minute!

          Ray says that in all the years of him dowsing, he has never been wrong about something, like water, being underground! He also hasn't ever been able to dowse with the stick or the pendulum.
