If you look at his recent finds, they are dominated by locationless caches
which can be bagged a little easier in many cases than traditional caches.  
For example, one such cache is a US Flag - take a picture of the flag and
your GPS and record the coordinates and presto, you've got it.  There are
also two Historical ones amongst the locationless caches that could be bagged
pretty easiy.  I suspect his high rate is temporary as he gets to the end of
those kinds of caches, though there are many of them and a decent stream of
new ones appearing all the time.
