    Competition Beach Hunt

    I am going on a competition beach hunt soon. This will be my second beach hunt. From my experience you need a sand scoop, and something to dump the scoop in. Then check the hole, if you have no signal keep hunting. I have a scoop but need to make one of the rat wire basket things. Does anyone...

    Question about smaller than stock coil

    Looking for any input about the Sunray 8 inch coil, the Joey, or Platypus coil , or the Minelab 8 inch coil. I need something that will let me hunt some trashy areas. I have heard that the Platypus is better in trash and deeper than the stock coil. Thanks for any help.

    Explorer strikes fear in the batteries of detectors at the weekend hunt!!

    My legs are so sore I can hardly walk from getting up and down so much. I decided to use the Exp2 in stead of the Garrett 250 for my hunts. My 9 YO daughter used the 250 in the kids hunt. Between the 2 of us this is what we found. I will post pics this evening. Taking Dad to VA Dr today. 1 year...

    Which detector to use for hunt

    Im going to a hunt this weekend. I was told the coins are only 2 or 3 inches in the ground. Lots of silver and tokens for other coins and prizes. Hunt is for 45 minutes, so speed is the key, not depth. I dont know if I should use the Explorer, or my daughters new Garrett Ace 250 which is very...

    Traveling with Explorer

    RAT phones

    I am sorry if I have offended anyone by mentioning that I like the RAT phones and that I now sell them. I do believe this could have been taken care of in a more professional manner. I do not like that Mr Bill whoever he is has cursed at me. I think he lacks manners in dealing with people.

    Need Help With Beach Hunting

    I just finished restoring the park rangers clock at the local state park. I must have pleased him because he agreed to let me hunt the beach area at the swimming lake. The problem is I have never hunted in sand or at a beach at all with the Exp 2. I have never found any gold rings either. Do I...

    Exp 2 strikes silver again today

    I was doing some research last night and found where a old high school had been built in 1927. The school was torn down in the late 1950 and is a soccer field today. I found a bunch of new coins and kept looking and found a few wheaties, so I knew I was geting into a older area. This was...

    Exp 2 Finds

    Went to old high school yesterday. Found a 925 and 14k cross, and a hand full of new coins. Last week I found the boyscout necktie holder and what looks like a R stamp for sealing wax on a letter or something. Anyone have any ideas about it? To clean the cross I used hot peroxide for about 10...
