    rats VS pro golds

    Would like to hear from folks who own, or have owned BOTH the pro golds and ratphones. Your thoughts on both good, bad, whatever. Did you chose one over the other....and why. I know there are many good others, but would like to keep the thread focused on just these two. Thanks , Dan

    A Barber Quarter Saves The day.

    Went on another trip to find a cellar hole.....found it. It turned out to be at least four cellar holes and some other ruins. A big home site. It was easy to get to and I think it was detected to death. I did not find one target worth digging. This has NEVER happened before. No buttons, no...

It is about an hr from my house and I thought there might be a chance I could find it and there might be something left if it had already been detected. I was...
