    Lady Shadow Prototype?

    I recently came across a X2 but it only had a Tesoro 8' coil. I asked the guy where was the Shadow coil ?? He said that was the way he got it in TX at a hunt. Anyone ever hear of something like that ?? It was the coil that made the X2 such a great machine. HH Donna

    Spent the last few years in FL and saw all the schools fenced in. Just takes one crazy person to ruin for everyone. Thankfully I would hunt in the grass in Fl for all the tea in China. Stepped in a fire ant nest one year and it was God awful. Too many bugs and other critters !!!! I have a...

    I remember hunting the HS omce before but way back when. I found a good amount of quarters back then, But beach detecting was easier digging and there was always gold to be found. Now that there's not much at the beach, its more fun digging at the HS. Only problem is too damm hot right now...

    I recently acquired a Nox 900 with the 6" coil. Found a HS that is loaded with quarters. It almost feels like virging territory. I Know ther ehs to be some gold in this school yard. Just got to wait til the grass dies. Digging in crabgrass is very tough. Can wait til temps cool down. HH...

    When i first started detcting back in Y2k !!! :))))) Someone told me me, 'if you are not digging nickels, you are not finding gold !!!!' I didnt have a meter for many years until the Nox came out. With good TID you can now pluck out the nickels vs pull tabs. Guess what, Still have found a...
