    Another stinker, Zincer, sinker kinda day...

    ... But I don't feel so let down today, for some reason. Maybe because I started the day with a belly full of roast turkey leftovers. It's all good. We busied ourselves with a few searches, in some scattered areas near home. One was an old spot Hal visited as a kid, another was one of our old...

    Filter questions...

    Are the Ace 250 and the GTP 1350 four filter designs? Is that why they seem to get better depth when you swing them faster? Where can I get an in-depth lesson in detector filter technology?

    TODAYS FINDS! I got some EGGS!

    ...Lately, I've been trying to come up with some new, un-hunted spots for me and my 'tectin buddy Hal to wade through. I dislike merely driving around looking for likely vacant lots or patches of woods. I wanna know, you know? But whoever said research was the key to detecting success is...

    1236-X2 STRUCK OUT!! ... and enjoyed testing the Xterra-50 :)

    Headed out today with the new-to-me 1236-X2 to reconnoiter some places that appear on old topo maps. As it happens, I got some wires crossed and the exact locations eluded me and Hal, my hunting partner. We got a lot of exercise hiking around the woods and logged-off tracts of land, but found no...

    1236-X2 Ground balance mod??

    Most of you are probably aware of the steady tream of folks adapting their Tesoro detectors to manual ground balance, where that feature did not exist before. Golden's, Silver's and so on are being adapted to have a manual ground balance funtion by those skilled and interipd enough to give it a...

    Looking for a Golden uMax in the near future - -

    I have a few things to knock out of the way first, but I will soon be looking to get another Golden uMax. I had one until recently, but like a dummy, I traded it. I have other detectors, but I often reached for that Golden first. I'd like to get one back, in time. Any one with one to sell, or...

    Johns Coin rings...

    ... A little free promo here. I got one of Johns rings a few years back, made from a South Carolina quarter. He was gracious enough to sell me one and it is really a neat and unique item. I know he is not in the "business" of making these things as they are handwrought, one of a kind pieces...

    RELIC HUNT HITS IT GOOD - - well, sorta....

    ... I suppose it depends how you define "relic." :) It looked like it wouldn't be raining hard enough to wash out any bridges today, so Hal and I decided to do a little local detecting. As opposed to the usual "drive around and look for a spot" method, I did little map research last night. We...

    Almost BEATEN by the rain!!

    I hadda go across the county to one of the outlying towns for a little business today and, of course, a detector accompanied me. As always. This time it was my mean, green, Garrett GTP 1350. :garrett: The weather wasn't cooperating, though, at least not initially. It has been pouring for the...

    Eagle II SL equivalent?

    Which Whites model is nearest the Eagle II SL in function and controls? I have one, but would like to upgrade to something newer and lighter.

    A GULLY WASHER day!!

    Short Coin Popping Junk-ette gets the Quota......

    Took a spin to dirt church this morning. When I got up, I poured a cup of java and got the computer cranked up. Then, I stepped outside for the requisite weather check. I found it was Early Morning Glorious - a sharp, solid chill, the kind that makes your arm hairs stand up. Perfect! Now, my...

    Short Hunt Gets The Quota

    Took a spin to dirt church this morning. The kids have been wheedling about how cold it is lately - bunch of cry babies. I told them they need to move to Minnesota for awhile. That'll put some steel in 'em. Matter of fact, I have family there with farms; they might could use the help. They fell...
