    I Spent My Holiday Weekend...........

    Cutting fire wood! I had dreams of spending my three day weekend metal detecting, but, My father in law had some trees cut down in his back yard and wanted me to come get the wood. We put in a wood stove last year when fuel oil hit $4.00 a gallon. So, I couldn't pass up all this free locust...

    Went on my first ever night hunt

    CWILK - You inspired me to try a night hunt so I went out last night for a short 1 1/2 hour hunt. The back light on my 1350 worked great and the LED light on my PP worked like a charm in the holes. I did wear a head lamp that I would turn on intermittently when I felt like I needed it. I haven't...

    GTP 1350 + Old Sports Field = ?

    I traveled about 15 miles to a little town and an even littler sports field. I hunted for about an our and I only got 2 quarters, 2 pennies and 1 dime, all clad! This sports field is really old, with old bleachers and a concession stand. I think I will go back with my 9X12 coil and hunt for some...

    Used Metal Detectors

    I know this isn't the forum to sell used metal detectors. I saw the 1350 for sale, of which I thought was a good deal, so I went to the classified forum and was surprised to see a Whites Vision for sale already! That is their new top dog detector isn't it? I don't know the situation as in why...

    Did the ring dance!

    I followed my GPS to a park just 4 miles from my home, that I didn't even know was there! It was a small park without any playground or picnic tables, but I hunted anyway. About 20 minutes into the hunt I got a solid quarter hit at 3 inches and out popped this silver and turquoise ring! I also...

    GPS!

    The wife and kids gave me a Garmin Novu GPS for Father's Day. I love it. It has an entertainment feature and when selected it will find you all the parks, schools and fairgrounds in like a 100 mile radius of where you are. What an awesome little gadget. Then when you pick a location it will...

    GTP Coil Question and HAPPY FATHERS DAY!

    Hey all, Can anyone tell me if I would get "a little more depth" with the double "D" 10x14 coil? I know it's for highly mineralized soils. But, would I get more depth in low mineralized soil as well? I have a lot of big open spaces here to hunt, ie soccer fields, farmers fields, old fair grounds...
