    Usually I post for the month, but today was a good day for the Xterra 305

    Headed back over to the soccer field at the school I hunt. There was a lot of activity but it was all indoor. So that left me open for a good time. Spent about 2 hours and had to take a break for a bathroom break. Wife said go back and have some more fun. Plus the batteries were about done also...

    Well finally the end of Oct and here's my Xterra 305 finds.

    With being a month of colds, being busy around the house, and work getting out wasn't the best, but here it is for October. Been pounding the heck out of the soccer field. I saw in the post we have another 305 user. Soon we'll be taking over ! Hahahahaha Happy Hunting Bruce Minelab Xterra 305...

    Since Garrett has 2 new detectors how many of you will be selling off their Ace 150/250's ?

    Since the 350 is not that much of an upgrade from the 250 at about $90.00 I'm still holding off on reviews from the AT Pro. I'm still looking at the Sea Hunter Mark II for my Maine and Florida beach hunts. Only time will tell. Happy Hunting Bruce Garrett Ace 250 Stock Coil Sniper Coil...

    I swear I'm the only one using the Xterra 305 ?

    While the rest of the world has the 705. I feel a little lonesome sometimes. But so far it's been a great detector :-)) I don't prospect, but I coin dig land and beaches. All jewelry welcome. Just picked up a kids silver ring (.925) last weekend. Along with $2.73. Well anyway Happy Hunting Bruce

    How is the Safari on ocean beaches ?

    They all work good in dry sand, but how about the wet sand. Thank Bruce

    How many people use the 9" Double-D 18.75 over the stock coil ?

    And why ? Plus a question on the 6" DD coil. Is it like the Ace sniper coil that can get close to metal objects ? I have the Xterra 305 and loving it. Happy hunting Bruce

    Xterra question

    I have, the Xterra 305, and a friend of mine has the 505. He's claiming that the 505 is a far deeper detector. If it is deeper, then how much deeper will it go. Either way I love the 305 :-)) Happy Hunting Bruce

    Its been a while since I posted my finds instead of questions

    The year started out kind of bad. Had to have triple bypass, but for the last month I've been out with the Xterra 305. Just have to love that detector. I've been posting questions about water machines but I haven't left my new toy of February sitting alone. Been hitting this soccer field and...

    Garrett Sea Hunter Mark II

    Still pondering on getting one. Right now I have the Garrett Ace 250 with stock coil, sniper and excelllior 10" x 14" DD and the Minelab xterra 305. There great machines, but on the wet sand beaches of Maine they just don't cut it. So I"m considering the Sea Hunter. Does anyone use it and...

    Question on the Xterra 305

    I have the Xterra 305 and I'm wondering if there is a good coil for the beaches of Maine. All detectors are good in the dry sand, but when you get into the wet sand they act up. Been considering the Garrett Sea Hunter, or Detector Pro series, but still wondering if there's a coil that would...

    Interesting question

    Today it seems all kids carry cell phones. I wonder if they also use credit / debit cards ? The change that use to be found in playground/ parks just doesn't seem to be what it use to. Maybe the economy is hitting them also ? After having triple bypass in May I've been a little slow in the get...

    A question about the Sea Hunter II

    May 3rd I had triple bypass and doing good, but the interest for digging here in upper New York has some what died. The schools have change to the rubber mats and places are few. I have two machines and one being the Ace 250 with stock coil, sniper, and exceieior 10x14. The Ace is still mint...

    Nothing important, but just wanted to say

    I'm glad I came over to Garrett Ace 250. Just can't get enough. As soon as I get the Sea Hunter Mark II I'll have the world covered. Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what your going to get when you go out. Happy Hunting Bruce

    Question on one of Garrett's machine

    Garrett Sea Hunter Mark II. Thinking about one for the near future. This way for the wet beaches in Maine or Florida I'll be covered. Just got back from Maine and the beaches were wet all day, so I didn't even take the Ace 250 out of the car. Any opinion on them ? Thank guys Happy Hunting Bruce

    I have a question :-))

    Golf courses are off limits, but looking for stray golf balls isn't. People lose them all the time in the woods on the fare ways. My question is to put the Ace 250 in a carrying bag to start out. Carry a golf club from a garage sale, and later when out of site switch to the Ace 250. This way...

    Going to take 2 or 3 months off from detecting :-((

    Earlier this year I purchased the sniper coil for my Ace 250. Great coil, and I love it. Everyone was very helpful in my decision to get one. Never realized how good that little puck was going to be. Took it out a few times and was very pleased with its performance, and I'm super glad l bought...

    Just had to take the Ace 250 out with the sniper coil.

    At this school I always hit for a quickie I decided to take the sniper coil. I've picked that thing clean. But today I went around the bleacher and equipment. I couldn't believe what I missed all this time. I don't know how I ever did without having The Sniper coil. Best investment I ever made...

    The Xterra 305 brought in SILVER :-))

    It's colder then a witches *%# out there today. Its damp and I didn't even know if I wanted to go out or just stay in and watch TV. But the wife says go out and have some fun. Just dress warmly, so I went to a local football field. When starting out I thought about just going home and say the...
