    Cool button

    Looks like an early to mid 1800's sportsman button. They depicted scenes of wildlife such as birds, pointing dogs, deer, etc. Nice find!

    Equinox 800 first and second hunts.......starting to figure it out.

    Thanks fellas for the tips! Gonna try some of this stuff! I had time for a quick 2 hour hunt on a small picket post that I have picked over through the years. First signal out of the truck was a nice little pistol bullet. Then I found a rectangular probably carved bullet, hard to tell...

    Equinox 800 first and second hunts.......starting to figure it out.

    I think you may have misunderstood. I am not digging trash to be digging it. The site I am hunting is blanketed with nails and rusty bits of iron. The trash is in the same hole as the good target. My first hunt I was digging trash and just figured that more of the same is what was making the...

    Equinox 800 first and second hunts.......starting to figure it out.

    Y'all know the story.......Old, trashy places that you have hunted for years and hit to death with other good machines. Got a little frustrated on my first hunt with the new 800 after digging what seemed like 100 square nails, pull tabs, thin rusty sheet bits, etc. in one of my junk infested...

    New 800 coming this week!!

    Awesome! I like reports like these. I am certainly going to try the iron bias at 2 and recovery at 2 but I also want to try a faster recovery in my machine gun nail spots. I am hoping it will get me some stuff that I know is hiding in all that iron. Ive got a pretty good test bed that I...

    Thanks BHP, I hear you about expectations. I have had a lot of detectors come and go looking for the one that worked the best for me. I surely am looking forward to this one though!

    Musket ball from area that saw Revolutionary War action

    The English Bess shot a .72 caliber ball. The Colonists shot, well, whatever they had or could get, anywhere from .32 to .72 I would imagine. Awesome find!! I love finding Civil War bullets and relics but to be in a place where there is a possibility of finding Revolutionary War relics and...

    New 800 coming this week!!

    Longtime member here just getting back into it. I had been swinging an F75 for a few years before I took an 8 year break from detecting. My favorite targets are civil war relics and old home places so I hunt in lots of iron and nails. Just now getting back in to it and have found that my ears...

    Its been a while!

    Been a long time since I have been able to get back to detecting. The first day about killed me. Found a few 3ringers and a nice spur from an old picket post that I used to hunt. F75Ltd is still good as ever!! I will try and get some pictures up before long. Looking forward to sharing and...

    F-75 (not LTD)

    After purchasing a LTD, I have decided to let go of my standard F75. I have found lots of goodies with it and am still a bit apprehensive about letting it go but I dont need two. I have never hunted without the covers on it, always used a stand, and keep my machines nice. The large coil does...
