    Took a day trip to a place called Happy Valley here in NY...It is a ghost town/NYS Wildlife management area... There have been many tales about this place...It is said it was settled by the French in the 1820s-1830s, after the French and Indian war. Then in the 1930s, the townsfolk just all...

    Another hour hunt with the Quantum II

    I went to my good old Woods Field...A field I have hunted to death...I still find things every time I go...It is so big that it will NEVER be hunted out. They also hold an annual Field Days there, so it replenishes itself...The section I was hunting I have hit pretty hard this year, and the...

    Took the New QII for a spin yesterday...I LIKE IT!!!

    Did not cover too much ground, was too busy messing with settings and such...I was amazed that I could crank the SENS up all the way and also the FREQuency and the machine remained stable...The GB was a breeze, and the threshold hum was sweet music to my ears...The IDs were dead on, and I was...

    FS-BH Discovery 3300 w/3 Coils and Orig. Box

    This detector was bought in June, and did a great job of finding some DEEP targets, but I was looking for something a little different... I have had the 4" coil ever since I owned a Pioneer 505 4 years ago, so it shows some wear...The 10" and 8" coils are 2 months old... With the 10" coil, this...

    2 wheats at 10" in same hole

    Well, my theory is getting proven more and more each time I experiment with the Discovery 3300. I put the 10 inch coil on the beast today and after a good ground balancing, away I went in a field I have hunted at least 25 times with the White's Classic II and the BH Land Star. I got a good solid...

    A Good Evening Hunt with the Discovery 3300

    This detector is not so great in wet grass, but in dry grass and tot lots, it is a killer... Here is my take from a park I previously hunted with the LandStar Most targets were 5-6" deep in the grass around the lot...Mostly pennies in the wood bark...Hunted for about 1 1/2 hours with 4" coil...

    Fisher 11" DD on a Discovery 3300

    I have read time and time again that the 11" DD coil from a Fisher F2/F4 will work on the Discovery 3300. Has anyone ever tried this, and does it work??? Are ID and depth readings still accurate? $150 seams like a lot of money to spend if it does not work... Thanks,

    Another old site...Another bust

    I just do not get it...We go to these old sites in my area, and all we find is junk and clad...I know our machines are more than capable of finding the goods, but It just never happens...I use the Discovery 3300 with 8 and 10 inch coils, and my buddy uses an XLT with 9.5 and 5.3 coils...I find...
