    2 Barbers and an Indian Head today...

    I am continually amazed at this hobby and how it works sometimes. I was out on a relic hunt today and as luck would have it walked up on what appeared to be an old home site. I figure it was once a home site because there was a rock wall, evidence of an old driveway and plenty of what could have...

    GBSE does the job!

    I've had my GBSE for about 3 months now and since I also have an F75 I haven't really been using the GB that often. I went to a civ war camp this past weekend and purposely used the GBSE. It pulled a couple bullets and some camp lead (photo below) but the site has been pounded for years. I took...

    OK guys...15x12 SEF coil for the F75 worth adding to the mix?

    Can't seem to find much in the way of reviews or feedback on the 15x12 SEF on the F75. Just curious if it will make much difference for relic & coin hunting. As always, thanks for any info! Curt

    GB SE 29 gets it's first silver !

    I found myself just sitting around home on "Black Friday" morning wishing I could go detecting somewhere. The wife and daughters had left home around 2:45am to go shopping (Yuk!) and I hated to waste all the peace and quiet but I needed a detecting fix real bad! About that time my cell phone...

    Clamp-On handle for a straight shaft?

    Anyone know where you can buy the clamp-on handle for the straight shafts? I've seen several of these around but haven't been able to locate a place to buy one. Is it a bicycle part? Thanks, Curt

    Whites BHID or BHID 300?

    Ok, which is the better of the two in salt water? I have seen and found several of the BHID machines with the black coils for sale in the 400.00 + range. I haven't found a used BHID 300 so I'm considering buying a new one for several hundred dollars more. That being said, which one will be my...

    Sunray Probe FX- 1 Mounting on F75 ?

    Please forgive my ignorance but I just purchased a used Sunray FX-1 probe for my F75 and I'm wondering how it should mount. I assume the switch box is placed just forward of the control box of the machine. Should the actual probe be mounted between the control box and the arm cuff to the inside...

    Excal1000 vs Excal II

    Howdy folks, I need to tap into your knowledge base regarding the Excal machines. Can anyone tell me the differences between the regular Excal 1000 and the now manufactured Excal II ? If buying today, is the Excal II that much better at finding items than the regular Excal 1000. Any...

    I went on a Relic hunt and found a Barber!

    A friend of mine in Eastern NC told me several months ago that he had bought some property and supposedly there had been one of Sherman's camps on it. Obviously I have wanted to check it out for quite some time but since its 3 1/2 hours away I would only be able to hunt it when I would be...

    Excellent Coin Shooting Hunt Yesterday which included 3 silvers

    Howdy all, I was lucky to have made a hunt with some friends yesterday at one of our more generous spots and found yesterday to be no different. While it was a little cool early in the morning, mid-day brought more tolerable temps and some good diggings. My Garrett GTI 2500 had me on my knees...

    A little hunt and a little silver...

    Yesterday, I made a trip over to a spot where I've been having some descent success with finding some silver coins. The weather was excellent and I had the day off from work so I hooked up with Shane and went for an afternoon hunt. We hadn't been there long when I saw Shane pulling a target from...

    A First For Me and My Best Silver Day Ever!!!

    I did some research and secured permission to hunt a spot that I thought may produce some silver "if" it hadn't been hunted out before. The history of the "joint" was 1940's to early 1970's. Well, it has turned out to be one of the best spots I've ever hunted! I've been there 3 times and found...

    GTI 1500 / 2500 in the surf?

    Anyone had any experience with their GTI1500 or 2500 in the surf? How'd it do? Salt elimination work good? I realize you don't want to get the control box wet and I'm just talking about getting into 12 inches +- of beach water. Let me know. I'm headed to the east coast in a couple of weeks and...

    CZ-70 for the Beach?

    I have a CZ-70 Pro that I have found to be very deep and excellent for new and old coins on land. I have heard that the unit is also very good for use in the surf although I have not tried it there yet. I'm heading to the east coast beaches here in a few weeks and plan to take the '70 with me...

I thank God for my ole hunting buddy michalenc aka...

    Prayer Request

    Hi fellow Believers, Many times I'm reluctant to post prayer request because of my hard-headedness in trying to do things on my own. It is definitely one of my faults I need to overcome. However, I feel at peace bringing my request to this forum so here goes. Me and my family are Southern Gospel...
