    Workout Regiment

    Just was thinking about last year's first days out. I am a fairly fit person but I remember those first couple of days out in the spring. Going to be sore again. Maybe I should start working out those weird muscles we use detecting... The Bent Neck. The Arm Swing. The squat and dig. The...

    Your opinion??? 2500 coil

    I have the big pro pack coil and the stock one but thinking about picking up a DD for the 2500. Do you think that I am wasting my cash. We don't have bad soil here in MN but looking for depth. The 12.5" round coil that came with the pro pack hasn't been used much yet but on my 1350 I used the...

    IS THE V-3 BETTER AT PROSPECTING THAN THE WHITE DFX AND GARRETT 2500 GARRETT INFINIUM, MINELAB EXPLORER SE, MINELAB E-TRACFX

    Question Explorer XS

    Just had a quick question... Friend of mine purchased a Explorer XS used last summer. We were just talking and he is not happy with it. Would there be any reason for this? He can't keep up with me and the 5-6 times we were out he didn't manage any good targets. I own a couple...

    Winter Re-con: Successful

    Been on a Winter Re-con for old lots/houses and places to detect once frost/5 ft. snow is gone... I completely stumbled across a jackpot waiting to be discovered. My brother's father-in-law mentioned a place where he hunts small game/deer that use to be a townsite. It's n the middle of the...

    Copper finds (8) bucks literally dead on!!!!

    Well, I did go out Sunday detecting after shooting this big guy Saturday at dusk and didn't find anything of note. I was still on a high, I guess, and couldn't keep my head into it. I think it is a toss up which hobby is more addictive. I think, for me, it would be hunting because Minnesota...

    Poppin' a Barber Half at the wrong time!!!

    On Sunday afternoon, I was out and about, as always looking for a good place to hunt. I like to cruise the countryside and find a farmhouse to hunt and that is what I did. Went to the door and asked permission. The farmer said "I always wanted to get into detecting but never got around to it...

    A Seated Liberty goes from Wish list to Hat trick in one hunt!

    This part of Minnesota was not settled until the 1870-1880 so Seated Coins were not used common. In fact, there are five of us that detect together and none of us have found one. That all changed last night. Went to a old town site that was started in 1880's but was quickly moved when the...

    2500 Question????

    I had to send my 2500 (it was a year old) in and they rebuild it with a new mother board. Anyways, I got going with it again and it seems to be real jumpy on coins. For an example, I can scan over the same place and it will jump around from pulltab to 25 cent. I dig it up to find out and it...
