I watched 3 UK videos of these 2 detectors and all I saw after 11 inches, targets were very hard to hit...Is this the best depth these detectors can get...

if your GB numbers are less than 80 you probably will get fair depth, and if below a 75 GB it like air testing , but i have a gravel road I like to hunt and it balances at 86 to 87 and i loose targets past 5" they can just click but what is nice is the all metal is up to the task.
"depth" topic has sure continued to amaze me. How long? Well, for as long as I have been hunting, and in over half-a-century people still as today as they did when I started ... How deep was it? How deep will it find things? Etc., etc., etc.
Your reply was perfect!

Tom Slick said:It's not the "best depth these detectors can get" It's this best that operator, in his soil, with his settings, on his targets can get.
Tom that was pretty "Slick" lol was a perfect answer.. That should be the sticky at the beginning of every thread..

You can make a detector detect a coin at 2 foot in air , but in the ground you can 1 third or less of this depth. Unless some one designs a magical new detector even in 40 years time depths will be te same.
think I read Dave J. talking about depth somewhere on VLF hobby machines it was something about the power needed to double in ground depth, cant remember exactly how it went, but that we wouldn't be able to carry the battery.
sure there are some parks I know of that have some deep coins ( that I cant hit with any detector I own) been top dressed over the years grass braking down after mowing etc.. guess I could go PI but mmmmmmmm that's a lot of digging.
I think the new deep is speed and the gold racer is the fastest detector I have used I don't know about the other Makro/Nokta machines I haven't used them, I would like a racer 2 , but will hold out and see what the impact has to offer 1st.
in the mean time gold season is coming up and so taking the GR to the parks to get used to it and dig it all and hope for gold, might even hit the gold fields this year to see how it runs.
remember that you heard it here 1st speed is the new deep.
