Cibola with clean sweep on soccer fields

[DetectorOCD]

I'm thinking this is going to be a killer combination for soccer fields. Can anyone give their experience hunting athletic fields with them?

Thanks peeps

I use the clean sweep on my Cortes. This is my main setup when going to soccer fields, ect... The first time I hit this area, I must have been the first detectorist there. By the end of summer I had over 700 coins, about two dozen pieces of jewelry. A lot were silver, a few were gold. It did find a small gold band, looked like a small woman would have worn it. So it does find small gold. Now I was digging every signal, so there was pounds of junk, which I don't have to worry about now. When I go there now, most finds are near the surface. This field is right across the street from my house and I have never seen another person searching.

the csc is the bomb for large areas ~~~ I've been toying with the idea to take a couple small pieces of wire with flags on them to help mark each end of the field as I walk it to keep track of where I've been

That will be a very hot on gold setup! Also hot on foil... I think a lower frequency uMax would work a little better in the junk, but you can't go wrong either way with the CSC.

Very good combination.
The coil makes a Cibola a bit nose heavy, but it is not unmanageable. I normally use it on the Tejon where it balances a bit better even though total weight is higher. Great coil for hunting sports fields. Hit the sidelines, goal areas and corners first, then try the center of the field. On fields that normally have youth games, I find very little through out the playing field since the enforcement of no jewelry rules can be pretty strict. Those fields it's all on the sidelines where cheering parents drop things (or in the parking areas and walking paths to the fields). Fields with adult teams are a different story.
