Now I'm no noobie at this...been at this for a long time, but because of my job and other obligations I don't get a lot of swing time in. My 1st detector was a whites idx...when I bought it it was top of the line, nice detector, had it for a long time.2nd detector was a minelab x-terra 50, not "top of the line" but very much a upgrade to the old whites.3rd detector about this time last year was a garrett at pro again not "top of the line", but the more I used it, the more I thought it was one of the best around. Then about 3 weeks ago, BTW a very BIG thank-you to Chuck at Indian Nations Detectors!, I traded the pro ( and of course some cash ) for a once or twice used, less then 4 months old F75 black SE and WOW !! I knew it would be a better detector than the pro but I had no idea!
The depth,weight, true all metal mode, crazy deep boost mode....I mean it is just insane! There are still times I'd like to wrap it around a tree
but I'm getting better with the tweaking every time out
I have hit some old parks here in doo dah that I pounded to death over the summer not to mention every body else here in town swing a detector and have been simply amazed how it's like hunting the areas for the 1st time...the ground just lights up with new targets...in 4 less than 2 hr hunts with the SE I've found a 1921 Morgan a 1927 Merc and a 1940 Wheat. I know this doesn't really have anything to do with anything and not really very informative...just had to get it off my chest on how impressive this thing is!
