Going back to explorer xs

[CBAILEY IN GA]

I like to try different machines but always go back to explorer and/or etrac. They just work for my area/style of hunting. Been without a detector for several months and getting an explorer xs for now and hopefully an etrac next year. Will keep both this time no selling off. Etrac so are selling dirt cheap as well as explorer se.

Good for people that buy used but kinda sucks for others.

Cant afford to buy and sell so these will be my 2 detectors for several years

Welcome back CB! Enjoy your "new" XS. We know how good it is.

Hell of a wise move in my opinion. Maybe some users are getting disenchanted with detecting as a whole,maybe people are getting sucked into the latest and greatest and driving prices down...I truly believe an FBS in the hands of someone who uses it constantly for a long period of time will have continued success. I started with my EX2 about 6-7 months ago and though I've learned ALOT I smile at the thought of learning much more and eeking stuff out of sites I would've never dreamed of finding with my modified IDXPro,though it is a great unit for what it is. It's just NOT an Explorer.
Good luck with the second go around,I'm sure you know how good they are by now...

If you find a machine that works best for you... USE IT..... It's hard to beat a Minelab for finding deep silver coins.

XS may be a tad slow but are as deep or deeper than the ones that followed in experienced hands ought to cover it....

Starting with an XS and don't think I want any other machine.

I think the Explorer XS is still a great detector.HH

Starting with an XS and don't think I want any other machine.

I have used an XS for years and try other detectors because of a bad ark and keep going back to the XS. I will keep the one I have now and deal with the sore arm.
