So I went to my local MD shop today to pick up my Lesche Sampson shovel today and ended up also taking home a Minelab 8" coil. I already have a 4.5"x7" DD Xcelerator coil but I have been wondering about the 8" for some time now. For those of you that have used the 8" coil, what do you think? If any of you have used both the 4.5x7 and the 8," which did you prefer? I am going to test them both out, back to back, of course, on my next few hunts but I am hoping to figure out which one is the true "winner" out of the two. If someone has already done this, your feedback would be greatly appreciated. I'll let you know what my findings are between the two, but most likely it will take quite some hunting time before I can give my fair and honest opinion. HH -Marc PS as for the lesche sampson, i have high hopes for this shovel, it looks well made and it seems to be exactly what i was looking for. Less bending over to dig my plugs and less effort to open more ground. It isnt all that heavy and its size seems perfect. I'll also give you a review on that item once I get out and use it on a few hunts
