Loving my F75 now. Great finds this last week!

Just wanted to say I'm loving my F75. I have had some amazing finds this week. I wish I could post pics but I use a iPad and the pic files are too big. This machine is very deep. Here is a list of what I have found in the last few days hunting Civil War relics.
8 Dimicks sharp shooter rounds.
3 sharps
Louisiana button 18" deep no lie.
A batwing end off of a carbine sling
A US buckle (my first)
Several enfields musket balls and 3 ringers.
All of this stuff is in a pasture that has been hunted for yrs. Its very deep. It took me awhile to warm up to the F75 but I'm learning the different tones/sounds and my confidence is steadily building.
I've been hunting all metal mode BP sensitivity 90 discrim 4. Be patient if you're new to the F75. It can be noisy but it will bring the stuff out of the ground for you if you're patient enough to learn it.
Good hunting.
 
Button 18" deep...is that a misprint? Did you scan the hole after retrieving the button...may be a big buckle near it or a canteen.
 
Steve I know that's sounds crazy but I almost quit digging after I got down about 12-14". I was getting a pretty solid 43 on the VDI and a pretty solid tone but the confidence meter wasn't reading at all. I finally picked it up w my pro pointer. The batwing end was 16" and read a solid 65. I'm impressed w it. I hated it until I found out that the coil wire was loose where it screwed into the head unit. Made it extremely chattery. I used it for almost a yr before I discovered that was the problem. I love it now.
 
Hold on to that unit, sounds like a hot one.
 
Outstanding work! :clapping: You gotta post some pics Man!:drool: Try resizing the pics down using some sort of photo edit function...I have to do that sometimes too, but cant remember just exactly how...

I wish I could resize them but I don't know how. I took the pics w my iPhone I don't think you can change the pixel size on it.
