Gee, wonder how he did...........

 

[water logged]

He was scanning the ground at a brisk pace swinging fast with the coil at knee level
I mentioned he might find more targets with the coil closer to the ground but he just kept jogging.
Now when i see these guys i just shake my head, laugh, and mumble to myself more for me.

Dig - His only problem is that he's not using a Minelab (ha ha).

 

[marbien]

Mine is better than yours .....again, Who cares He's out there doing what he loves to do and he gets his machine in one week not 3 months ha ha

Now thats a diehard. Funny video.

Actually on dry sand that is hunted regularly, moving fast with the coil well above the sand increases your chances of finding a valuable ring or watch. It cuts out the pulltabs etc. All MEtal mode on most detectors will allow you to move faster and this is the way to find recently lost items that have enough size to be valuable.

I used to go slower and lower on dry sand and I thought the ame thing until someone told me about the people who hunt with this method and that they consistantly find the big rings and watches. You can move that fast with a SovereignGT in AM if there isn't much trash. It may signal past the target but it will signal.

that's a machine for testing air pressure for the incoming hurricane, actually he has to lift it up higher to get a better reading

i would be going fast too if i was just about to get blown away?

He was AIR testing those flying coins...... cause he sure wasnt getting any of them off the ground. Surely he was headed for his truck and that was his getten out of Dodge pace.

I don't see whats he's doing wrong. He's NOT swinging at "knee level", looks to be just above the sand. Fast swing, yeah, but that's not going to matter for 99% of targets. If you ever saw them testing coils at the factory, the test targets are on a rotator that floes past WAY faster than anyone swings a coil. I've seen "weed chopper" guys, that aint one.

LOL I just thought it was funny that everyone screaming....."Get away from the ocean!!!" and what do we see....a metal detectorist, just pluggin right along into the mouth of a hurricane. LOL

 

[gold-digger]

Wish I could be up there too.

 

[GunnarMN]

[JOHNMARKHAM]
