I keep thinking of new things to post 
I really like the new 11" coil for many reasons. First it's little lighter than the previous 10" coils by 4oz. Not much but every little bit helps. It moves through the Surf easily and it not easily deflected or moved by the waves. And last but not least is that it Pinpoints incredibly well. On the Explorer with the stock 10" coil I always had to use the Pinpoint Mode to center up a target. I could never get the hang of doing ti in the Discriminate mode. The Sov on the other hand I can pinpoint accurately in the Discriminate Mode while using a 15" coil. Well whether it's the new coil or the faster electronics of the New E-Trac or a little of both I have found that I can accurately and easily Pinpoint in Discriminate Mode. I don't necessarily recommend this for land hunters but on the beach where a scoop makes a 6" diameter hole it's fine When I first started hunting on Saturday I was using the Pinpoint mode like I always had with the Explorer. After while I noticed that the target seemed to always be right under the center of the coil where I thought it was in Disc Mode so I tried digging where I thought the targets were while in Disc Mode and they were right there. Since then I have been pinpointing in the Disc mode and it has been working out fine. On some fo the really deep targets I thought I was off when I wasn't finding a target by the time I reached the depth I thought the target should have been. So I would double check in Pinpoint Mode. It always confirmed the target was still there and sure enough within the next scoop or two the target would be out of the hole. Just another plus for the E-Trac System.
