On Friday we were out enjoying the only nice day of the week and so was everyone else it seems. The AtPro was really clicking and was having a blast digging stuff.
One signal really presented a dilemma, did or not dig. Hunting in Pro Custom mode with 35 Disc, Sens at 7. Started getting a high tone with no numeric ID to it at all. That really got my interest! I turned sensitivity all the way up and it was still hitting high tone with 80 to 81 VDI. It pinpointed at 10 inches.
Now for the flip side. This location was in a park that had a lot of people around. It was the first time we have seen the sun in a week so everyone was out enjoying it. Also the target location is on a very nice lawn that was seeded down last year and does not have a well established root system.
There is no question about covering my holes, but in this case I did not feel that I could dig a hole 10 inches and not leave a mess, so I opted to leave it and not dig the target.
This was a hard one to walk away from. What would you have done ?
BTW: The day was not a loss by any means, I dug 32 quarters, 21 dimes, 3 nickels and 39 pennies for a total of $10.64 in clad.
