What's wrong with this picture?

The top ten point winners on the Tesoro team at the gnrs and the detector each used. Am I missing something here?
 
looks to me like Mr. Kevin Walls knows his detector real well, and knows better than to listen to hype in hopes of a magical goodie finder. I've only been detecting 2 years but I firmly believe a man who knows his detector (any reasonably good brand) will outdo the guy who keeps buying the latest and greatest. Just my opinion of course but..those numbers sure seem to support it. By the way, my Bandido 2 mmax is not for sale. <img src="/metal/html/wink.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=";)">
 
Maybe the winner was digging and the others didnt. To many variables to consider before trying to make a point.
 
and i minnie and scored a lot of points.Someone else could have found 100 minni's and got less points.You'd have to see what each found before making any evaluations.Dave
 
If they are in an area which had pits, then it became a pit finding-digging competition. Nothing wrong with that except we can't draw any conclusions about any detector.
 
Here are my thoughts as to why a LST is on top. He could have found a plate, or he might just know his machine way better then anyone knows the Tejon yet. And the LST has never been accussed of being a bad machine. Regardless of how good a machine may be, it still takes time to learn them. Also it looked to me like there was a lot more pit digging going on the actual detecting. Just my thoughts.

I may be wrong but, the scoreboard says (Original Lobo) not the LST. I had the LST and found it hotter than the Original Lobo which I still have on my buried 8 inch and 6 inch nickels. I like the Original Lobo a little more because of the manual GB....Al
 
I've said it before and I'll say it again. This looks to proves that the guy behind the machine really means more than just the detector.Kevin must be a real good relic hunter. You could probably put a radio shack in his hands and he'd likely out dig a most guys using top models. The Lobo( I used one before I got an X5 and it was good) Tejon, and the X5 they're all top knotch. Get one, learn to use it, and then start talking smack. Its not just the machines guys you have to know what to do with it. ##### seems like I've heard a similar phrase used by women too heh heh. But thats another subject!

Not everyone below Kevin had a Tejon. Kevin is a great hunter and he really knows his old Lobo like you wouldn't believe. He also dug pits on the 2nd day that gave him most of his points. He had a small coil on the lobo and could really sniff out all the goodies in those pits. Great guy to boot.
Rees was the 3rd guy down and he used an original Eldorado.
Enoch used an Eldorado umax.
Mike Kuz used a Shadow X2...
That's just of the top of my head.

but prefered his old reliable Eldorado. He's one of those all metal hunting type of relic hunters who can sniff out the deep stuff. He really knows his relics and the history to go along with it.
