Thanks this helps a lot I have 2 friends that have already bought their own detectors and I'm the last to buy I'll hire something then see how I go then decide instead of pouring $$$ into something that will gather dust.
Thanks Wolf I've checked eBay and gumtree nothing online but a couple in the US but pretty expensive.
Those other 2 are up around the $1000 I'm willing to spend and I'm only after nuggets unless you something comes along.
Any other detecters you know of other than the lobo?
Seems like the Minelab X-Terra 705 is the best for a beginner?
at about 800-1000 I'm only after golf nuggets not going to work the parks or beaches at this stage.
What do you guys think?
