Goldtarget
(AKA OldGT)
I'll try and make this as straight forward as I can from start to finish. This technique is not new it's on YouTube but its the one I use every hunt on a grassed area, I suggest practice in your backyard to fine tune. If you can keep your own grass in tip top condition you'll be set out in the parks and sensitive areas without falling foul of the grass nazis. This is good for those areas like frequently visited parks and public spaces like schools and churches so you will get an invite back again.
So first you need to use your detector to pinpoint the target. I use the 12/6 o'clock, 9/3 o'clock then around 11/5. If you have a sense of shape from all sides you can attempt to decipher what is below by shape and tone. Next whilst focusing on the chosen spot mentally mark out the 9/3 (horizontal to your feet) and aim around half to one inch forward of the target. Insert blade just in front of your target and slice up an down vertically along that line. Pics
Select and pin point target
Insert lesche approx half to one inch in front
Saw up and down in horizontal line
