6 i hope

Only bad thing is people only remember the bad stories. Our positive well behaved manner is normal so its over looked becasue nothing stands out. Something negative stands out like a 3 oz nugget in a gold pan. To put it into perspective. I Dad and I can shoe 1000 horses and do a bird of a job...

Will do

Yea, I was thinking the same

Not at all. I just have a garrett detector so staying with one brand seems fair.

Just send a few back, who are they going to tell? :cool: They're not going to go down to the local cops and explain that they were shot at while poaching. You also have to be carefull of wild dogs in some areas too. I know mudgee has a bit of a problem out there last I heard.

I've already got the Garrett detector so I may as well stick with the one brand.

I think I might go for the Garrett. Thanks guys

Hi guys Im looking to get a pin pointer in the not to distant future. I have my eyes on either the Garrett Pro Pointer or Minelab Pro Find 25 Both are roughly the same price. There are $30 ones on eBay but some how I don't think they have the goods to keep up. What's the general consensus on...

Soak the clay in a bucket as long as you can. Should break up pretty good after a while. Maybe add a little soap to stop it sticking together.

I only switch over to it if im having trouble finding a target. If it comes up iron after a few digs, i fill it in and keep on truckin.

Ah ok. I noticed that the 2 coins had a disinct harsh tone where as all the trash had a different faded tone on the edges. Good to know. Only 98.5 hours left to fully learn everything.

Thanks guys. Im hoping to hit the beaches soon to increase my skills. Im getting used to the all metal mode before I start playing with the discrim settings too much but it is good to hear the iron tone so you know if its junk or a coin. The gold fields will have to wait a while. Hoping to get...
