[QUOTE="Balmain Bob, post: 627147, member: 739"] Nightjar, I do pinpoint with the detector but if you may notice its a 17 x 13 evo coil. Unlike alot of other detectorists, I pinpoint the target with the coil and then dig straight down instead of digging a wide hole. Once i get to a depth that the coil becomes useless to pinpoint I pull out the pinpointer thus saving me a hell of a lot of digging that isnt required. Yes there were a couplle of bugarra holes nearby. but I had picked up a couple of nuggets within a few feet of that target not long b4 this one and this target was through undug ground and worth the effort Yes I was not too happy about the result but thats the way it goes. I week latter I did find a 20 + gram bit a few metres away :D [/QUOTE]
