[QUOTE="Moneybox, post: 372132, member: 3960"] I spent almost all last year using the 14" Elite with great results but it's heavy. This year I went armed with a 19" Evo to get those deep ones I couldn't reach last time. All I found with it was 1x0.13g and 1x0.4g. Two nuggets for $600 but it is a nice coil to swing and no heavier than the 14" Elite. Then I purchased the 11" Detech Ultra mono for the little stuff and light weight to get Mrs M into swinging to 4500. A very expensive coil for very little return. There's nothing about this coil I like. It will be going up for sale real soon. I had never used the 11" Commander mono until this trip. Now it's the best coil I've got. I'm not knocking the 14" Elite because it is a great coil but perhaps I'm getting too old to swing 1.1kg on the end of a stick all day. There were times when I wanted someting small to compare with the SDC. Some patches only have tiny gold but lots of it and with the coils I have it's out of my reach. I thought perhaps the little Sadie was the way to go? [/QUOTE]
