[QUOTE="PhaseTech, post: 292755, member: 3149"] If you don't have other detectors, then an optional coil would be great on the SDC, even upping it to a 12x7 size which NF have in the Advantage range, would give it more coverage at depth. Less overlap, means you can shuffle forward a bit quicker. What I use the SDC for is the following: 1. Thick scrub where you are poking and prodding the coil. The round coil and rear mount and the lack of any falsing are all perfect for this 2. As a final pass over any patch - no patch is fully cleaned out until and SDC has gone over it 3. Shallow hot ground with lots of zippy hot rocks - if the SDC can't score in this type of ground nothing will 4. Side walls where you are detecting with the coil vertically - this is where the SDC shines, and the GPX and GPZ can fail miserably For open patch hunting where I am swinging faster, I am preferring the GPX with 14x9" or 17x13" Evos, but if the SDC had a bigger elliptical or even semi-elliptical then the SDC would definitely get more action, as I know it will ping the hard to see gold much better than the GPX. The GPZ has proven that there is a heap more of this type of gold in my local hunting grounds than I ever realised, even at depth. [/QUOTE]
