    This Excalibur Stinks!

    This Excalibur stinks!! This not at all what the dealer led me to believe! I was told that this machine would pay for itself after the first hunt. Well, let me tell you. At this rate it will take me at least two more hunts to even think about paying this machine off. I mean, what do those...

    I didn't think I would find one of these again:thumbup:

    I thought "grills" had gone out of style, and judging by the depth I think it was a recent drop; but you never know for sure how long something has been in the sand. [attachment 264318 PICT0010Medium.JPG] [attachment 264319 PICT0016Medium.JPG] I haven't gone detecting much this year, it was...

    Trifecta - A run of three wins or grand events:super:

    It's been a while since I found gold, or anything of value for that matter. I've been trying different spots without much luck, but most of my time has been spent just scouting out the beaches and less time on actually detecting them. For my birthday my wife decided she was going to take me to...

    Second Hunt of the Year, Boy if this keeps up...:detecting:

    I'll triple what I got last year, of course last year was AWFUL!!:thumbdown: Decided to go back to where I found the 18k and Platinum band two weeks ago. This is a hard to get to spot, no one metal detects this area of the beach, or so I thought. About half way into the hunt, a lady comes up to...

    Minelab Excalibur Sensitivity to Gold Chains - Part 2

    Here's Part 2 of 3... In this "fun filled episode" we have the Minelab Excalibur with a standard 10" coil. From this experiment I got something I didn't expect, the Sunray coil was actually more sensitive to small/ thin gold chains than the 10" coil. The Sunray would pickup on the chains and the...

    Now might be a good time to cash in your change!

    If you cash in at least $40 in change at a Coinstar machine they'll give you free coin counting and $10 to any of the sponsors. Not a bad deal, wish now I hadn't cashed in a couple months ago.:thumbdown: amazon.com

    It Ain't from lack of Trying!!!

    I sure haven't been finding much lately, but it aint from lack of trying. Since they re-nourished the beach here, gold and everything else is non-existent. So, I've been going to some different stomping grounds, a beach that has rarely ever given up gold in the past and it appears that it will...
