    Hit it at the crack-o-dawn this morning at a beach near the one I was at yesterday. Its a bit further south but still had some decent sand removed in a couple areas. Only had about 2 hours to hunt but I managed a 10K toe ring and a Titanium mens band with a Diamond mounted in 18K gold. Took the...

    12-9 and 12-10 Hunts

    Got out early yesterday morning and this morning for a couple hours each. Yesterday I decided to head south and scope out some beaches that I haven't been to before. First one looked miserable, second one yielded some clad and had potential, third one was a charm but by the time I got to it I...

    Meter, to convert or not....

    I just got an original 550 meter from a Minelab Elite that I am mounting to my new Sov. GT. I have heard a lot about converting it to a 180 scale instead of the 550. Could I get some pros and cons to this? Also if that is what is the best thing to do, then can anyone recomend who to have do it...

    Ahhhh, what a beautiful morning! My expectations were low since the tide was not great. Worked the edge and was rewarded with a pair of Golden tickets!

    Gold Switch turned ON today!!

    I just knew after yesterdays hunt that there were some good targets to be had. Hit at the crack of dawn this morning and really put my head down! First target was a junk bracelet. That got me going even if it was junk, I was thinking JEWELRY!! After a few really green coins I got a whisper of a...

    Detector for coinshooting old homesites...

    I am looking for a good detector for coinshooting in some old parks and homesite areas. I am looking for something that can give a good depth readout so I don't have to make the holes too big. Also something that is hot on silver as that is what I will be targeting of course. I know I am going...

    Excalibur Warranty transfer...

    I just purchased an Excal II that has a 2 year ESP warranty that is supposed to be transferable. Do I need to call Minelab to do this? Also on the same note, I have another Excal II that I bought brand new a few months ago and filed the warranty on line. I have never received any confirmation...

    Great Hunt this morning!!!

    Hit it early this morning and was rewarded!! 2hrs 45 minutes total. Found the 3 stone ring first and almost fell over until I saw the stamp. Oh well, PD 925, does that mean Palladium and Silver? Next was a little stud earing that took me 5 minutes to get out of my scoop because it got caught in...

    I have been having a problem with the arm strap on my Excal II straight shaft rubbing my forearm raw after a couple hours. I absolutely love the shaft, it is the pluggers 1 piece staraight shaft, but there has got to be a better strap for the armrest or some kind of easy fix to keep from the rug...

    Beach Hunts 7/1 and 7/3 BLING!!

    So I hit the beach Friday evening and found a little clad and the Fighter Jet Die cast! That sucker was every bit of 18 inches+ down! In fact, when I first got the hit it was fairly faint so that tells you how deep it was! Multiple scoops later, I had it! Very few targets, lots of hunters out. I...

    My $.99 this morning....

    Hit the beach a bit before sunrise(6am) and hunted till a little after 8am. Picture perfect morning other than the high tide The tide must have scared off some other hunters since I only saw 2 others in the water and normally there are at least 6. Hunted knee to chest deep and was mainly in...

    3 weeks worth of finds....

    Maybe some of you experienced beach hunters can tell me how my ratios are doing. I have been hunting with my new Excal 2 for the last 3 weeks at some very popular beaches. My hunts are only 2-3 hours at a time. I would estimate I have about 20 hours in at this time. Other than aluminum foil...

    A little jewelry this morning....

    Got out this morning for a couple hours. Hunted waist deep to chest deep. Targets were few and far between, but I managed a 0.950 silver ring and a huge hoop earing(junk). The large hotel key was easily 18" but my new Reillys 6" Aluminum scoop made quick work of it :) Hunted from 6am to 8:30am...
