    Uncle Willy Ostrich Bend

    I finally got out for about 20 minutes today in my driveway. The first bend I didn't think my knee was going to work, so I had to do the Uncle Willy ostrich bend. I lasted about 20 minutes with my knee hurting so I thought I better stop. ANyway, found this heart pendant thing. Rang up under...

    Swangin the blues

    I'm ready to kick the doc with my good leg. My knee is still not healed enought to bend or squat. I couldn't stand it anymore, so yesterday I went out and found 6 pennys right outside the front door. It's rough to keep your leg and knee straight, and dig a target. Satisfaction was in the air...

    GTI 2500 / 1500 DVD

    I got the GTI2500 DVD today. I liked the different sections that they done....introduction, discriminate, and all metal. It's been a while since I watched the VHS version, but the DVD seems to be a little more in depth than the VHS copy. I learned on the Garrett Groundhog in the 1970's. All I...

    Coins for the day

    These coins came from along a driveway. I went up one side and down the other, for a total of about 75 feet, and about a width of 6 feet. Most of the coins were 2" - 4" inches deep. Had one a pocket of 5 coins stacked at an angle. The oldest coin was a 1946 wheatie, then a 1969 nickel and...

    Barking dogs

    I finally got to go out for about an hour or so today to an old park. It has been hunted many, many times. I've gone there several times over the years. Didn't get much of anything.....a newer dime and penny. There was this miniature collie two houses down that barked at me the entire time I...

    Detectors through the years

    When I started metal detecting in the 1970's, I had an old cheapy to mess around with. I then bought a Garrett Ground hog. I used it for many years. I then went on to an Ace Freedom, then to one of the GTA's. Does any know, starting with the groundhog the oldest to newest of the Garrett...

    GTI 2500 Question

    I have been out 2 or 3 times with the GTI and I am having pinpointing problems......don't know if I'm just out of practice or if the coil is different. I used to have a GTI 2500 and used it extensively; however it had the old white coil. I sold it about 18 months ago and have not used one...

    Tool holder and pouch

    It's been rainy and cool in Oklahoma today....so I thought I'd build myself a leather tool holder and goodie pouch. Nothing fancy. The pouch is fixed so it will unsnap from the tool holder. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get to try it out.....Bill

    Hi everyone. I haven't been on the forum in a year or 2. Just got another GTI 2500. Made the mistake of selling my other one a while back and just had to have another one. I was wondering what types of rechargable batteries are you finding that work the best. I've noticed there are alot of...
