First hunt with my new MXT PRO

[kickback]

It was 103 degrees and windy.A perfect time to head out with a new detector.I took it to 2 badly pounded tot lots.I was very pleasantly surprised.I only found $.67 in clad,I also found 2 neat buttons,both brass.One is in the shape of a flower with clear stones as petals and a larger clear stone as the center.I almost had to take one of my Nitro's when I first saw all the sparkle in the dirt.The other one is just plain brass.I found 17 pennies,4 dimes and 2 nickles.I dug some pulltabs.I was surprised how deep the MXT would hit small pieces of foil.I like the multi tones.It took about 4 coins before I got the pinpointing down.I hunted after dark for a short period of time just to try the backlight.It's great!!!The detector doesn't seem to be "noisy" to me.I guess I've come to expect a little noise from a threshold based detector.I ran it in coin and jewelry at the presets.I still dug a dime at close to 7 inches.It was way below the bark mulch in the hard packed clay beneath.I run the 6X10 coil on it.I traded my 12 inch concentric coil to someone for a new 10"D2 coil.I also bought a 5.3 concentric coil for it.I had a senior moment and forgot to order coil covers for those coils.I didn't want to scratch them up.I know,A.R. I plan on getting a 9.5 concentric coil and a 3X6 Shooter coil soon.I also tried my Bigfoot coil for about 5 minutes before I quit.I love that combo!!Soccer fields,baseball and football fields look out Bigfoot is on the way! Can't wait to continue the learning process tomorrow.I hope everybody gets a pouch full of goodies on there next hunt.Bill

Super hunting and you're right about that BigFoot and the soccer fields..............LOOK OUT! I love my BigFoot coil and it's paid for itself over and over and over. You're loaded for great detecting. Thanks for posting and keep the coil to the soil! HH, Nancy
