Is any one is using a DFX to relic hunt ?
- Thread starter Sonny1965

I bought a DFX for relic hunting last year. I quickly found out that my Tesoro Tejon was a much deeper machine. Kind of knew that anyway. I dug a real deep minnie and it fell to the bottom of my hole, which was about twelve inches deep. My buddy who had a DFX said, wait a minute, let me run my DFX over it and see how it sounds. It didn't sound at all, nothing. I also had my DFX and I ran mine across the hole and nothing, I tweaked it a bit and barely got a tone. My Tejon was picking it up loud and clear. Within two weeks my Tejon was sold on Ebay.
I might add that the Tejon seems to work exceptionally well in really soaked soil. I did my deepest minnies when the soil is saturated. In fact dug a half dime on Friday in an area the size of a large bedroom that I have gone over at least one hundred times in the last three years. It is where I cross the fence from the road so every time I go there that is where I turn my machine on and start hunting.
I think the DFX is more of a coin machine.

My newest video was filmed in totally wet ground. In some places you couldn't walk without the ground squishing. And this Tejon had trouble hitting minie balls at just 5-6 inches
