My buddy Steve and I got to go out today for a really nice warm day hunt. Temps in the upper 60s and it was a no coat day. We spent the first 3-4 hours hunting an older school outside the city and only came away with a few coins each. As we were leaving a couple guys pulled up and asked how we did. We told we sure expected more from the place and told us it get hammered pretty good every week.
The belonged to the city club and told us they had about 80 members that hit the city parks, schools and playground alot. They had a XLT, DFX and explorer in the back of thr truck so they weren't playing with toys. They said they hit the school up the road already and was working their way back into town.
So we decided to hit a school I wanted to hit for a couple of years but just never got the chance becuase of all the school activities going on at it all the time. We hunted there for about 2 hours and and did pretty well with my M6 and his XL pro. We each dug out over 70 coins just hunting around the edges of the place trying to keep a low profile around all the grounds keepers there. I did manage a two silver plated woman bands, 52 wheat and a casino token in the mix.
I sure am liking the M6 better with each hunt i use it on. Steves Xl Pro has some really nice features about it also. If I can manage it in the next few weeks I think I want to grab one of those before they are no longer available. Sweet pinpointing feature on it compared to the M6, but it no slosh at pinpointing either.
