New F-75 Videos

For those that remember my F-75 video from last year, I want to let you know I've started adding new ones to my YouTube account. I have one new one with the F-75 from Saturday. It is of only one find but I was tickled to death to have got it on film, else nobody would believe it. This bullet was dug in hot red dirt. Yep like the Culpeper stuff. Measured a 1 on the FE meter...and the best it gets is a .3. That's some hot stuff folks. Go check it out:

I've kinda got into the TDI training mode for myself so a few of the other videos are just F-75 and TDI comparisons and then I've got some others of hunting with the TDI. But be not deceived, I've not laid down the F-75 yet.

For the F75? Maybe you go over that in the video.....I'll go watch it now. I was just curious as I used the F75 & T2 in Culpeper & there was a big debate at the time about if all metal was best, while some were swearing by disc mode, while others had their coils a foot off the ground.......I don't think they had the small coil out yet when I was there last, and figure that could be a big help. Just wondering what you found to work best in that nasty powdered iron........
Thanks for the video,
Bill
 
Yes Sir that was pretty darn impressive. The F75 is a deep machine. Glad I have mine.
 
Bill,

The ground I was hunting in reads the same as the ground up in Culpeper. That's why I think I done so well in it up there at the DIV. You can take a magnet over the ground and watch the iron particles jump onto it. Anyway...me personally on the F-75, it's going to be motion all metal mode. Sensitivity as high as you can get away with and be smooth. I normally can run mine around 80-90.

Bullets will give a good smooth hit audio wise, but ID wise, they will read 11-13 most of the time and sometimes (but not always) they will jump into the tab/zinc range on a sweep or two. It's not enough that you would stop to dig it if in Disc mode. In one of my earlier videos I demo that very thing on a bullet that wasn't really that deep.

Now I had the 5" DD coil and liked it for trashy sites but for just open ground hunting, it don't have enough "umph" and doesn't ID any better than the stock coil. It will still read them as iron in the ground. You'll just start noticing the pattern of 11-13 numbers, and digging the solid hits and not the double blips.
 
Nice. That looks like the dirt in my backyard here in North 'Bama. Hot stuff too.
