Soveriegn GT Small Coil Question

[GENE EDWARDS]

Has anyone used the sunray 5.5" DD coil on the Soveriegn GT yet? If so how do you like it, or would I be better off with the 8"? I work a beach with a lot of melted pop can pieces and nails, and I need to get in between some of the trash to get the goodies. Thanks much, Gene

I can think of some great reasons to use that small coil with the Sovereign. Beach hunting isn't one of them.

You're better off using a 10" coil on a beach or maybe an 8". Why? Because it's so easy to dig with a scoop and you cover more ground.

If you're working a land site with hard ground and lots of trash then it would be an advantage to use the small coil. On a sand beach you should use a big coil.

That's what I think.

If you already have the small tornado coil for the GT, it measures 7 1/4" so its really close to the Sunrays 5 1/2" coil.........so not much advantage size wise.
