Stepped out back this morning with the Compadre for a few minutes. The ground was wet so the signals were strong. Got a hit clear and crisp but the target eluded me. Kept moving soil and digging carefully checking as I went with the pin pointer. Got a few small iron nails of course but the Compadre kept insisting there was something else. Finally came up with this tiny washer, maybe copper at about 5 inches down. That's what it saw. Talk about a sensitive little unit.

Don't you know it!
On my very first hunt with mine I got a solid loud signal in a tot lot.
Couldn't find that target for the life of me.
Even when I finally got it in my hand my Propointer never went off unless it was touching it.
It turned out to be one small bead from a chain that was the size that comes on most nail clippers.
Slingshot has posted about how his found the tiny ball off the end of a typical ball point pen.
Not the whole assembly...just a round bead the size of that tiny ball.
We try to tell people how sensitive this thing is but unless they see for themselves many never believe it.
