Trash...square head nails

How does this machine do in heavy iron, nails? does it give you an idea that it is iron trash? Does it unmask so you know you have two targets mixed. I am using the deus and just starting to understand the sounds. Can now hunt nails and tell if its a good or bad target...
 
LB I'll tell you that you won't believe what it can do. It is very very fast and in trash like most people have never hunted before the CoRe is finding me the goods. When 99.9% of people say heavy iron, they have no idea what that is not unless they come hunt with the few here that venture into that realm. You know right away that you have a good target amongst many ferrous targets in a hand sized plug.
 
Dang it... I guess I'll have to get a new detector this spring. I hunt a lot of places with cut square nails and here in Bartow county there used to be lots of iron mines and smelting. You can drag a neo magnet on the ground here and in three feet you wont be able to see the magnet anymore because of all the iron rocks stuck to it.
If this detector REALLY does it, then it will be worth it. The E-TRAC reopened some of my site but I KNOW there are still targets I am not hitting in all the bad ground and my nemesis... cut square nails, about one inch long. They are HARD to pass on...
Does this detector do well in cut square nails? I don't even need depth on some sites. One in particular is eroded on one side and I've found many buttons and bullets on top of the ground or at one or two inches but some were pretty well masked by all the junk iron and ore.

You're in GA right? You probably know what I mean. Places like Brushy Mountain, some places in Bartow are even worse. I know pulse machines have helped some but they are too heavy for me and, well I just never warmed up to the idea.

Thanks for any input.

Your ground is hardcore I think I would Ask Nasa Tom on his web sight what he thinks you can and can't do in that kind of ground...
 
Thanks, I took one of his hunting buddies to a site here a few years ago. I can't remember his name but that is a good idea. Thanks

Julien you are in Cartersville, come down and hunt with us one day soon. I'll buy ya lunch too how about that. It's just a hundred miles down I20 to where I live in Martinez or I can meet ya about half way and we'll go and find some places to hunt. Lot's of history here and between me and you. I'm just an ole man with a stick and a donut attached to the end of it I scrape on the ground every now and then.
