Wow you have quite the assortment! I can only DREAM about having that many detectors lol (I own 1 detector - The Sov GT) The detectors you have are all great machines and they will all find you coins. You just have to figure out which one you like best, (weight, tone(s) your style of hunting speed, do you like programming or do you like turn on and go performance? etc) Being that you have been hunting 15 + years, it all boils down to what YOU want. All of us here on this forum could have every detector you have listed but what good would they do us if we couldn't make the decision to actually get out in the field and hunt with the machines? wow! now that was a run-on sentence lol
My intentions here are not to "scold or yell" at you Leroy and I apologize if that is how I sound. My intentions are to get you thinking about what I am writing and make the decision to grab one detector for just about each day of the week and go out hunting! (providing that you can - you may have a family / full-time job / other life chores to take care of etc) Or take any two detectors at a time and hunt for 2 hours with each detector. Get to know the detectors and soon you will realize a decision will be developing in your mind about which one really stands out. As humans we all want that top find yesterday and thinking that we can with the latest technology in a detector. The truth is (like others have mentioned here as well) is the detector you know best will find you the most. Sorta like jumping in your car every morning. You get to know the car and the sound(s) it make. You know after a while (by driving it every day ) what noises are good ones and when they are not so good. Same with these detectors you have. Take them all for a test drive and get to know those quirks of each machine. Again, my intentions are all good Leroy - I want you to get out there and place that coil to the ground and go hunting! Then you can post here on the forum about the finds you make! You have a lot of fun work ahead of you. You can always cut down on the list and mail me the 705 and F75.
(jk) Although they are detectors I would like to try out in the carnival area I hunt. Take care Leroy and I wish you the best of luck! - Jim

Use the Sovereign. I've owned a lot of machines over the years and there is nothing deeper.

Hi Larry, Lol, I think one thing for sure Leroy done learned purty good is how to "pull chain" HH, Charlie
Get a 6 inch coil for that 705 if you don't have one and get to work. You put it at #1 for a reason. It's probably the hardest to get started with but listen for high tones and same number tones or at least close. Don't crank up the sens usually 20 is about perfect unless in a field.
