X-Terra 705 compliment to the arsenal (New User)

[CoilToTheSoil]

Good morning all.
Recently picked up a 705 package with a bunch of coils to compliment my XP deus. While I love the xp, I have a number of sites with heavy undergrowth and heavily nail infested terrain that really challenges the 11" coil on the xp.
The 705 was an impulse buy being a great deal and coming with a ton of accessories. Among the accessories were sun ray pro headphones, grey ghosts, swingy things, detectoropro pistol pointer, a 3khz 9 concentric, a MF 9 concentric, a 10.5 MF DD and another 10.5 MF DD, a 5x10 HF DD and lastly a 6"HF DD.
I was thinking of using this guy in the trashy overgrown sites where the xp just can't swing without being tangled up in briars and vines. Does anyone use the 6er HF in iron infested sites and could provide some feedback? Or would I be better off selling or trading the 6er HF for a LF of the same style?

Tried it out yesterday and pulled some lead and bullets from amongst the iron.

Thanks in advance!

another 10.5 MF DD Why have 2 sell it and get the {edited...because we don't support the use of unauthorized coils in the Xterra forum}

I would not sell the 6"HF. That's been my best coil for finding small gold rings, nickels, and other low conductors. I like to use the 6"HF in all metal with 4 tones in coin mode, but I've also made some good finds in prospecting mode with this coil.

My thought on this would be to first ask what your style of hunting is.
I don't hunt for lead, and I'm not in an area where prospecting is worthwhile, nor am I near many beaches, so I would off that HF coil in a heartbeat.

Since you have a Deus, which is capable of about the same range of frequencies the Xterra is, which frequency do you prefer to hunt with it in? If your answer is 4kHz, then a 6" 3kHz coil would be an obvious choice. If 8kHz is your preference, then maybe the 6" MF CC would fit the bill. And if it's 12 or 18kHz, then keep what you have.

I never had much use for low freq on the 11 Deus, nor recall reading others did either. Since the idea is balance, what about setting the 705 up for small coil hunting with the existing 6 HF and swapping off some of the extra accessories for a 6 inch LF Digger coil?
Just a thought.
Enjoy!
