Steve Herschbach Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I was fortunate while at the recent GPAA show in Las Vegas to meet Brandon Niece and his wife Katie. Just a super nice couple, and Brandon a real metal detecting expert. He is known on the forums as Dr. Tones and has a popular YouTube series, Dirt Fishin America, with over 22,000 subscribers! Long story short Brandon has a new book out and I got to take a look at it during the show. It is called The Metal Detecting Bible: Helpful Tips, Expert Tricks and Insider Secrets for Finding Hidden Treasures. It is what I like in a book - clear, concise useful information with excellent illustrations. In particular, the book focuses on the latest methods including the use of GPS units while detecting. Other subjects include: Choose the best metal detector Learn where to search and why Practice appropriate swing techniques Integrate advanced GPS technology Scout out beaches, parks and historic sites Gain permission to hunt on private property Identify antique coins, relics and jewelry Use handy target recovery tools Clean and safely preserve your finds Sell your finds for a profit With a five star rating for its 144 information packed pages it is well worth a place on the detectortist bookshelf. You can get it from Amazon or your favorite detector dealer. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flakmagnet Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 It's been awhile since a good detecting book has been published. It's always fun to give them a read. It takes a lot of time and effort to write anything, to put together a concise metal detecting book must be quite a chore. I wish Brandon the best and will order a copy to help support his contribution to us all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reno Chris Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 The book looked so good at the show that I bought me one. Brandon seemed like a real nice guy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
