Visiting With Jim Straight


Recommended Posts


I bought my first "Nugget" hunting detector from Jim, a Compass Gold Scanner Pro. Jim and I both belonged to a couple of different detecting/prospecting clubs back in the 80's & 90's, Chino Valley Prospectors and Riverside Treasure Hunters. Jim and his books have been a great help to me over the years and a man I truly look up to in the field of detecting.

A legend and an inspiration to us all who swing a detector.

It's nice to see that Jim is still around. Great guy and prospector. I have nearly all his books. (autographed of course)

Best wishes!

Hey Guys,

   Jim Straight is a Icon in the Gold Prospecting and Metal Detecting industry.  He is also a long time mentor of mine, without his friendship and publications, I doubt I would have been as successful as I have been.  

His books alone are worth their weight in gold.  The Nuggetshooter's Bible, 8th edition is highly recommended, but it's difficult to find now as it's out of stock and I doubt will be re-published.  I sold hundreds of them over the years.
