  1. I took the 6000 with the 12x7 NF into a wash I found my last 5 nuggets in last year before I headed back to Montana and I found a few more. I hit this wash when I got back here in October with the 11" and again with the 17" and couldn't hit on anything at all. Well I decided to go in there with the 12x7 and got 3 small ones in the lower stretch and went back yesterday for an evening hunt and hit on a deep 10"-11" .47 of a gram about three feet away from where I found one from last year in the bottom of the wash. This coil is definitely a really good coil.

  2. I think the 12x7 is more sensitive than the 11" round and I am thinking it is going to hit on tiny gold better and perhaps deeper. However, I think some gold at depth the 11" is still going to outperform the 12x7, such as the 23 gram caliche encased crystaline nugget I hit on at I think 14"-14 3/4" deep. You can't expect a 9" equivalent coil to outperform an 11" coil for depth on some gold. That is comparing apples to oranges. I think the 12x7 will stay on my 6000 most of the time in Arizona. 

  3. And the 6x8. I will need to rework some waste piles too. I am thinking about building a boom up there to help move all of that limestone rubble out of our way. Only problem with this is we have to put it back by hand as well. We have to come up with an efficient method by hand. I'm thinking. 🤔

  4. Well I have tried the Coiltek 9x14 and now the Nugget Finder Xceed6000 12x7 and in my opinion the NFXceed is by far a superior coil. I was concerned at first about it's ability to punch deep and I was also concerned about it's depth capabilities in auto 1 & 2. I am not concerned any more. Two days of detecting close to my camp and I hit 7 nuggets. 4 the day before yesterday and 3 today. All 7 nuggets were deep, for each nuggets size. The 2 deepest ones were 11" deep. One of those was a .7 and the other was .9. This coil is a deep punching coil and here is a tiny one my buddy Gold Ryder got with his 12x7 coil on his 6000. Gold Ryder and I are going to kill it on our claims this spring and summer.  Video of these nuggets being dug up coming soon.

  5. Got 3" of snow here in Arizona today. I looked up while editing a video and these guys and gals had come to visit. Also my coyotes are glad I am back. They come running any time I call to them. I like living with Coyotes much better than Grizzlies. Sometimes they will lay down on the tailing piles here at camp and just hang out with me.

  6. Well I suppose I will share this great news with all of y'all. Minelab asked me to be a Minelab Detexpert with gold detecting - Gpx6000 & Gpx5000 and I accepted the invitation. There will be more good videos from Gold Seeker Adventures with some videos having more to do with tips and strategies with the Gpx 6000 and the Gpx 5000. After holding the Manticore in my hands, I do believe I am going to upgrade my vlf from the Equinox to the Manticore as soon as I am able to turn loose the money. Impressive machine!
