  1. Oh can I ever relate to this! I, too am cursed to digging foil for a long time. I frequently hunt a old large park that is full of trash. One day I hit a spot where I.’ve pulled several pieces of silver, when I hit a solid “1” that appeared to be kinda long and shallow. It didn’t give the iron grunt, but I wanted to ignore it. I actually walked away but curiosity got the best of me. I plunged my digger in and was couldn’t believe what was hanging from the plug. I sliced it in two, but I quickly found the other half. It’s plated, but sure made me aware of what I could be passing up.
  2. Tiftaaft My 15” coil arrives tomorrow so I was searching forums for tips/problems before I start using it. When I read your recent post, I thought I’d share what I’ve learned. The jumpy VDI might be reduced if you back off on the recovery speed (RS). I found this when using the 11” coil, when I can, I back off the RS when swinging over a jumpy high tone and it does calm down. Try ithis with a variety of high-tone targets and see if it helps. From what I’ve read, most guys swinging in test gardens find that it is necessary to use a RS of 4-5 with the 15”.
