    7 Hunts With My 7000 and I've Zed Enough on Ozzie Forums

    in Minelab Metal Detectors

    Posted

    Been copping too much flak on our Australian forums so I'd rather if Steve does not mind just post on this forum from now on.

    ***************************************************************************************************************************************************

    I've now owned my GPZ 7000 30 days with 50 odd grams in the hand.

    Works out at 1.6666667 grams per day. A week of that I was just a tad sick ( really sick that is ) with the flu and laryngitis working flogged areas that are not renowned for large nugs.Trying to learn this beast.

    I'll take that anytime while I'm still very much a newbie ( 6 months on Gold 15 years as a Beachie ) tongue.gif

    Also just yesterday was a most interesting time for me everything from hospital ( cut my arm badly on a broken branch needed stiches which I declined as the Doc said I'd have to have the arm in a sling ) to a complete computer crash with heaps of challenges in-between. :o

    Wont bore anyone with too much detail but will say I have been out in the field for a couple of days with two GPZ 7000 with a good mate who just happens to be a Minelab treasure talk tester learning heaps.

    Over half an ounce detected using all sorts of settings between us with far to much laughing and drinking in the evening pub mix. >grin<...

    After farewells to that hunt the cream on the cake was giving a bit of advise ( and a small nugget ) to a old bloke who was having heaps of trouble stepping up from his GPX 5000 to the ZED. He was so rapped he wandered back about 10 minutes later and literally (* Talk about X marks the spot *) gave me all his maps and pictures where he has pulled a 109 gram and a 89 gram nuggets in the past with many ounces since. Swearing there is plenty more there. So I'm really hopeful on that trip away when I get time and heal up. :)

    What a nice guy :)

    Ps.... That same old bloke rang me not 3 hours later with the news he and his son had christened his brand new GPZ 7000 with a half grammer his sons first ever. That one call has had me happy all day made my day in fact..
