Kryptonite?

I would get the 24k also.Better than the v stat.

I have been nugget detecting in the AZ. deserts for 45 years and have never been threatened by a coyote, bobcat or even bigfoot. As for snakes, if you can't jump out of the way faster than you can get your digger or 357 out and aim & shoot then u should stay home in your rocking chair. mho

Sucking the juice out of it. Hey you only live once right.🤣 Don't swaller the yeller part.

The Axiom woke me up. Great detector.

Too heavy too.

This is akin to the first m.d. contest I attended back around 196? put on by D Tex detectors and Bill Mahan. Only D Tex won .

I bought my first detector in 1961, a Detectron and started hunting parks and old mining camps in Colo. and really enjoyed it. Started nugget hunting with a Garrett in 1983 in Az. I am slowing way down but I will probably die still owning a detector.

My nemesis is the Sonoran desert, but I'm winning a few battle's

I think the DD 11" coil handles the hot gnd better

The Ax comes with 2 great coils and 2 more at a very reasonable price. The unique DD is special. Love mine.

Do use any, tried em once. Have callouses instead. They are a pain the arse imo.

My AU was grown by bacteria.

Years ago before they started making coil covers we used a large rubber band cut from a car tire inner tube stretched around the coil
