Snakes, Thorns And Other Causes For Concern
Hobo replied to Rad Rocks's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
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 -

Hobo replied to Steve Herschbach's topic in Detector Prospector Forum

GPX 6000...... Nope, Staying With My Sdgp 5600
Hobo replied to Tony's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
The difference in the amt. of gold found with the 6000 over a sd used with a GM1000s not enough to justify the $. JMO -
I would put the money to better use than a 6000. Don't need to look for crumbs too deep for a Monster or too small for a 7000.
