Lanny Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Another great series of posts, truly enjoying the ride, helps beat the winter blues, and I'm learning helpful new information as well while I wait for the ground to thaw and the snow to leave from my gold fields. Thanks for your time and dedication. All the best, Lanny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP so do you recommend using HY/Difficult even if the ground can handle HY/Normal? thanks... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, the ground conditions determine the approach but you need to be aware some targets respond better in certain modes regardless of ground. Normal is by far the deepest punching mode on the GPZ if the conditions allow. My approach would be to go over certain sections that are productive again to cover off on any targets that might have been missed due to the target signature falling into a dead zone. JP PS as an aside the volume of Normal sounds a lot higher than the difficult modes, so if you are primarily using Normal then it will pay to lift the Target Volume a few points to compensate so things sound more natural to the ear. Going from one to the other can be confusing especially Normal to Difficult making you feel half deaf. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
