Capphd Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Disclaimer: I didn't go to a site that had been beaten to death by me for 40 years. That's typically how I try out a new machine or coil. But I had just gotten a new permission that I was eager to hunt. I swung the 11x13 for two days and loved it. When the farmer came by the truck and saw the relics, he said, "As many people as have hunted this place for so many years, I just don't see how stuff keeps getting found." So, while I haven't hunted the site, it has been hunted. Pictured are my finds for the two days. Dug several large artillery fragments also. I just know there is a shell in there. I did minor tweaks on DHC such as decreasing reactivity and silencer for the mild soil with little trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lodge Scent Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Well done. That is a pile of lead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capphd Posted February 12, 2023 Author Share Posted February 12, 2023 One other thing. Concerning the weight, I never had to rest because of a tired arm/shoulder. That's saying something when you are 61. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPT_GhostLight Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 That's very impressive, well done! How was the pinpointing on that large coil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still learning. Sometimes spot on. Other times inexplicably off. Guess I need to pay closer attention. Fortunately, I was in the woods and not someone’s yard.

I'll have to look at the 11x13" coil closer, thanks for your report! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious to know because I could not use even a 11 coil without a pinpointer now ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
