ColonelDan Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Just getting back in the game. I was more concerned with hurricane prep the last few days than the forum to be quite frank about it. F350 gave you an effective program from which to start. Keep in mind that pre-determined settings only serve to get you in the ballpark. It’s then up to you to pick the best seat! 😊 Adjust/tailor those settings to your particular environment and you’ll be fine👍🏻 Go get ‘em….. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my location it makes iron targets stand out and look like nonferrous targets. I routinely tested deep fringe targets between modes [Beach and Beach Sens] Just did not like the way Beach Pitch performed at all. Only disadvantages, no advantages. When I was on .71 every piece of iron rang up good. When I went to 1.1 all that pretty well quit. It really helped me. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I get back on my machine for the season, I do plan on going to 1.1. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look forward to your reviews of V1.1 for your beach and water hunting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlehead Posted September 12, 2023 Author Share Posted September 12, 2023 Just wanted to post an update to this and say thanks again to everyone who gave me some tips. We ended up going to Myrtle Beach SC instead of Gulf Shores. Upon arriving, I loaded up Beach Sensitive and changed the tones to pitch. I accepted everything 40 and above per the advice given here. Eventually I did end up narrowing my accepted range to 40-70 because my time there was limited and I was tired of digging clad. The Deus 2 performed great. The tones and behavior were very similar to my land program, which is what I was hoping for. I was digging some targets at well over a foot deep, so no issues there. Everything was working well, so I didn't make any changes for the rest of the time I spent there. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, right? Anyway, I had a blast! Really enjoyed beach detecting and look forward to doing it again. Here's a video of the hunt for those who care to watch: 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F350Platinum Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Nice one Rattlehead! TBH I kinda skipped to the wrap up, but the Starship D2 is a riot. 🤣 I see you were on North Myrtle, that's the best place near the hotels. I hunted South Beach by the campgrounds and got tons of deep stuff others missed last spring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right. Lots of traffic on that beach! We stayed at the Paradise Resort so getting to the beach was just a matter of riding the elevator down and walking out the back. It was really fun. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still want to try my hand at detecting for gold soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
