Detecting Resources What
Will You Be Hunting For? Metal detecting is multi-faceted, providing many avenues of exploration. So, the first step is to determine
your areas of interest. Next, list them according to their importance in
relationship to the amount of time you will be devoting to each.
Is your main interest in searching
for coins and rings, relics from ghost towns and battle fields, caches
concealed for safe keeping, gold nugget prospecting, shallow water
hunting, or scuba diving?
Once you’ve identified your interests, you can begin to match them with
various detectors. In short, there are detectors that do much better at
certain tasks. These are specialty detectors and they should be given the
highest priority of consideration if you will be primarily performing one
specific kind of detecting over another. This is especially true if you will be spending a lot of money traveling in order to metal detect. For example: you probably won't need to purchase a specialty detector for hunting gold if you 're just going to make a stop for the day. There are several detector models available that will do an excellent job at nugget hunting and serve as a superior coin detector upon your return.However, if your trip is specifically for nugget
hunting, that's not the time to scrimp on the detector you use. In this
case you will not want to compromise on the detectors gold hunting
capability. It would be foolish to spend a lot of
money on a trip and then go ill-equipped. It could turn out to be as
disastrous as going Elk hunting with a .22 caliber rifle.
