CAPTN's Minelab SE Videos!! ** UPDATE: ** I Added A Few More!! Enjoy!!

Hello My Friends!!

In this post, I've compiled a series of videos that my hunting buddy, Jon(GoldenApples), captured last year from some of our hunts.

I'm doing it for all my Tnet buddies who can't hunt right now due to the extreme weather conditions. Most of these I'm sure you have viewed in the past, but I actually enjoy watching them again from time to time. I hope you will too. I haven't detected with Jon in quite some time now since he's been so busy with his work. I miss hunting and filming with you, buddy!! I hope someday you will be able to share in the continued passion of the hobby as I have. :thumbsup:

Enjoy, My Friends!
Keep The Passion High!! :thumbsup:

CAPTN SE
Dan

Thanks, Buckles. Glad you enjoyed them. It will be two years this February since purchasing my SE. Most of these vids were taken in late '07 - early '08.

Thanks for the Videos guys, you two are definitely pros at what you do! I love the bent probe Capt uses to hold open the plug, I may have to try that myself.

Dan,

The video where you dig the merc in the plug next to the pipe demonstrates that the machine/coil combo you're using seems to have target separation abilities that rival the F-75. That's one thing I've always wondered about. I know what my next machine will be! Nice vids! - Jim

Re: CAPTN's Minelab SE Videos!! ** UPDATE: ** I Added A Few More!! Enjoy!!

Thank you for posting these! NOW I know what I should be listening for!! I have passed countless silver coins under my coil at home, only to hear that high pitched SINGLE note, in the ground I see that there multiple notes INCLUDING the high tones. It kind of makes me wonder how many I passed over listening for one tone, I am still waiting for my first silver, if I would have seen the videos a couple of months ago I might have one (or more)!! When are you coming out with your training video?? Put me on the list for one of the first signed copies!! HH Joe

Hey.... Great Stuff, Dan. I think I enjoyed watching you guys as much as finding that stuff, myself...........(almost).

Great silver. Nice looking dirt too. Not like that nasty red stuff that we have here in this part of NC.
