I hope I am not repeating a common question but I searched the forums and could not find it. I am brand new to this. Just got my first MD last week. Took my sons out with me on our first official "treasure hunt" and kept getting hits in high 70's to low 80's showing at a depth of 8+ inches. This was about 3 feet away from the base of a very large pine tree. Dug down about 6 inches never getting a hit from the pin-pointer. Ran the detector over it and still receiving the same hits and still showing a depth of 8+ inches. I widened the hole enough to place the MD head inside and dug it out to 8 inches. Still nothing at all on the pin-pointer and when I placed the MD onto the bottom of the hole I am still receiving the hits ranging from 77 to 86 and it still shows a depth of 8+ inches.
Am I chasing a ghost? We found multiple old umc newclub shotgun shell heads in the area about 8 feet away.
