Newbie here from central Illinois.

I have about a 10 year old White's Classic IDX with a 9.5 inch coil. I want to get a smaller coil for trashy and hunted areas and was wondering if anybody could give me some insight on what coil to look for? Anybody with an IDX and a smaller coil, how does it work? Is it worth the cost of a coil or is it time to upgrade to a new MD with a smaller coil?
Thanks

I used to own an IDX and now use an M6 as well as an MXT Pro. If the IDX still works fine, then I would just contact whites regarding which of their current coils are compatible. If you're looking to upgrade / update, I always reccomend the M6 in that price range.
