What are the best detecting videos

[fliermartin]

I love watching the metal detecting videos they have on youtube. Does anybody have some favorites.
I like stealth diggers, the hoover boys, the silver slinggers, and cut a plug. My channel is DDM metal detectives If you want to check it out.
SO what channel does everybody else like.

Nuggetnoggin and Beau Ouimete (I misspelled that) are both good as well.

Sorry but i do not care for youtube metal detecting videos

The best guy I have found who has good detecting practices and is very clear on what he's doing with the detector. Great videos. I also like George Kinsey and Relics1864. DetectorComparison does the best underwater videos I've seen.

Give my channel a look!

Ca Relic Adventures
If you only watch one... Make it the "Silver & Gold COIN SPILL/CACHE -- AMAZING"

Have you watched the video I mention above? It's worth every minute!

 

[fliermartin]

Yes I did it was a great video its what everyone of us want to happen someday. I'm sorry I forgot to mention Dirtflicker he has good videos to.

I agree, Beau Ouimette (Aqua Chigger) and Nugget Noggin hands-down are my two favorites.

Ron Swenson's "California relic adventures" are always fun.

I have watched every one of Nugget Noggin's videos that I could find and it's hard to beat his enthusiasm, optimism, and his excitement over just about everything he digs up ("Wooooooowwwwwww!!! That's OLD!") *L* However, in the last couple of videos that I watched he has introduced a new "feature" that is a little... um, off-putting, so to speak. If you can get beyond that, though, he still makes very entertaining videos.

Another one I like a lot is from Germany, Terra Germania (Hans) makes TV-quality videos and he also makes some wonderful, very old finds - Roman, Celtic, medieval, 1700's, 1800's, etc.... very interesting stuff!

Give this guy a check:

As annoying as he can be, Jeff Williams has a bunch of very good and informational videos on gold prospecting/detecting.

I also like nuggetnoggin and Bill and Howard from the dig fellas series. While not so much prospecting as detecting, these guys make great videos. But Jeff is king. There is a old guy in Arizona, cant remember his name. He runs a pay to play over there. If I remember his name Ill bump up the thread.

Not a youtube channel, and not a reality show, but detectorists from the BBC is great

Stealth diggers are my favorite . Also enjoy Beau and Metal Detecting Oregon

The early nuggetnoggin vids are awesome

Things that I DON'T like to see (or hear) in a detecting video:

Exaggerated enthusiasm.

Long, cinematic lead-ins that take up half the video.

Titles that sound more like a professional archaeological expedition rather than a hobbyist on a weekend hunt.

Requests to subscribe to someone's youtube channel.

Heavy metal music.

Rap music.

Slick comparisons of two or more machines of different brands, usually involving depth or target separation, and always leading to a clear winner.

Ok, enough negativity. Here's some things that I DO like to see in a video, and there's plenty of examples out there:

Real hunts with live digs by regular, every-day detectorists whose only motivation is to share their love for the hobby with the rest of us.

Real enthusiasm for a good find. This may involve dropping the camera or letting fly with an expletive or two, but that just helps to convey the finder's excitement.

In-field comparisons with different machines on unknown targets by people who have no reason to promote one brand over another.

Videos that demonstrate a machine's capabilities without exaggerating its strengths or minimizing its weaknesses.

Anything that teaches me something new about a particular machine, or a hunting technique, or just plain helps make me a better hunter.

It's not easy to make a good detecting video. Probably a lot more work than most people realize. A big THANK YOU to those that do it right! Two of my favorites: "DirtFishing" and "relics 1864"

Silverslingers. I find her videos fun and entertaining.
