I covered the display on my detector and hunted strictly by ear tonight.

How liberating. The number of holes I dug increased by probably one-third, and although I dug an additional one-third trash, we all know digging trash gets you the goods!

I always hunt in tone mode on my detector anyway, and instead of swinging back and forth over every target 500 times trying to get an unattainably-stable target id, I simply had to trust my ear and dig. I like it. I think I'll have my wife sew me a little cloth cover to go over the display. Maybe a tone-only machine is in my future! Thanks for reading!
