Gentlemen/Ladies,
Advice from the professionals needed. I am going to buy a new detector and would like to know your opinions on these three? A: Fisher CZ20? B: Minelab Excalibur and? C: Aquapulse PI. I have used the CZ20 and Excalibur this past year and enjoyed both. I have never used the Aquapulse. I hunt dry sand , wet sand, and underwater. These three are capable of that. Thoughts, recommendations.
Thanks in advance,
Jimi

I think that you need to decide how much of what type of hunting you going to do. The PI machines work great if you dont have a lot of trash or iron in the area's you are hunting. The minelab is a great machine but can be heavy on land although I have seen a hip mount for them. The CZ is also a good machine not sure of the weight but gets good results. Cladius.

I would go for either a CZ-20, the Excalibur 1000 or a Whites PI or ID (with the PI you go 100 feet whereas with the ID 25 feet (Whites). But if I was to get ONE I would go with the CZ-20 it has amazing depth from what it says at the http://www.losttreasure.com/fieldtests/ review, great great discrimination too.

Thanks for your help guys. I think I will go with the Fisher CZ20 (5 year warr. is a plus) Maybe purchase AquaPulse for all underwater work nsometime next year.

You won't be disappointed with the CZ-20. I use it in the rivers/creeks and beaches as well the deep woods. Hip mounting is easy and the machine works great in all environments.
