Awesome machine and if you get it for a good enough price you can send it into whites and have the 12" new coil put on it turning it into a $1,000.00 beachhunter300.Fishenfool said:is the Beach hunter ID a good machine? Think of trading my xlt for one. Thank you for your opinions

i would have saved some money by buying the excal first
Guerilla Bill is right the detection field does leach out a couple of inches from the side. Clifflucky d said:"1. With the 12" coil on the BeachHunter, you don't have to be directly over a target to get a tone. You can be 2 to 3 inches off, and still get a tone. This has helped me find more."
i would have to think that your coil is over the target when you get a signal.....i'm no expert , but i believe that the field of detection on any coil is conical.....and that it goes down and gets narrower as it gets deeper.....i don't think the detction field goes outwards from the coil.....i could be wrong, and if i am, would someone else chime in and confirm this for me.....here's hoping you all find your share, no matter what machine you use....good luck and happy hunting
