I have attended 4 seeded hunts, each having 7 hunts over a 3 day period and they are a blast. If you decide you want to be a part of one you will have a great time. There are several different styles of hunts, If the hunts are in a confined area of less then an acre with hundred or more attending you will want to use a detector that has a frequency shifter, to avoid the interference of other machines near you....
I highly recommend the Fisher 1235x...The Tesoro Conquistador also has a freq shifter, but only has 3 frequencies, the one on the Fisher 1235x has multiple frequencies on a knob that is easy to adjust while sweeping.....While they are a little hard to find you can pick up a 1235X for a very good price.......
I have the Fisher 1235X that I use strictly for seeded hunts, it has paid for itself several times over and then some. I paid $200 for it, and in just the last seeded hunt alone that I attended, I walked away with over $550+ in prize money...Since getting the Fisher 1235x I have won over a $1000+ in prize money on seeded hunts over the last 4 years.....
Good luck, and welcome to TreasureNet....
