Digger's there a joke just think of what they would find if they swung a real detector...and what is with that beep you hear on every swing, if that's the truth...and why does the at pro have such a cheap sound to it, exspecialy when it's high pitch iron target...they are a pretty pathetic pair...white's had iron audio light years ahead of garret...
...... WOW liftloop here is a Garrett hater.... I thought tnet. put a stop to things like this..... I thought we were not to cut at members or detector makers ????.. Did i just snipe at a members opinion. ??? Nope i did not that was not a opinion ... That was a hate crime...

.... Come on liftloop you know that they can only do what the show producers will let them do.......Like any show on tv.....Like American Diggers if they want to be on that show and draw a pay check ... They just do what they are told to do by the man with the money .... like every one here that work's for a living....... They all do what the man with the money says....... And every one don't like them for doing what they do..........

Guys are beyond annoying, if I was MDing with someone who jumpes up a tree, slide through the field, or crawl through a dog house id walk the other way. I could see if they found a big honking diamond or rare gold coin. Give me a break your grown men act like professionals. People are gonna see them and think we all act like that, its embarrassing.

Gotta chime on again, for all those that haven't heard before. The diggs are not staged, what typically happens is Tim has a camera man and Tim has one, they are both mic ed with one sound man. They dig all if their holes and the camera gets their reactions but the item goes back in the hole and flagged for the Archie to log, every find that is old is marked. Again we have used the lingo for years foiled by the foil found a found and so on. We don't usually fondle a tree mostly because when we hunt here in Montana we are usually in a big field and there are no trees to fondle :0) anyway happy hunting and please ask whatever questions you want but remember I'm just good friends with the two, there are 4 of us that hunt together. RM, KG, Bones and me T.O. Yep we all have nicknames, so I don't have control of the show and to tell you the truth neither does kg and rm. hh

Montana..thanks for the info...tell the guys they are doing a pretty good job.

I mentioned before that I had DVR'd the shows. I highly recommend doing so. I'm glad I DVR'd them because when they start going off with their nectarizing roundness sillyness I hit FF a little. Anyway, The first one was horrible but I wanted to give it a fair shot. Ive just finished the Cape Cod one and I think they're fine tuning it a little bit. It's getting a little better. It's not good enough to watch live. Fast forward works in my favor.
I will say that although their curbing their lunacy a bit but the Garrett sounds are horrible. You can not base your decision on purchasing a Garrett on this show. You see the coil swinging and you're hearing a propointer. They're saying it's a "slammin" signal and it sounds like iron... My 11 yr old watched for a few minutes and he said, "Ma, what's the matter with his AT Pro? It sounds horrible!" and he doesnt get to use mine too often and he still picked up on it. They really need to work on that.
I have not seen "American Diggers" and don't plan to.

I asked to get permission to the Stugis library back in March 2012, probably before the episode was filmed and they said the place has already had an archeological dig and had been thoroughly scoured for objects of interest. They said they'd prefer to leave anything else left there undisturbed.
