This morning I'm headed 30 minutes east to a backwoods town to try my first cellar hole hunt.

There is 3 old partial foundations that may or may not have been hunted.
It will be a new experience with the 5x8 coil on my AT Pro.
Gonna run with,
Pro
Zero
35 iron disc
Sensitivity -2
Iron audio on

Hoping for some buttons,bullets and buckles but I'll have fun anyways lol

If I have any luck I'll post my finds
Happy Hunting

If you do not find anything with the set up you listed I would reduce the discrimination to about 5 or 6 and look for some cool relics.

I dont recomend hunting with iron audio on...its really for helping to id an individual iffy target,old rusty nail or steel bottle cap.I would be driven insane with IA left on while swinging.other settings are much like my go to daily settings and give enough info for most places.5x8 a very good call...must have coil for any atp owner and perhaps the best money I have ever spent on optional item

Loco and bigfoot know their stuff.
Definitely reduce disc and use iron audio as a tool.
Let us know what you find.

Peace ✌

I usually hunt them with 0 disc, 90 degree your signals if you want to reduce digging iron. Dig every anomaly in the iron grunts. Ignore VDI. When signals start to get really rare otherwise then iron, go back and try your settings in the OP, sometimes it picks out something you missed. Best bet, start digging some iron as you go and get it out of the way.

Does it seem that the site has been detected before?
Will you return?
What are your "keepers"?
Thanks
Peace ✌
