Welcome! Go to the bottom of the main page, where the State Boards are (Ohio) to find locals.
Best you can do is research your own regarding which detector. Ask 10 people, and you'll get near that many different replies. Decide how to spend your own money, don't let someone else do it for you. At least read enough to ask about a couple specific detectors that interest you, then post your questions.
Welcome to Tnet from a Lorain county coin shooter. What kind of detecting are you planning on doing? Coin shooting parks and permissions, or are you a relic hunter who will spend much of your time in fields or woods?
Welcome, There are a lot of choices depending on your budget, type of targets desired, and where you plan to search. Feel free to give me a call to discuss options.
