Hendrix.....that's a decent coin to ring ratio! My coin to ring (gold ring) ratio is much higher than yours, but I am hunting my own areas which don't likely contain many gold rings BUT....when ther IS a gold ring I'll be diggin' it 'cause I dig almost everything from 44 up. That said, 'yall know I have a ton of trash......I also get alot of coins AFTER I dig what was over top of that last signal! My areas have been "cherry-picked" too.

Also run the ground balance about 5-10 numbers below what it balances out after you "pump"it!

Why do you do that?...what does that do for you? Thanks!

It will typically get you a little more depth.

The mind game I commonly use with myself is to go to a "ring confidence" type site (beach) and hunt for pull tabs (mid range signals) and get a nice suprise every once in a blue moon when a large gold ring hits at something higher than 55-58. My buddy let me scan his three rings and one was 52, one 55 and one 70! The high one had silver mixed in with gold, and had a nice row of stoned on it! Anyway, they're few and far between so I just hunt pulltabs until my patience wears out, and then an hour more. This sometimes works out, but that's the way it goes.....if it were easy and cut-n-dried, everyone would be doin' it!

Rks I do the same settings a lot, I found by manually ground balancing -5 to -10 really helps with deeper targets and almost blows my headset off on shallow targets.

I don't have any count on rings vs tabs but I am sure it's at least 100 -1

Tell me.....just how many pull tabs will you dig for a gold coin or ring?

It might be better to save the pull tabs and turn them in for scrap. You'll probably be able to afford a gold ring that way first

It's better to cherry pick Parks before your competitor's do, than fine tune afterwards. just my opinion.
