First Hunt with the Deus, I'm impressed!
I'm in love. Haha, but seriously this Deus I received today is fantastic-I'm extremely excited, it's going to be a great season.
I only found two coins, a 2011 Canadian quarter, and a 1958 silver dime. The quarter was a surface find, but the silver dime was another story. It's not so much the silver dime that I'm happy about, it's WHERE I found it that really blows my hair back. I was at my go-to spot, where I have detected not a few times, not a bunch of times, but literally over a hundred times. I wandered, no gridding, I just wanted to roam around and let the machine speak to me. It's a whole new language, but was able to discern some sounds. I also dug a bunch of shotgun shells and various other odds and ends. Along with the dime, I also dug a few pieces of "junk" that you'd want your machine to pick up, like little copper pieces. When I dug the dime, I KNEW it was going to be a good target, I think I even said "that's gotta be silver" before I dug. It was amongst trash, and it was very deep!
That's the other thing...I am very impressed with how deep this thing goes. I was digging many targets deeper than 8 inches, you can see in the one pic of digging a shotgun shell it was almost as deep as the pro pointer, I'm not used to that. The ATPro is a great machine, but the Deus is a killer!
