Re: IL Forum April 1st "Field of Fools" Hunt....

etrac coils to this hunt. i have heard great things
about different coils for etrac but would like a demonstation
before deciding on purchasing one. any type appreciated for testing.
esp want to try smaller accelerator coils.
thank u in advance. S

In addition to those that tommyboy has, I also have the 5" accelerator you can give a try. I love the seperation on that thing, especially in iron infested areas.

Re: IL Forum April 1st "Field of Fools" Hunt....
Yes Sir,we are getting very close...
I am getting thirsty Gimme....Beer and BBQ....
Anyone heard how D-Dub is coming on the Pro coil conversion for field hunting
I have a few things I am going to try with the Pro coil myself,if it works I will share with all.....
Gimme looks like you can use the SE,not sure if the Etrac will be back from minelab by the hunt,if it is you can use it....
The weather starting next week looks dry and up to 60 degrees on wed,couple more days and we will have an idea what friday will be like,I hope for some more rain towards the end of this week,if it gets to dry the plowing will begin,which would not be good news for us....So pray for rain folks...but not to much
Also has anyone heard from P2C,I am having no luck contacting him,if you know if he is still coming to the hunt or any info please pm me....
Thats about all for now..
