Is there a beginner's guide here?

Perhaps I am blind but I have been searching around the boards looking for a guide for beginners and have not been able to find one. I have picked up tips here and there but I was hoping there would be a "sticky" with complied information for new detectorists. Anyone know where I might be able to find something to help me out so I get off on the right foot?

To be honest, you can get away with a good quality garden trowel. I used one from Lowes for awhile that never bent or broke. Still have it actually. A digger tool is a nice-to-have though. Cutting the plug a little deeper does help it not fall apart. Say, about 3".

I'll keep that in mind. Going to Home Depot later to see what they have. I'm hoping to get something with a serrated edge but we shall see.
