Looking for advice finding a lost ring in a very thick 6'x15' bamboo forest
I bought my girlfriend a ring for her birthday a few months back and that same night, as she was showing it to someone on a balcony, she dropped it straight down into a very dense bamboo garden below. We searched with flashlights that night but it was dark, we were drunk, and the forest was too thick to enter more than a foot or two. It wasn't super expensive but the fact that she only got to wear it for a few hours makes me feel like we both were short-changed, plus Xmas is coming up and I could really kill two birds here. I looked into renting a metal detector but I think the coil would be too wide to get deep enough, so I was thinking maybe a wand style would work better. I don't know anything about metal detectors though, so any help is appreciated.
