New coil....... New finds,.

michigan michael · May 23, 2009

My 9x 12 coil arrived today for my ace 250. I was worried I made the wrong choice due to many people telling me to buy the sniper coil and the 9 x 12 is only good for fields. I had a great time with the new coil! I went back to my childhood home that I have permission to hunt and pulled some more nice items out of the ground. 1919 wheat that was 10+ inches.

,1936 Wheat, a 1956-d Wheat, (where a porch use to be. It is in great shape!) 5 Cars 22 LR shells, corn holder, and Clad. One of the cars says MADE IN THE USA! SERIOUSLY! NO JOKE! I also found 2 canning jar lids marked balls on them. The 9 x 12 produces in more places than just fields, that for sure.

the reason they said that about the 9 x 12 was it is harder to separate targets with a larger coil......BUT........as you found out it also goes a lot deeper, so it is a trade off. I think the stock coil on the ace is small enough, I hated my sniper coil when I hunted with my ace, I traded it off. I think you made a smart move getting the larger coil.
Nice finds!

How much depth can you count on loosing if you do use the sniper coil? Anyone narrowed that down yet?

That drag car is a tootsie toy car. There are a few to that set. I have found three of them so far. They made the cars in many different colors also.

Great hunt. I might have to play with my ace 250 more. I took the larger coil off and put the small stock coil back on so my 4 year old daughter could swing it.
