New to the metal detecting hobby

CygnusX1 · Jun 23, 2018

Just wanted to say hi to everyone!
I am from Covington, La. and I am about to purchase my first metal detector. I am leaning toward getting the Minelab Equinox 600 as my first machine. I want to hit a lot of the old parks, swimming holes and beaches around southern Louisiana and the gulf coast.

Regards!
