I am sure there are much more things to consider when starting out, however these are the core issues you may come across. I hope this helps.
So you want to get into metal detecting. Here are the steps:
- Expectations. What are you expecting? Looking to make it rich? For the most part that isn't happening unless you get real real real lucky and you will get frustrated easy with that mind set. Looking to get out for some exercise and fresh air? Maybe learn something? Is this something you will enjoy no matter what you find? Then this is the right approach.
- Research. Look into the area you will be hunting. Are there many other detectorists in the area? Are there places to go? Do you mind driving to find spots?
- Logistics. Are you able to afford the time and money? The detector, batteries, digger, pinpointer, gas money, and other expenses are just some of the things to consider.
- Equipment. Start small. A garden shovel. A screw driver. An affordable machine should be your primary purchases. An Ace 250 OR bounty hunter is an inexpensive way to get into the hobby. You may regret spending a bunch of money only to find out that this hobby isnt for you.
I am sure there are much more things to consider when starting out, however these are the core issues you may come across. I hope this helps.
