Sooooo, Is Bigger Better?



So, check out the size of this coil and detector setup. Now that's a [size=large]huge[/size] search-coil!





Here's Charles Garrett at earlier times.

You better bring a grave diggers shovel for that first detector if you want to get to the treasure.
Man that was way before pin pointers and depth estimation days.

I remember using my Garrett DeepseekerADS III in the early 80's. I dug a balled up cigarette pack at elbow deep. That was 15" measuring tip of fingers to elbow.

I've not dug a target that deep since I returned with modern machines. That was about 34 years ago - and Garrett rocked!

I do wish I still had my ADS III, lost along the way in my travels.....

First detector I ever played with was my grandpa's ADS groundhog I believe. Used it to find aluminum arrows after target shooting before archery season in the mid 80s
