Whites new "300" 12-inch coil: Any Reviews yet on this?

Whites has come out with a 12-inch coil for the DFX and MXT.
Anyone had a chance to try out the new coil?
Need a review or two . . .
Is it worth purchasing?? I already have the standard 9" and 4x6-inch DD.
Pretty happy with that, so it would take quite a bit to tempt me.

I have the Super 12. It is only 3 oz heavier than the stock coil. Gets a little deeper than the stock coil and runs pretty stable. Like any large coil it is best in low trash areas. Lots more info at www.dfxonly.com

I swapped from 950 to Super 12

went from 950 to super 12..on the beach I have got a great increase in depth and very stable easy to swing in surf!! I use this coil on my BEACH HUNTER ID..It is a DFX water proofed...I have hunted fields and land with the coil..I went over spots I thought were hunted out by me with other detectors and coils...its like hunting a new spot!! I got some deep silver dimes..1944 merc and a 1916 barber in great shape!! I am sure the super 12 is the reason I got them..my buddy hunted this area with his EXSPLORER II w/10" coil and did not find them Good luck in your choice!!

Verdicts still out for me. I have only used it a few times. I haven't found anything with it as deep as I have with the stock coil but I plan on giving it a hard workout at Louisiana Bayou Hunt this coming weekend. We shall see!

I didn't think the Super 12 was any better than my 8" EX coil. Glad I didn't pay for the Super 12 (free from White's) anyway, it's gone.

I`ve been using the new 300 coil (beach hunter id) for a couple weeks now and boy i find it harder to pinpoint my target seems like i dig a wider hole just to find my target..i kind of liked the 9.5" coil better for this...but i`m getting used to it. i smile when i get the target in 1 scoop instead of 10 tries... i have found targets the size of a pea so it does hit small targets.

I had the coil installed on my BHID (beach hunting) and it works great!

No problem pinpointing targets (just a little practice and it's easy).

Hot on the smaller targets, works well in the water, fast recovery and more stable!

I really like this coil!!!
