X35 9" or Old Style?

[Iron Buzz]

I have the 11" coil (old style) and the 9x5" HF elliptical but have been considering adding a 9" to my Deus equipment. Is there any downside to the X35 coil that I need to consider? My hunting is in the US, coins, lots, and farm field artifacts, not tiny hammered coins in the UK. Can somebody talk the pros and cons?

can't talk the Pro's and Con's, but the X35 9" is hard to beat...

Other than cost, no downside.

I purchased the 9 inch X35 coil this year. I’ve been really happy with it so far. I left the 11 inch LF coil as it was just too big for the majority of the spots that I hunt.

Thanks for bumping this. I did go ahead with buying the 9" x35. So far, I love it.

Love my X35 Buzz, cant say much about the others since I don't have anything other than the X35, but it's served me very well!!! "D"

What I'm liking most about it is simply that the size is just right for the machine. The balance is perfect. The elliptical HF is just a tad too light, and the 11" just a tad to heavy... not to heavy to lift or carry, but it doesn't do the "wiggle" as well as the 9". Small point, of course, but in everyday use, that is a nice feature. It also works better in heavy trash than even the elliptical, I think.
