Mystic Dolphin

Fred Thank you so very much for the advice I talked with Chris not 100% sure yet but keeping the X 705 might be a big possibility. I told him I wouldn't have a problem with that...

Oldies thank you so very much I appreciate that.. I do enjoy the relic hunting a lot I am in no way saying I won't go out nugget hunting again. I most definitely will because I love to go and hang out with Chris. I go and dig all his targets lol just like I know he will go with me when I relic hunt as he has stated he enjoyed going with me to the beach doing detecting. So I think it will all work out great in the end for both of us no matter what we will spend a good fun time with each other... ; ) agin thank you all for all of the advice it is most appreciated!

Hendo, It's not that I am or want to give up on those machines... I just like doing the coin,relic and jewlery hunting and was looking to get a machine that would better suit that type of metal detecting... I am not sure the 705 will do that for me... I have already tested the gold bug pro out on it and unfortunately there was no way for me to descriminate the trash from the good targets with it.. I had to dig every last little noise it made... I have yet to be able to test the 705 out on it... I just know I want to have a machine I can use for the relic stuff and still be able to go out with Chris on his trips for nugget hunting... I am very easily disappointed when it comes to stuff and I guess this is what has happened with the nugget hunting I have been going out for a long while now with Chris and have watched him and others pull nuggets out of the ground he even got a little meteorite out of gold basin.... I again for the ummm teenth time walked away with nothing. I know that you can find more gold and silver doing the coin, relic and jewlery hunting which is why I have leaned more towards that type of detecting.. I mean it's like I told Chris it's sad when I have more fun metal detecting and digging up our front yard than I do going out to supossed gold bearing places... I just don't know what to do I guess.. Thank you for your advice though it is much appreciated...

Just wanted to stop in and say, That I absolutely had fun at gold basin minus the heat and tire issue... it was good to get away from Cali for a few days. I absolutely enjoyed meeting Frank C and his wife two of the nicest people I have met. Frank thank you so very much for your hospitality and knowledge you shared with Chris and I. I am defintely looking forward to going back and hanging out with you guys again. I was just really bummed that I spent 26 hrs in 3 days on foot with Chris in the heat and I did not find so much as a fragment of a meteorite or gold.. I know it takes patience and time but after almost two years I think its been going out with Chris in SO MANY different places and I have yet to fine so much as my first little nugget... Its kinda wearing on me especially here in Cali all I dig is bullets. Gold Basin was awesome such a clean place I did NOT dig any trash there. In fact there was a few times I had to check my dectector because I would go so long with out a target that I started thinking something was wrong with my detector.... LOL But all in all it was a great stay in Arizona and I am anxious to go back in the fall or winter when it is much much cooler!
