leroym Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Question for Steve Herschbach and othersIn your article in Steve's Mining Journal (Sept 05, Minelab GP 3500 review) you mentioned the 'DetectorPro Uniprobe'.I chased that around and could not find any mention of it being used for pinpointing nuggets in the hole.In 'applications' it only mentions jewelry, relics and coins.If this unit won't work for nuggets then what are you (and others) using for a pinpointer?Thanks, LeRoy (Montana) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Hi,I use a pinpointer when coin hunting turf so as to not damage the grass. Most pinpointers will not hit small gold nuggets at any depth. Big nuggets I just dig up, and small nuggets I "pinpoint" with my plastic scoop. If you wanted a pinpointer for nugget detecting take a look at the Falcon MD-20.Steve Herschbach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norcal6er Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 I have used my uniprobe for nugget hunting only good for 6" max, good when you have the nugget out of the hole in the loose dirt.much easier to use your scoop.Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin nuggethunting Posted August 13, 2009 Admin Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Hey Leroy, Have you tried the DetectorPro Pistol Pinpointer Probe? I sell a bunch of these and they work very well. Talk with you soon,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
