<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim C (Mich), post: 179589, member: 3092&quot;]It is hard at first to find items in the hole.&nbsp; I bought a hand held pinpointer, they are like a mini detector and are used to find the item quicker in the hole.&nbsp;&nbsp; When you get within a few inches of a metal object in the hole you dig, the pinpointer will go off like a detector would.&nbsp; I would not detect without one.&nbsp;&nbsp; I have one now that hooks right up to the detector and used the detectors batteries and sounds off in my headphones.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Thats the reason so many people buy detectors then they sit in a closet.&nbsp; Its not as easy as it sounds or looks.&nbsp; You have to learn what the detector is telling you take time to do that.&nbsp; Best way is to bury various coin types in the ground in a clean area of ground (one minus junk targets).&nbsp; Bury them say around 5 inches down and listen to what each coin sounds like at that depth and go out and dig only those targets.&nbsp; You will be rewarded.&nbsp;&nbsp; The old stuff is 90% of the time down at least 4-5 inches.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Stick with it and you will be rewarded.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
