experience, quality of equipment or patience a successful hunter

[RlakeDave]

Yesterday I joined two seasoned pros from Sebring Fl for a half day hunt at a park.

I managed 4 quarters, 4 dimes and fourteen pennies. Not fantastic but the pros managed over 40 quarters dimes not many pennies
obviously a major difference

Your thoughts on keys to a successful hunter.

When I first started and came home with a bucket of trash and a few CLAD I was a happy camper. As time went on, I learned my machine, technique, and swing patterns.
That bucket of trash and few coins and relics started to swing toward coins and relics. Still trash though. You cant get away from that.
In fact, you will be surprised how gold hits in the trashy zone. "dig it all".
What I thought were hunted out parks, because of what I know now, I have been coming home with stuff I cant believe I missed.

Yes I am sure a $2000 machine finds more than a $200 dollar machine BUT for those of us who cant afford the luxury of an expensive machine, learning the one you got could open new doors for you.

Before long, you will be guessing the targets by the tone before digging them.
