Just brought home my new metal detector

[Silvertip]

After much reading and talking to salesmen I came home with a White Prizm III. To me, anyway it was the easiest to use. Affordable for first time with enough capabilities to keep me happy for quite some time. Plus it's made right next door in Oregon. Just getting ready to head out on a 4 day camping trip. Looking forward to finding many bottle caps and pull tabs. 8)

Grats on your new detector
If you've never owned one , starting out can be a bit overwhelming
at first but just remember , it's like the first time you drove a car , everything seemed difficult with so much to remember but after a few hundred miles you were rollin' down the road without even thinkin about it
Good hunting and keep us posted

Very good choice. It will serve you well and you can find many many bottle caps and pull tabs at a campground. I have left quite a few of them at campgrounds myself myself. Now I have to go back and find them.

Congrats on the new detector.

You'll like that maching, it's a good one.

I agree, dig everything.

If for no other reason just to learn what it's telling you. It may get frustrating but you'll be glad you did it later.

Welcome and congrats on your first detector, good choice. As the others said, it will take some getting used to, remember the tones and signals, and dig everything. I look forward to your future postings. Enjoy your camping trip and it would be best to start looking around the beach or water at the campground where more people gather.
