Hello,
New guy here. Been studying the forum, taking notes and copying and pasting all the tips and tricks I can find. (Thanks everyone). Bought a whites M6 and have been reading and reading the manual. Took it out last week, first day 3 quarters 3 dimes 2 nickels 7 pennies. Two days later went back to same spot and found 9 nickels! etc. I'm keeping that discrimination low. Someone else hunted there before I got back the second time, so I spent about 40 minutes filling their holes (bringing dirt from the surrounding woods). They must have carried off some of their plugs, because that's all they left was a hole, big enough to twist an ankle. Anyway had fun. Being pretty pooped out, I got sloppy on my last dig and somehow stepped on my headphone cord and ripped the plug right off. Guess I better learn when to fold em and when to hold em.
The one thing I concentrated on was, that whenever I decided to dig, I listened to the sound, looked at the display, and asked myself what I thought I might have. I think this a good approach for me. I called about 5 out of 9 nickels. Well I hope to learn a thing or two in order to give back, for those who have freely shared for my benefit.
