Hi, folks!
I just joined this forum, and I am happy to be able to learn from and speak with other metal detecting hobbyists!
I say that I am sorta new because back in around 1992 or so, I wanted to start metal detecting, so I saved my pennies from my job to buy a Garrett Grand Master Hunter CX-III. I loved the unit and it did pretty well. Things being things, when I went to college a couple years later, I just dropped the hobby for the most part.
Fast forward to 2015. For the last couple months, I have been dabbling in the Facebook metal detecting forums. I then found some regular message boards. Reading about people's adventures and finds rekindled the memories of the fun I had.
After enough reading, I decided to jump back into the game. I asked around and researched a lot and found that the Garrett AT Pro was a very highly-recommended machine, certainly able to meet my needs. So, I pulled the trigger...got the unit, a hunting package and the 5x8" coil. I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of the goodies so I can get back in the swing of things. I am stoked to get back hunting, and hope that some of my experience in the past still is viable now. Time will tell.
That said, I hope to learn a lot from you all. Thanks for letting me be a part of the community!
