This video is about metal detecting. On this episode, Bill brought out the AT Pro and worked the grass!

[@MrJammor]

Thanks for featuring the AT Pro- that's still the machine I use. I appreciate you announcing the numbers as you found targets-that's very helpful.

[@vickyschoeneweis4036]

Personally, I love it that Christine is so protective of Bill's dome. Besides, it's funny. We all want Bill's dome to be safe and well-cared for, for a very long time to come.

[@the717detector7]

The AT Pro is my machine & I love it! Keep Swingin 💪💪

[@DigginSoCal]

Yes. I watch you use it. It did a great job on this hunt. I will use it a bit more!

[@digginkansasdirt9394]

At the price, nothing but good things to say about the AT Pro. SOLID MACHINE!

[@diggit-n-dunn2886]

Oh yeah Bill don't forget the ground balance

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks... I totally forgot. I did GB it when I fired it up at home in the yard so it still did good. I totally got rusty with it...

[@Danielstdon]

Good Morning Christine and bill have a good hunt. I started with a radio shack detector and then ace 250 and 400 and the quest x10 pro

[@diggit-n-dunn2886]

Bill from the fifties through the 60s it's pull tabs

[@diggit-n-dunn2886]

853 could possibly be gold or a pool table

[@DigginSoCal]

I wanna say I had a RS detector when I was young too. I just can't remember the actual brand back then. I wish I had stuck with the hobby when I had it. I would probably have a lot of silver coins from that era.

[@solocork1285]

Remember where everything was so simple? I do.

[@norcaldigger348]

A silver ring always makes it a great day!

[@DigginSoCal]

Yes... it was an awesome find. Was not expecting to get a good find but was def hoping. That makes this so fun!

[@6061lucky]

You guys are by far the most entertaining and I use the word entertaining metal detecting channel there is thank you so much for your ethic and charming behavior Bill you are a digger Christine stop whining be happy you got somebody that enjoys life and willing to share it with you .

[@annetteessman8827]

Awesome find! 😊❤ TY for my beanie! 😊❤

[@sandystewart292]

It is the William show; tune in and join the fun; watch William scan the lands; finding coins, toys, rings and cans. It is the William show!

[@louisel5009]

You should always put a turtle back in the direction they were headed. She may have been getting ready to lay eggs.🐢😊

[@DigginSoCal]

Yeah, I was just concerned about this little one because it had made it to the road and that could have been bad.

[@diggit-n-dunn2886]

Oh yeah Christine good morning

[@michaelhelios1810]

I must admit that I find Christine's narration rather amusing 🐈‍⬛

[@dawnprochilo8084]

Hey guys! beautiful day to be out there, the parks there a so nice, we can't have nice parks here they would be destroyed in no time and graffiti written everywhere. Congrats Bill on the silver ring! great find! I love when Christine films she finds ways to pass the time and makes us laugh. Good job guys! take care, I'll catch you with your next video.

[@SandyGraskemper-so7ls]

Love my AT Pro, congrats on finding the silver ring. Hope you do more hunts with the AT Pro.

[@RoyWCanada]

Hi Christine & Bill or should I say William show. Neat little hunt and you got a silver ring how special is that. Good camera work Christine nice commentary. Thanks for the video looking forward to the next one.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@goodasgold4072]

Nice to see the at pro in action. Nice ring!👍

[@zedadventures8010]

Morning, this I can relate because I have a Garret. Solid 50’s usually nickel, sometimes pull taps, 70’s to 80 could end up as zinc pennies to copper Pennies, higher 80’s are clad to silvers.. :)

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks for the intel. Yeah, it is always a challenge switching up detectors. I will try and get it out more often!

[@helensmith2839]

This is the William show,nice job on the sterling ring a ding ding.

[@DigginSoCal]

Thank you very much Helen. Christine cracks me up

[@treasurearth]

Fun out with the Garrett, Thanks for sharing.

[@grandmakellymcdonald]

let's go let's go treasure and adventure ✌👵

[@DigginSoCal]

Yes.... love the adventures. always up for some surprises in the ground!

[@GarysMetalDetecting]

Changing it up is a breath of fresh air sometimes. Congrats on the Silver.

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks Gary... that puts me at 11 silver for the year. My goal was only 12

[@PAPAROUSwhatsinthedirt]

Missed this one watching now!!!

[@benjiher8918]

Good morning Another great hunt Thanks for sharing

[@1948bigd]

Alabama bought first detector from Kelley-Co. Have bought more from them. Have old Garrett that I need to pull out and use.

[@DigginSoCal]

Yeah, it seemed to be the goto for detectors back in the day. I like switching it up and working with the different detectors. I now need to get out the Minelab pointer but wow the Garrett is just so good.

[@chaoticadventure]

I just picked one of these up an entire package new in box at the thrift store for $30 today. Seems like a good unit.

[@Drobek6]

Back in the day, when I had the Garrett ace 400, my dream machine was the AT PRO. Its a great machine. I went another path though, bought an XP ORX and a Minelab Vanquish 540 later on. You always brighten my day, with you´re banter, please keep it going :D

[@mariogonzales5346]

When I was thinking of breaking into the hobby, I searched Garrett metal detectors and that is how I found digging SoCal I went out last week in between the rain and got a 44 walker Philly love from Toledo.

[@gregorygibson5455]

Hello Bill and Christine

[@DigginSoCal]

Good morning Gregory

[@paulaj6]

Bill, i hope you rewarded Christine by giving her that ring since she recorded, narrated and entertained us. 😊

[@rininthescoop309]

I need to get my AT Pro back out there.

[@1967bluesfan]

Not sure if you guys do it already but you should definitely consider selling merchandise. I reckon people would love stickers, hats, shirts etc..

[@adventuresinmichiganwlisa9852]

Morning Bill n Christine ☕❣️☕

[@genevievedelaune4050]

I’m loving this, that is the same detector I have and now I’m learning more about it😀 I have found 4 silver rings and one bracelet in the last few weeks. Yep 75 is a penny and a 81 can be a dime or penny. 89 a quarter 😀

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks... nice, I have had the AT for so long and it has been sitting for too long. I have been trying to mix it up with the detectors and it was awesome to find a silver ring with it.

[@digginnorcal2770]

Hey Bill awesome find on the Silver Ring with your Garrett AT Pro machine not to shabby.........Happy Hunting

[@MarksTLC]

I still have my at pro. I don’t use it much since getting the simplex, but still use it for old trashy sites. Still finds the silver coins. And apparently, silver rings-congrats. Catch you on the next one.

[@Trolling4Treasure]

I commented on an earlier video and asked why y’all didn’t dig in the grass. Since then I’ve seen you dig it all. 😊 Hey, that turtle may have been on his way to his girlfriend’s pond. And now he’s gotta start all over. 😂 Love the videos! Love the attitudes!

[@DigginSoCal]

When I started, I never hit the grass. I have grown to love grass hunting. When the beaches are not producing, I can always count on good finds in the grass. I think most of my best finds ever have been in the grass!

[@Trolling4Treasure]

@@DigginSoCal Right on. Since we are brand new to this, the coolest thing we’ve found is a tiny key. Happy hunting!!

[@ohdannyboyjustadiggin]

Those older detectors are still really good detectors .. congrats on the silver.. Happy Hunting. Peace

[@independent5564]

The AT Pro is a very good detector.

[@DigginSoCal]

I agree. I used it for a long time before I started making vids...

[@janeodom3671]

On the beach or sand volleyball courts I use my Nox 800. For anywhere else it is definitely my AT Pro. Still my favorite machine.....

[@detectorguy4565]

It's a good practice whenever you store anything to take the batteries out. Nice little hunt with the Garrett AT pro and rewarded with a Silver ring :) Yeah

[@garymartin6066]

Nice hunt Bill and ring find.

[@AnalogDetectorist]

Bill needs to change his watch notification to "I've fallen and I can't get up!" 🤣

[@BigMamaCat]

😂

[@DigginSoCal]

LOL, The watch does that to me all the time. I wanna see what happens if I do not clear or respond to it....

[@BigMamaCat]

@@DigginSoCal Is it a safety alert watch? My mum has one that keeps dialling my brother to come rescue her when she bumps it. Then one day, she actually fell and it didn't respond!

[@Playing4fun2]

Morning y’all looks like fun still haven’t got a chance to use the exterra pro after the accident maybe some day I’ll definitely let you know thanks for sharing have fun me too

[@DigginSoCal]

Sorry to hear that... hope you are doing better and we are looking forward to hearing about you out using it in the near future!

[@BigMamaCat]

The silver ring made it all worth while 😀 Enjoy the rest of your week, team.

[@DigginSoCal]

Thanks.... Christine took it and is now wearing it after I cleaned it.

[@BigMamaCat]

@@DigginSoCal Oh nice! 😁

[@tyhroneskyles4873]

Jim, hand shovel put blisters on your palm. You need a little eagle.

[@audraacklin9826]

The William's Show has a nice ring to it. 😂❤️ It's great to see Bill taking care of his dome. ❤️😃

[@tkcenterline1]

Nice video. Great ring. Get a Lesche tee handle shovel. It helps.

[@whatsamattayoo]

Congrats on the ring and the other finds! Love your videos:) 😃

[@edheida8825]

Whoa, that’s weird. This morning decided to take out the AT Pro but had to change the batteries first also. No ring though, but did get a $1.10 in change and a twine bracelet with tiny pieces of silver beads. Nice vid and keep your hat on.

[@anthonybruse3894]

Haha the gopher comment so funny😂

[@davidlewis9068]

Christine needs to patent the dome protection patrol for sure.

[@allanohlsen7729]

I still have my AT pro. It served me well. Going over my yard many times, I found a couple wheats and a few copper memorials. Then I bought the Nokta Kruzer, and found a war nickel and a couple more newer pennies. I then bought the Legend and found a merc dime and a Rosie, a really old pocket knife and a couple more wheats, all in my yard, stuff the older detectors missed. I don't plan on resurrecting the AT pro. 😊 I'm glad you found things, bill. The Willam show is great .

[@penkalamike]

Surprised your using the Garrett. Thought had problems with it in the past. Great video.

[@robertfowler9704]

Most of my best finds in the past were with a Garrett ATpro. Good machine.

[@kevincarther4483]

Agreed a great machine, found lots of coins and rings.

[@giampow1]

Even after the axioms, manticores,..and even more expensive machines have passed over many times, I still got the best ever(in 15+ years), right in between the unfilled holes and dug up, thrown aside canslaw, a 2,53ct radiant cut diamond in 5,5gr platinum ring. Dig ONLY in your own country!! Tc.

[@petersutherland7482]

Nicely found on the old faithful Bill, and nicely owned Christine :-) WHAT a team!🤠💃👯‍♂

[@jameshansen4668]

Hey bill and christine, cool ring ,i got some advice, when you get a target you got to sneak up on it because ,,, THE WORMS WILL SWITCH OUT GOLD RINGS WITH PULLTABS!!!! It's true i seen it on the internet! Huh huh huh 😀😀 have a great day!

[@steveandermatt5668]

Most of my gold has come in at the mid 40's, I notch out 35 and below it eliminates bobby pins ,nails and bottlecaps. But not all foil. and I have found a gold bracelet at 38.

[@timb.162]

Great AT Pro hunt the numbers will help my son thanks for sharing your video Bill and Christine ❤

[@zedadventures8010]

Oh yah sometimes on the high 70’s some silvers can pop up and some low 70’s can produce 14K s hehe

[@DigginSoCal]

I would like to find a lil gold with it... I am probably going to run the gold I have under it as a refresher.

[@Garrett_metaldetectors]

Great video! Want to let your followers know, a new machine coming soon. Tune in June 18th, 2024!

[@adventuresunknown1013]

No no no! I rescued a water turtle from the middle of the road to keep him from getting run over. As I was carrying him the rest of the way across the road towards the water…. He bit a small chunk out of my finger and I was holding him back by his hind legs. Yes the turtle can reach that far. We I got to my friend’s friends house I washed it and poured rubbing alcohol into the wound. I guess that I was in shock because it didn’t hurt. Then I put a bandaid 🩹 on it and it healed nicely. You can’t even tell that a small chunk got taken out. If I hold it up to the sunlight I can see a faint line.😊

[@oldpelon7623]

Nice change

[@DigginSoCal]

Thank you!!!

[@michaelpaeschke168]

Opening scene, I thought Bill had a wig on, but it was his hat lol

[@pamandjohnmc]

I had a wild hair once, I fed it carrots.

[@DigginSoCal]

Nice... I remember growing up and caught I wild hair. I had no idea how loud they scream. Didn't keep it but I caught so many critters growing up

[@yodieandme.5801]

I’ve been thinking about dusting off my ace 250 taking the old guy for a ride to the park.😎

[@DigginSoCal]

You should... it is always fun pulling out the old detectors. Wow, did I forget the VDIs

[@yodieandme.5801]

@@DigginSoCal maybe I’ll make a video 🙂

[@pietmuntzoeker9465]

Still a beautiful ring

[@leemon5386]

Amazing how many targets how many holes how many steps you took when you pull out the AT pro now all you need is a predator small blade red handled shovel

[@steveandermatt5668]

I remove my battery pack after each use I have ran into corrosion once and had to get a new battery holder. I water hunt so I think maybe they got wet, but I greased my O- rings and no problem since. Mine is an AT Gold, basically the same machine.

[@talcadetector4018]

Buenos días amigos, exito en sus búsquedas, saludos cordiales desde chile 🙋‍♂️🇨🇱👏🙏⛏️🗡️🤜🤛💍👍🗝️

[@andrewblackwood4604]

You have to go through the trash to find the treasure!!

[@OLdweeb]

After decades of happily using other Garretts, I quit the hobby for years because of the Garrett AT Pro...random chatter on every swing, non-stop unrepeatable 1-way signals, unbalanceable, etc... / Finally discovered Minelabs & have been doing great ever since. / Nice dome cover. 😄

[@pamandjohnmc]

I use only Garrett detectors, and like you guys use their pin pointers

[@DigginSoCal]

Nice... everyone has their preference. I lent my Ace Apex to a friend. I did like it too but probably will never reclaim it.

[@BaconAndPancakes]

Fluffy Fluff

[@adventuresunknown1013]

White worms are grub worms and then the regular worms 🪱

[@adventuresunknown1013]

I bought an AT PRO. I haven’t gotten to use it as much as I would like. But I could clearly see the screws and nails on the surface of the ground but the detector kept showing that it was 6” to 8” deep. After I picked up the screws and nails nothing was in the ground.

[@donnaeli]

Hi!

[@52Mirza]

I would go back to the same park with the Minelab that garret to me is not strong enough.

[@cowgirlcarson55]

Love watching you two! Christine’s humor is the best. 😊

[@davidlewis9068]

That's going to be a real change from the Minelab machines, for sure. Still, it works very well. Did you actually have corroded batteries in it?

[@bobbybenway9726]

Whish I had my at pro back. Someone needed it more than me and took it while I was in the hospital.

[@garymabee7788]

So. Who were your two frogs before your prince? 😳🤪😊😁😂

[@user-ju3mo6id3j]

I would dig that silver nickel j8m

Byeeeeeee 👍✌️❤️☮️💪🏻

[@justinpritchard2096]

Hi guys that’s the only metal detector I use is the AT pro

Lol, almost to China on that hole.

I think you have a sheep inside your pinpointer

He was pretty fast in the water They all are 😂😂😂😂 This is the William Show I say that because it annoys you You say a lot of things that annoy me 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Christine the hunt was only 5 minutes 😂😅😂

Oh my, that is the best recap.... you have us both laughing!!!

Don’t stop believing 😂
