I am very Interested in metal detecting! I have not started yet and was wondering if it's ok if I purchase an inexpensive detector seeing as I am just beginning..? Would it still work as well? Any suggestions on which one? I just can't afford $1,000 machine at this time.

Just got my first detector, been looking at them for years... this video was SO helpful! Watched it twice. Been out in my yard twice after spending some time with the instructions and the setup of my detector. So far I found two gutter straps, a 1979 quarter, a 1980 penny, some wire and my late dog Maggie's sterling silver dog tag that she lost in 2012. (made me cry some 😥) Anyway.. thanks so much for this video!!

Don't make the mistake of not double checking your plug after you've found something. Sometimes there's multiple things in the plug and when you find one, you think "Well, that's it," and you put the plug back into the hole without continuing to check it for other objects.

I'm just getting into this at the young age of 70 ... hopefully that's not too old, but this is by far one of the best videos I've found, Larry is laid back and smooth. I hope starting out with the ACE 300 wasn't a waste of money, meaning I hope I shouldn't have spent $1000 instead of $250 thanks for this great video. BTW, where can I get a pouch like yours?

Great info for beginners and well done but I would like to add some important info for your viewers . Knowing the location of any possible underground utilities is extremely important . This applies to major utilities like power,phone,coax cable,fiber optic cables water, and natural gas lines which will usually be put into a common trench line but not always . Most times they're down pretty deep but once again -- not always . I've been a repair technician and I've done utilities locating professionally for several years and I've definitely done my share of digging up lines and seen some lines that were barely under the grass including power lines . I've had to go to emergency locates where someone had dug into a power cable and got hurt pretty bad and in one incident the dig operator was burned over 60% of their body .It was a site I had previously located and had informed the construction company who had requested the locate that the power cable was pretty shallow and to be extremely careful but they didn't heed the warning . It's absolutely imperative to ask questions about the area and the utilities and where there might be sprinkler systems or private wiring like lighting etc and to always exercise caution . Unfortunately that one incident is one of many I could talk about but figured it was worth mentioning . If you haven't already done a video regarding this subject could you please do one ? Happy (safe) treasure hunting !!

Myself and my son and daughter (11 & 9) completed our very first detecting day outside of our backyard (just junk there so far). It was a popular FL beach (tourists and detectorists alike). It was hot so they wore out quickly and retired to swimming the surf! It was a bust for paying for the gas there and back (found all of $0.52!) Found and disposed of a lot of beer cans, pull tabs, pop tops, and tent stakes mostly. But most of all we got to LEARN some hard but also some fun lessons and experiences. The kids shared pinpointing and digging (big mistake not having a sand scoop!!). We WILL be back out, and will try different, (less hunted hopefully) beaches as well as any other site we can access. Thanks for the beginner tips!

You know his dad went out and seeded those perfectly stacked quarters so his son could find them. Hook him early and got a partner for life...lol. Love it! I remember when I was little I would go to my grandparents on occasion. I used to love looking under his favorite recliner for his fallen change and stuff. I only found out later he used to drop it down there on purpose because he knew I liked digging for treasure. I love him for that. It is the little things that make great memories.

I’ve been watching your videos to try and refresh my memory on how to use it. I’ve had kept it charged up and the last download I did was the 2.0.

I purchased a mid priced Fisher last summer, and practiced with it in my own yard and a neighbor's yard. I have gained some confidence with it, but still have a lot more area to search in my own yard. So will probably finish that before venturing elsewhere. The weather is getting better now up here in New England, so can't wait to get back out there. I am retired, so have plenty of time. My best find so far has been a vintage sterling silver heart shaped pendant. I also found an old piece of lead shaped like a padlock, but it is not a padlock. Maybe it is some kind of old weight? I haven't found any old coins yet - just a few copper and zinc Lincoln pennies. And yeah, have found a lot of junk - old nails, screws, foil, wire - all kinds of junk. But i separate and save all metals in buckets. At some point, will recycle the junk metals. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience. I have picked up a few valuable tips in using the device better and digging the plugs. I was digging out the entire circles, and putting them back. I like your idea of leaving like a hinge. I have a cheaper pin pointer that does work, but will probably upgrade everything to something better at some point. Thanks again, and happy hunting my new friend! New sub here!

My friend, it is so nice to meet outstanding human beings such as yourself. I enjoyed your tutorial immensely but it is your care for others and animals that touched me and make me feel good about others in this world. Some complain that masculinity is gone or under attack but real masculinity has always been best defined by the gentleman of the world, like my father, who we just lost two months ago, and by men like you...Outstanding video my friend! Thank you.

Hi Larry. I recently purchased an Equinox 600 that I’m just starting to learn to use. I was a little intimidated by some of the features and have found your videos very helpful. I live in the country in WV on part of an old farm. I have a lot to check out on my own property. But eventually I’d like to hunt on local farms around old houses and buildings or where they used to be. I would never do so without permission. How do you negotiate with a landowner regarding your findings? Do you always have a verbal agreement you can keep 100% of what you find? It isn’t like you hock all your findings and can split the proceeds 50/50 or something like that. I can imagine a land owner not feeling good about you digging up some war, jewelry or coin artifact of some value and keeping it for yourself. I’ve considered to offer to show the land owner everything I find and let them keep as much or as little as they want. I kind of feel like I’m in this for the excitement of the find, not the financial value to me. I could take a picture and then leave my findings with the landowner. Building a collection of the real finds would be better than pictures but not a requirement.

I am glad I am able to help Keith. As far as finds on someone's property, I have only had a couple people that wanted what I have found. In most cases I concentrate on getting the permission and if they mention anything about what I find I tell them that if I were to find any substantial items that we could reach an agreement on one of us buying out the other or splitting the sale of the item. We use our finds to help pay for our detecting equipment so to just hand everything over isnt fare either. I wish you the best. Feel free to find Sod Busters Metal Detecting group on Facebook also.

Great video!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. I have been detecting for about 7 years and I learned some new things from your video today. 1 thing.... loosen the dirt in the plug before putting the plug back. I should have thought of that!! 🤯. I consider my pinpointer a MUST. I have bought several and Garrett’s is far and away the best (in my opinion). Cost a little more but worth it to me! I chase some things around with it for a while sometimes. 😂. I will certainly be sharing!! Good job Larry & Ben!!

So many questions. I just turned 60. Ever since I was a kid I’ve thought about getting in to this but don’t know where to begin. Some questions to begin. What can I expect to pay for a decent detector? Can you tell by the sounds it makes what metal you have likely found? Does it make a different sound depending how deep it is? Is it likely you will have to make an agreement with landowner on whatever you find? What legal responsibilities are involved? I’m sure I’ll think of more but that’s it for now. Sorry for all the questions but as I mentioned this newbie is not getting any younger and it seems that the physical activity would be a plus as well. Thanks for your help and patience.

Outstanding video. I just broke into the hobby, I bought a Fisher f22 metal detector, the Lesche trowel and a Garrett pro pointer. I watched your video and got a better understanding of patients and technique while sweeping. Today was my first trip out to the beach and a local park, I spent two hours and netted a broken key, a lug nut, a Matchbox car, a disposable vape pen, and Massachusetts state quarter that was at ground level hidden by the grass....it was a good day and I'm hooked.
