Welcome to My HomePage
Remember dreaming of pirates and buried treasure as a kid...well I guess I never grew up. Treasure hunting/metal detecting is one of my favorite hobbies. As a kid in junior high and high school I had a cheap detector and would hunt the playgrounds for dropped coins. Only recently, about 25 years later, have I taken up MD'ing again.
My Detectors
I currently use a Minelab Sovereign XS-2A Pro and a Minelab Explorer XS. The Sovereign outfitted with a 15" WOT coil is my main beach machine, while the Explorer with the stock coil or an elipitical Joey coil, is my main turf machine.
