After receiving the thunder took it in the yard for trial , noticed a lot of static . Re checked the install , tight connection , my cable first wrap about 10 inchs , reset the ATP . Turned the sens down 2 clicks , running smooth , not getting any deep hits , on one shallow hit , a 1 1/2 washer 4 -5 deep , my impression was front of coil not sensitive . Not much of a trial less then a hour .
Sunday best weather yet 57 degrees , my wife and I went to her family home , built 1950 . Have hunted before , soil is perfect sandy loom easy diggin . My aim was to check coil on deep targets , dug a couple shallow targets and finally got a sketchy 70 dug deep about 10 inchs some sort of iron bar , was not going to dig a huge hole in their lawn . Soon got a 80 's hit about 5 inchs down , dug a scouts badge , now my wife was swinging in std zero. I took the opportunity to try and sway her to use pro zero , dug down to about 8 inches dropped a quarter in the hole , set the ATP to pro zero now listen honey , she swings , nothing . So I put a 5 , 10 , and penny in hole barely a sound . Noticed the sens was down 3 notches , checked hole in Std same resaults . Check on surface and was only hitting at 4-5 inchs . Went home checked with silver Q on surface same 4-5 inches sens 3 notch , with 2 notch 5-6 , about 8 inch wide open , Using pro zero
I always ran my 5/8 Garrett pro zero full sens except certain conditions , in the woods I have hit pennies at 8 inch in woods .
Well if we get another good day I'm going to do take all three coils out away from the house and compare them . I certainly did not get the great resaults I have been hearing about . ,,,,,HH
