I love how you looked in the basket of the TRex when you shook it and heard something in there..lol…I hear that sound in my sleep sometimes and wake up with a smile on my face..haha LOVE the channel
Cheers for the reviews. I just received a RTG 47" Aluminium scoop last week ( similar to you first scoop- except with 2 piece handle for travel) about to try it myself in water tonight with ID 300 ( which I bought after your review!) Cant wait!
Nice review. I dont do sand or beach hunts so all I have is the plastic one. I bought a $3 grain scoop and drilled my own holes just smaller than a dime. Worked fine for the one time I've been to the beach.
A good scoop is important. Break your back, break the bank, just find a scoop that works for your application. Purchase a quality scoop. Good vid scoops are a great tool. Take care HH
The T-Rex looks perfect and given that I'm new to it really want a good scoop, but boy $169 is damn expensive. Lookin to make a home depot PVC DIY version. Oregon coast and their shipwrecks are calling for finding by my new XP Deus but that was expensive enough guess I gotta make my own scoop! LOL... any help or advise is greatly appreciated. Great post Digging... I'm now subscribed, thanks for helping all of us.
Thank you for the review. A shovel that cost 179.00 is not cost effective. The shovel looks awesome and probably helps you get your target easier . But the cost does not make it attractive . I use a 5 dollar regular shovel i dig it up and then i bend over with my pin pointer and identify the target. not as efficient but it works. i guess when i hit gold i can pay for the killer shovel. Please continue your reviews. please don't take this as negative thing.
You make some valid points. However, with a scoop such as the T-Rex (or Stavr etc) you will be digging up more targets each time you go out. For me equates to at least 2x more targets recovered but closer to 3x more on average. I quite often get the target the very first dig. Particularly in water. Two days ago I recovered a very solid men's ring that will pay for my T-rex 3 times over. It was at the end of my day and with a lesser scoop I would not have gotten to it due to time constraints. Just food for thought. They are a great tool for certain jobs and can literally pay for themselves fairly quickly. Happy hunting!
I have been metal detecting for more than 15 years and I only use a plastic hand scoop. I tried using one of those metal scoops with the pole and it was way too heavy.

Plastic scoops are good to put over your detector to see if its in the scoop!!! cant do that with a metal scoop..a little know how you can add a wood handle to it!
The very wide scoops are made for Caribbean type loose sand where your hole in the water fills back up with sand very quickly.. keep diggings and sifting underwater in those water and dont bring scoop up each time its full,
Tough as nails just like my sunspot stealth scoop .only thing I don't like about the rex is the handle tube design is too closed up no drain holes for moisture to escape so when that wood handle starts to rot and snaps which it most likely will eventually ,good luck getting out the "stump".even with a fiberglass or carbon fiber shaft moisture WILL get into that handle tube
He has good info but Jesus man buy some clothes. You have in sure over 2000$ worth equipment you don't have to go buy a Lamborghini just hit Wal-Mart clothes section and great clips.
