The desert heat is slowing things down a bit, but there is still gold in them thar hills and if one gets out early the desert is more hospitable. I am using the Minelab Gold Monster 1000 this hunt since I am raking a shallow wash for missed pickers.

Love spending time with you so chill and relaxed. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast in the Gold diggin' game. Just got a Goldmaster today and have been playing around with it. No gold yet, never expected any, as I was just digging around some backfill behind a school learning really. Was surprised to find targets 6 or 8 inches deep. The 4 hour drive to gold country has me excited to see the machine and myself in action, haha. Thanks for sharing!

Bill I have watched a number of your videos and have learned a lot from you. I will be moving to Scottsdale Arizona around the middle of June this year 2023 and have been coin hunting since 1986. Looks like the Minelab Monster 1000 will be my go to machine. Thank you for all your instruction and insight to gold nugget hunting. I believe when I will hit the ground running and at a slow pace that is and will be more successful because of you Sir. Maybe some day I can meet up with you, because like you said it the desert can kill you and I believe it will be better to have someone to hunt with. Happy Hunting and here is to finding the BIG GOLD!!! Rob

@NEO-RC 4 года назад

Always great videos! Found my first piece of gold (can’t call it a nugget, tiny) about a month ago due in large part to your videos and particularly the gm1000 videos. It’s a great detector and my first detector but like Mr Southern says, I definitely had to take the time to learn it. I also had a seasoned prospector tell me to check certain dry wash tailings piles on the club claim, so that really helped. The gm1000 does make that whapoo pop sound and it’s distinctive when you hear it, but if you never have, that machine can fool you.

@mikefurness1598 4 года назад

Persistence! Perseverance! Patience! Call it what you will that's what it takes. And yes slow and slower when it comes to that coil. I always tell people in the lessons I do that if you think you're going slow enough go a little slower. You can't go too slow. It's really a case of not how much ground you cover but how well you cover the ground that you go over. Great video Bill as usual!

Even when coin/jewelry/relic hunting...if you don't swing the coil low and slow you can miss the smaller/deeper keepers!

@@NUGGETSHOOTER Thank you! I've watched A LOT of your videos and you obviously know what you are talking about. I trust that opinion lots more than the several other RU-vid vids on the kruzer.
