With the calm wave free water you have over in the west coast i would spend as much time as possible in waist/chest deep water with a mask. I was out this weekend getting pounded by 3 foot waves and found nothing. However when things get calm and the ocean is flat it is very nice to detect. Your chances for jewelry are much higher. For the water have the sens as high as you can with a stable machine. You have to move quite a bit (parallel to the shore) until you find the heavy items. Alternate from waist to chest deep as you move parallel to find the quarters, sinkers..ect then follow the line of heavy items. This works for me, enjoy.
Well, it's not always that calm that's for sure! Hahaha. But I know what you mean. Wow 3 feet!? Yikes! Yea, the ocean is usually like that first thing in the morning over here. Yea, I'll make sure to do that this weekend. Thanks for the tip!
Thank you! Yes it does have the option to hip mount. I didn't get the strap to do it but I think it usually comes standard with a new purchase. The battery should last 10-12 hours of straight hunting. And trust me, if you're not hip mount, you won't make it that long anyways!
Great Video She! There's that awesome Excalibur II. I like it even more each video I watch. It seems to do a good job. Plus it looks cool. Love the colors. And water proof up to 200'!. Be great in the lakes here in CO.! Keep up the good work. GL&HH! 😀
Was amused with the first find being some 'metal' - always good to see a gadget do what it says on the tin! Seeing you work Clearwater with the sounds of the water & gulls reminded me a little of R Adams videos. I loved how Rex left a spiral in the sand as you worked that area! I bet people later on wondered what the story behind that was...Great to see you have your own celebrity & excellent special deal at Gold Diggers. I hope Excalibur soon brings you the finds you deserve :)
Lol! I know, I was like, I'm dumb! Yea, he's got some pretty water over on his side. :) Oh yes, he's great at leaving a nice snail trail. :) Hahaha probably thought aliens hit the beach or something. :D Yea! I was so surprised when they told me. I was like, that's awesome! Thanks! I sure hope so too.
Another cool video!! It is awesome that the Gold Diggers put together that package. If I was in the market I would be all about it. Hope you have a great week. Keep swinging!!!!
I was out water detecting with a friend who has an Excalibur a couple of weeks ago. He likes it but says it is hard to ID coins with it and that because of it's shape its difficult to push (swing) through the water. Perhaps you will have some tips ;) Too bad YOU broke the AT Pro (kidding lol).
Hum, I didn't really find it difficult to swing in the water, on land yes because it's pretty heavy. Lol! I know, that's why I can't have nice things. :(
If your going to hunt for say 3 hours in 4 foot of water you will be tired! If your going to hunt 4-6 hour your going to be sore! Longer than 3 hour hunts you will need a straight shaft.
She Detector Yep it's a awesome deal. You get one of the best metal detectors out there. You get a raptor handle a digger pouch and one of the best scoops out there. For a great price
Well thanks for subscribing! And that's great that you'll get it so quickly! You'll love everything I'm sure. Make sure to go out and buy a handle for the scoop as it doesn't come with one. You can get a nice ash handle from Lowes for like $10. And personally, I wouldn't use the screw that comes in the scoop already. Because the ash is so hard, you're likely to snap the screw head off before the screw gets all the way through the handle (that's what happened to me, lol). If you get everything Friday, you can charge the Excal battery all night and head out first thing Sat morning! WOOHOO!!!!!
You are welcome keep up the great work on the videos. and believe me I plan on being at the beach before the sun is up Saturday. What diameter handle does the Rexx use?
Thanks I sure will! Great, I hope you find something amazing! Well I'm not sure about the diameter but this video shows it pretty close up so you will know exactly what it looks like. ruclips.net/video/SvGidDgoEpE/видео.html Start watching at about 7:00 minutes. And now that I think about it, I think we got the handle from Home Depot. Although I'm sure any hardware store would have it. I think they are actually replacement handles in case you break your shovel or rake handle.
I went metal detecting on Oscota beach,thats Noth East of where I live,on Lake Huron. I found a few quarters,dimes and a mess of pennys right next to the citys splash pad. I havent figured out why they put something designed for inter citys right next to the most beautiful beach ever. the wind was comming out of the East so the lake was making its own splash! Normally the wind doesnt blow from the East Northeast unless its comming out of Canada,then its usually cold. It was a nice comfortable day, found $1.11 dollars,nice! It was an awesome day,found 27 pennys in the same spot.I think it was a penny hunt spot. You buy a couple rolls of coins and throw them in the sand for the kiddys to find. I ued to do that for our company picnic when I worked in a factory. We had a picnic every year so thats a lot of lost coins.
Awesome video.. Ron (Golddiggermetaldetector) is one of the best. He has great equipment and is a wealth of information.. He's also a very good friend.. If you can, make your way to the treasure coast on the east side of Florida. I tried out my new MX Sport at Cape May, NJ beach.. Found a quarter and machine ran very stable, after manual ground balance. It's either all in water or all out to keep MX Sport relatively stable ..Good Luck, enjoy the Excalibur 2. It's a learning curve with tones only and no display but it's one of the best machines for beach and water., Good Luck and Happy Hunting.
Thank you! Yes he's very nice! Yea I'll hunt on that side of Florida one day for sure! Oh that's great! Honestly it was great and easy to keep stable with sens set at 3. Glad you liked it. :) I really enjoyed hunting with it. Yes, I will have a time learning the difference in the tones. But it'll be fun I think.
I sure miss the ocean. Just imagine what could end up on or near the beach! Every hunt would be exciting, you just never know what's out there. Almost felt like I was right there! Good video, thanks for sharing. Take care.
I use the zig zag technic walkin parallel to the water youll find the heavy band in the sand.i think you found the most stuff with the whites detector.Clearwater is one of my favorite beaches there.its been terribly hot here in jersey so all ive been doin is hiding in the ac lol.gl &hh
Yea, I should have searched for that dig line like my last video. :/ Yes I sure did. I need to take the Excal to coin beach! I bet that would be amazing!! Clearwater is nice for sure...so many other hunters though. Hahaha, I hear that!!
It's funny, at your first target there were seagulls or something screaming in perfect synchronisation to your coil sweeps and I wondered what a strange tone that detector makes :)
She Detector, I have an AT Pro and find it makes alot of noise in the water that makes it hard to find stuff--is the Excalibur better in that regard? (it should be for the price !)
I know exactly what you're talking about with the AT Pro. The Excal is much better in that area. There is a constant hum from the machine and when you swing over something that isn't iron, the hum will change. It'll go higher or lower depending on the item. If you swing over iron, it will go completely quiet. That's letting you know it's iron and you shouldn't dig it. I'll put the headphones on the camera on my next hunt so yall can hear it.
another interesting video (still no gold)? i also am looking at a new detector and the Excalibur II is in the 3 i like! how did you find it with no LCD screen? were the tones and depth easy to work out?
Thank you! Sadly no... :( Oh then this is perfect timing for you!! :) It's actually pretty easy hunting without an LCD. You go off of sound with the Excal. Very faint signals means it's really deep. Tones are easy-ish to work out, dig all the sounds, don't dig the quiet. When you try one, you'll know what I mean. ;) Depth is a bit different. Unless it was a super faint signal I couldn't really tell how deep the target was.
A deep coin..say a quarter will give a fainter signal and a slightly different tone than the same quarter that is shallower. a deep quarter will give a shorter bleep and a shallow quarter will be more drags out. Generally the fast beep signal will be deeper. A good depth indicator is lift your coil in the air till the signal disappears. If your are 6 inches above the ground on a coin the coin is most likely near the surface or a few inches under the soil. If you raise the coil and the signal disappears an in above the ground ..then the coin may be 8" deep or so. That's your depth meter! lol
Hi she detector! love your vids keep up the good work, so I've been detecting for a month and i am loving it, i have a old discontinued bounty hunter similar to the bounty hunter 1100, i was interested on getting a garrett ace 400 and was wondering if ron can make another she detector deal withn it? the excalibur is a bit too pricey unless you having a giveaway with it soon then ill wait on the ace 400 lol, thanks she detector!
Hi! Well thank you. I'll sure try. :) Oh awesome, welcome to the hobby! Bounty Hunter had some nice machines. Oh awesome, I've seen good things from the ACE 400. Hum, good question, I'll have to ask. You could try calling them though. Tell them you're a subber of mine and wanted to know if they were planning anything for the ACE 400. Hahaha, I don't foresee a giveaway for the Excal although that would be awesome! Hahaha.
That is a good deal with just the T-rex alone. I 've had my excal for 4 years now, paid $1000 new but has paid for itself few times over. Try the straight carbon fiber rods, makes hunting as lot easier, much better balance, good luck.
Yea, that's an expensive scoop! Hahaha. Oh that's great although not surprising, they are great machines. :) When I finally buy mine, I'll be doing the Anderson shaft for sure. That makes it so much easier to swing the machine. Much more balanced.
I HAVE AN EXCAL 2....I SWITCHED FROM THE STOCK SHAFT TO AN ANDERSON SHAFT OVER UNDER AND NEVER LOOKED BACK....WORTH EVERY PENNY OF THE 120 BUCKS IT COST....NO MORE SWITCHING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT ARM DUE TO ARM FATIGUE....BIG DIFFERENCE
John, spring steel has iron in it, it is a Ferrous metal. all ferrous metal have iron in them . The excel null out most ferrous metals.I may have 43 yrs. in metal detecting ,but I also have 35 yrs. in metals experts!
I know that but the quality of spring steel will still be picked up when the 1 setting for discriminating nails is used. All steel starts out of course as iron.. but the higher quality requires higher discrim settings. I didnt want to go thru all that. Just that bobby pins need dicrim of 3 or 4. Discriminating Nails does not stop you from finding stainless forks and spoons.. think about it. If I'm missing something let me know. I always try to give facts and not guesswork. Thanks
Ron..my 2 Excal 1000's I got in 2002 have been packed away for about 5 years. I just loaned one a week ago to a friend who's up in the UP Mich. hitting some deep inland lakes there. I seem to be wrong about the Bobby pins discrimination.. .. at my age my memory is shot. I would have have bet money that I was right till you said that 1 discrims it out. I know I dug a lot of them and deep but I used to hunt with no discrimination. I dug everything. The only beach we have is polluted and stinks. No one goes there anymore but a few sun worshipers and the metro park made detectors off limits on the beach until closing at the end of summer. Sorry to all if I have been misleading. She... let us know where the bobby pin nulls out on your Excal..at what discrim no. I'm in Mt. Clemens MI Ron where's your home base? Take care and thanks for not letting me carry on with false information! GL/HH ;)
That's ok we all gota get old some day, I'm 67 , not old yet. I live in Zephyrhills , Fla. for the past 14 months. I lived in Naples ,Fl. for the past 65 years.
I'm 62 and feel like 80... 33 years here in Mt. Clemens and grew up in Rochester Mi. .. Your sort of land locked ... you must miss the Gulf after growing up up in such a beautiful area.
Thank you! So far it seems positive. I'd like a few more hunts before making an official stance on it or determine if it's worth the price. I'll let you know though! :) Thanks for watching.
What?! You got your own metal detecting package named after you? Thats cool. I bought mine awhile back from Kellyco. I paid more than that for it. Bummer.
I sure do! And it's just for my viewers, no one else knows about it! :) Oh very cool. I like Kellyco too! Good people for sure. :) But I bet you got lots of free goodies with the purchase yes?
Okay, I feel like a doof. While I watching it, I asked if you think it's worth buying, then I saw what you put at the end of the video, and I do plan on getting it. I hope you get something for it too.
Hahaha, no worries! That's great, you won't regret it. I love my scoop and the handle makes it so much easier to scoop and the pouch holds lots of stuff! I'm still learning the detector but I know it'll be great too!
sea glass is cool and harder and harder to find...I recently did the OBX and found one sinker, a couple of pennies but a nice fulgarite....aka lightning glass...which is rarer then sea glass.
She! its about time you get to try out the Excal II To bad they didn't sent you a straight balanced shaft by Anderson or Plugger I used my first Excal for one day and had to get rid of the stock shaft don't know what Minelab was thinking when they designed it. The straight Balanced carbon fiber shaft changes everything and makes the machine a pleasure to use. Set threshold at a comfortable level set volume as high as you can stand sensitivity at 7 or higher depending on ground minerals. Just below false signals. That will change depending on where you are on the beach wet or dry sand or in the water. Set discrimination at zero. Nickels are good, a lot of gold comes in that low tone range so get used to it. Silver rings and coins will be in that very high tone range get used to it. Mid tones can be anything from Gold, Platinum, Tungsten, Titanium Unfortunately pull tabs and a lot of other crap fall in the mid tones. Get out there and use it and I think you'll find its the best beach machine that you have tried.Another down side to the Excal are the head phones, out here on the west coast with the crashing surf stock headphones don't do well blocking ambient noise not to mention the discomfort. The Peltor headphone conversion upgrade here on Utube is great. I know the machine is a loner and you cant go tearing it apart but if you get one of your own these are things to think about.Enjoy it while you have it and go find some good stuff.I always enjoy your videos so keep them coming, Good luck girl.
You're telling me. I was very excited! :) Yea, that would have been nice, the sucker is heavy! :O Yea, it'll take time to learn the tones but I'm having fun learning them. :) Yea, I can understand what you mean about the outside noise. The band on them starts hurting the top of my head after about an hour or two. :( Yea, I'll be making some changes to mine, once I get it. :) Thanks!
Hello She Detector !!!, : ) Oh Wow !!!! I'm very happy for you !! huh ? : P You are very happy and enjoy for play with your metal detector at Florida Beach. Keep up find some coins !!!! ARrrr !!!
Hey She Detector, looks like that excal fits you pretty good. How did you like using it compared to the Sea Hunter and AT pro. After watching your fork vid. lol I decided to go to the beach this morning and do some detecting. After the usual nails, foil bottle caps and the other trash, I got a faint signal that sounded pretty good. Four t rex scoops into the digging I got that sinking feeling it was a large piece of trash but I kept saying to myself she detector wouldn't stop, keep digging lol after about a good foot, staring me down was the ugliest, crushed up, beat up,mangled bud light beer can I have ever witnessed. I was going to give it the ole fork throw but I just settled for saying the regulation she detector AHH BOO lol
Yea, I think so too. Hahaha. I liked it better than the AT Pro for sure. And it is nice that it tells you when it's an iron target, Sea Hunter doesn't do that. Hahaha! Hopefully it was productive for you? Lol!!! Nice! I was your motivation, haha! LMAO!!! Oh no!!!! Well I'm sorry it wasn't something amazing instead of a can. But way to stick it out to the bitter end. ;D
Maybe Clearwater Beach is a popular spot for metal detectorists and was cleared out before you arrived. Might be that R Adams, he hunts Florida too. I watch his channel too, more scenery.
I hunt there a lot. It's hit really hard everyday by the locals and tourists. Always other detectorists when I go there. All of it is hunted pretty thouroughly but the main area between the pier and rock jetties gets huge crowds everyday and is the best area to detect because of this. A lot of the regulars don't seem to bother going after the coins too much and just concentrate on finding the gold. Always get a lot of foreign and domestic coins everytime I go there. Best find is a sterling necklace in waist deep water with an AT Pro. Found a stainless steel ring and a few earings in the water as well. People wear a lot of gold on that beach and a lot of other detectors I talk to do find it occasionally but not regularly do to the amount of detectorists that regularly hunt there. Too many detector clubs on all our Florida beaches and inland areas as well so the pickings are slim and far between. But I just enjoy the hunt.
Congrats Roger on your finds. I just started recently but only find junk, new coins in parks that are fairly new, 10 - 15 years old. New being 85 and later. Pennies, dimes, quarters. Loads of crushed cans, copper wire, roofing nails, car parts.
Oh it sure is! There's always people hunting there. And yea I wouldn't be surprised. Hahaha yea he finds all the good stuff! :) I hear ya.... "more scenery" ::wink wink::
Which I find to be crazy. I'd be happy with coins! Haha. No way! AT Pro found that? Pretty lucky! :) Yea, to many people for sure. Oh well, I'm like you, I enjoy the hunt.
GOOD DEAL ON THE EX-CAL. KEPT HOPING YOU WOULD HEAD UP TO THE ROW OF MOTELS AND DETECT WHERE THE PEOPLE LAY OUT. LOTS MORE ITEMS TO BE FOUND. THE RING IS COMING. GL/HH. DIGGER DAWG
dear. queen of the watermelons .. aha now you have more experience about minelab excalibur ii so can you telling us which one is better than other . your first garrett sea hunter or minelab excalibur ii ... all in the world happy with every video you are upload it so only we can say thanks for everything you are doing to us ... where is the gold queen .. don't think the garrett at pro not good because with it i found many treasures and with my only two metal detectors I'm already returned my money and more so only you need more time when you dig. .. everyday I'm asking God for giving to you what you want ... God bless you and your all family ... ( IN GOD WE TRUST ) regards
I sure do! Between the Sea Hunter and the Excalibur I would have to say the Excal is better because you know when you are detecting iron. The Excal goes quiet because it's ignoring the iron but the Sea Hunter doesn't so you end up digging the iron. Well thank you! I'm hoping for that gold next! :)
Try the hipmount convertor and the excal works much lighter. Next time use a ctx 3030 and i give you the settings and you wil find golden rings on 12 inch and deeper. Goodluck with the excal.
Yes I need to get something for sure! It'll be a while before I mess with the 3030, if ever. 1) It's pretty insane, a beast of a machine and 2) most people can't afford one. I want to stick with machines "average people", like me, can afford. The Excal is already at the top of what I would spend on a machine, which is why I've not bought one yet. Lol.
Hahahaha! I know what you mean. That's why I've not bought one yet. Need to stop buying clothes for a little bit and save for the Excal. :) Yea, AT Pro comes with a nice price for sure! :)
+She Detector after watching people using both brands and models, including you, I haven't seen much difference in the quality or amount of the find. I've only seen a difference in depth. I'm probably going to stick with the AT Pro, although I hope I don't get the "freaked out" model..lol
webslinger67 The biggest advantage with the Excal is that it's stable at the beach. AND it can go down 200 feet underwater. But if you don't plan on diving or being at the beach, the AT Pro will do you just fine. :D Lol, yes, hopefully you don't get the freaked out model. I hear they work better when they aren't freaking out. Hahaha!
Tony's the expert on the Excal ... get his true feeling on it if you consider buying one! I am very happy for the 2 that I purchased from a friend of mine who owned a detector store in my town in 2002 for $800 each! Retail then was $1,195 just for the detector. They are no different than the new one's if not a little better quality than the new ones. I can't justify the outrageous increase in price other than demand for them BUT for your She Detector Summer Special of $1500 with all the accessories it is a fantastic deal! Getting a used Excalibur 1000 if you can find one on Ebay for 5-$600 is a steal and a half for those that can't afford a new one! The only problem I have with it is that in very highly mineralized beach sand like in Jersey it's no good. Probably would not find a silver quarter 4" deep but that goes for all VLF detectors. For the price range and package accessories for $1500 you can't beat it. I own 2 Excaliburs, my opinion GL and HH ;)
John Harvey Yea, I've heard the 1000'a are way better. I guess they lasted longer than the new ones...? Not sure. I'll still keep looking around. I just worry about getting a used one and having it crap out on me and then it won't be under warranty or anything.
hmmmm! I think the local council should give you an award for clearing the beaches of hazards. At least a mention in dispatches. You haven't flashed your goodies jar for ages girl.
I'd be pretty upset if I spent that much on a detector that didn't pick up a gold earring. I think he ended up getting the coil replaced, for free to the manufacturer's credit.
I know, I have a few relics and jewelry myself. But your videos seem to be about you trying the same thing over and over, if the beaches are that bad perhaps you should try looking for relics instead or at least somewhere else.
labrador7373 Yea, I do try a few different areas every now and then. Even tried Clearwater Beach which is heavily populated. just haven't swing over the goods yet. I'll keep trying though! :)
Wow..I'd love to see your great finds.. could you post them on She Detectors Facebook site? I'd really love to see what you have found! What detector are you and where do you hunt. ;)
Yea, with it being used...or maybe it was refurbished...can't remember. But I think I want a brand new one. It's my dream machine so I don't really want to settle you know?
It is expensive, no doubt. But it's one of those things where you get what you pay for. Plus, you don't have to buy all the other stuff you would need to hunt the beach, because it comes free! Yey!
some days are like that where only trash is in the hole. always fun to get out no matter what's in the hole! thanks for sharing HH!
I hear that! Hahaha. I agree with you there. Plus if you don't out, there's no way you're going to get that gold! Thanks for watching!
With the calm wave free water you have over in the west coast i would spend as much time as possible in waist/chest deep water with a mask. I was out this weekend getting pounded by 3 foot waves and found nothing. However when things get calm and the ocean is flat it is very nice to detect. Your chances for jewelry are much higher. For the water have the sens as high as you can with a stable machine. You have to move quite a bit (parallel to the shore) until you find the heavy items. Alternate from waist to chest deep as you move parallel to find the quarters, sinkers..ect then follow the line of heavy items. This works for me, enjoy.
Well, it's not always that calm that's for sure! Hahaha. But I know what you mean. Wow 3 feet!? Yikes! Yea, the ocean is usually like that first thing in the morning over here. Yea, I'll make sure to do that this weekend. Thanks for the tip!
Nice video could you tell me if the excalibur hip mounts and how long does a charge last ty again very nice info
Thank you! Yes it does have the option to hip mount. I didn't get the strap to do it but I think it usually comes standard with a new purchase. The battery should last 10-12 hours of straight hunting. And trust me, if you're not hip mount, you won't make it that long anyways!
Note: DON'T lose that little 2-piece plug adapter that plugs onto the battery for charging.. A new one costs $75!
John Harvey That I will not! :D
Great Video She! There's that awesome Excalibur II. I like it even more each video I watch. It seems to do a good job. Plus it looks cool. Love the colors. And water proof up to 200'!. Be great in the lakes here in CO.! Keep up the good work. GL&HH! 😀
Thank you! Yes, it's a great machine for sure. I'm hoping it'll help me find the gold! Oh yes, you should get it! :D
Was amused with the first find being some 'metal' - always good to see a gadget do what it says on the tin! Seeing you work Clearwater with the sounds of the water & gulls reminded me a little of R Adams videos. I loved how Rex left a spiral in the sand as you worked that area!

I hope Excalibur soon brings you the finds you deserve :)
Lol! I know, I was like, I'm dumb! Yea, he's got some pretty water over on his side. :) Oh yes, he's great at leaving a nice snail trail. :) Hahaha probably thought aliens hit the beach or something. :D Yea! I was so surprised when they told me. I was like, that's awesome! Thanks! I sure hope so too.
Another cool video!! It is awesome that the Gold Diggers put together that package. If I was in the market I would be all about it. Hope you have a great week. Keep swinging!!!!
Thank you! Yea for sure! Thanks for watching!
If I would spend $1, 500.00 on a detector my wife would divorced me, I'm buying one. Lol
Lol!!!!!
That package is a great deal! I have 2 Excaliburs..you won't regret it!
Fricken awesome.. you must be diving?
***** Ooh wow! Yea that's luck for sure! That's awesome!
EXCAL 2 ON EBAY 800 BUCKS GREAT CONDITION, I GOT ONE THERE
thanks for the inspiration. I watch your videos on my lunch break and the rest of the day all I can think about is dirt fishing. 😉
Well thank you! I'm glad you like my videos. Thanks for watching!
I was out water detecting with a friend who has an Excalibur a couple of weeks ago. He likes it but says it is hard to ID coins with it and that because of it's shape its difficult to push (swing) through the water. Perhaps you will have some tips ;) Too bad YOU broke the AT Pro (kidding lol).
Hum, I didn't really find it difficult to swing in the water, on land yes because it's pretty heavy. Lol! I know, that's why I can't have nice things. :(
If your going to hunt for say 3 hours in 4 foot of water you will be tired! If your going to hunt 4-6 hour your going to be sore! Longer than 3 hour hunts you will need a straight shaft.
Yea, I believe that!
Another great video. It is EXCELLENT for Ron to make the offer to your subscribers! Another .25 for your finds jar, too.
Thank you! Yea, I thought so too! :D Yep!
Great video Misses She Detector. And a great deal that Ron is offering. Take care
Thank you! I agree, it's perfect for someone looking to upgrade and needs new gear also. :)
She Detector Yep it's a awesome deal. You get one of the best metal detectors out there. You get a raptor handle a digger pouch and one of the best scoops out there. For a great price
I subscribed yesterday and bought the She Detector bundle today. Should be at my door Friday I cant wait.
Well thanks for subscribing! And that's great that you'll get it so quickly! You'll love everything I'm sure. Make sure to go out and buy a handle for the scoop as it doesn't come with one. You can get a nice ash handle from Lowes for like $10. And personally, I wouldn't use the screw that comes in the scoop already. Because the ash is so hard, you're likely to snap the screw head off before the screw gets all the way through the handle (that's what happened to me, lol). If you get everything Friday, you can charge the Excal battery all night and head out first thing Sat morning! WOOHOO!!!!!
You are welcome keep up the great work on the videos. and believe me I plan on being at the beach before the sun is up Saturday. What diameter handle does the Rexx use?
Thanks I sure will! Great, I hope you find something amazing! Well I'm not sure about the diameter but this video shows it pretty close up so you will know exactly what it looks like. ruclips.net/video/SvGidDgoEpE/видео.html Start watching at about 7:00 minutes. And now that I think about it, I think we got the handle from Home Depot. Although I'm sure any hardware store would have it. I think they are actually replacement handles in case you break your shovel or rake handle.
Give it at least 12 hours charge the first time.
On You Tube ..look up Tony Eisenhower's videos..ask him..he'll know and so will the detector store doing the She Detector special.
hey, thanks for another vid, love the deal on the excal, keep digging! can't wait for the next video.
Thanks for watching it. :) Yea, it's a great deal for sure! :)
Thanks for watching it. :) Yea, it's a great deal for sure! :)
I went metal detecting on Oscota beach,thats Noth East of where I live,on Lake Huron. I found a few quarters,dimes and a mess of pennys right next to the citys splash pad. I havent figured out why they put something designed for inter citys right next to the most beautiful beach ever. the wind was comming out of the East so the lake was making its own splash! Normally the wind doesnt blow from the East Northeast unless its comming out of Canada,then its usually cold. It was a nice comfortable day, found $1.11 dollars,nice! It was an awesome day,found 27 pennys in the same spot.I think it was a penny hunt spot. You buy a couple rolls of coins and throw them in the sand for the kiddys to find. I ued to do that for our company picnic when I worked in a factory. We had a picnic every year so thats a lot of lost coins.
Oh wow, sounds like an interesting hunt! Hahaha that sounds like a cruel joke for the kids! Lol!
Awesome video.. Ron (Golddiggermetaldetector) is one of the best. He has great equipment and is a wealth of information.. He's also a very good friend.. If you can, make your way to the treasure coast on the east side of Florida. I tried out my new MX Sport at Cape May, NJ beach.. Found a quarter and machine ran very stable, after manual ground balance. It's either all in water or all out to keep MX Sport relatively stable ..Good Luck, enjoy the Excalibur 2. It's a learning curve with tones only and no display but it's one of the best machines for beach and water., Good Luck and Happy Hunting.
Thank you! Yes he's very nice! Yea I'll hunt on that side of Florida one day for sure! Oh that's great! Honestly it was great and easy to keep stable with sens set at 3. Glad you liked it. :) I really enjoyed hunting with it. Yes, I will have a time learning the difference in the tones. But it'll be fun I think.
I sure miss the ocean. Just imagine what could end up on or near the beach! Every hunt would be exciting, you just never know what's out there. Almost felt like I was right there! Good video, thanks for sharing. Take care.
Oh yes, you never know what will get washed up. :) Thanks for watching!
I use the zig zag technic walkin parallel to the water youll find the heavy band in the sand.i think you found the most stuff with the whites detector.Clearwater is one of my favorite beaches there.its been terribly hot here in jersey so all ive been doin is hiding in the ac lol.gl &hh
Yea, I should have searched for that dig line like my last video. :/ Yes I sure did. I need to take the Excal to coin beach! I bet that would be amazing!! Clearwater is nice for sure...so many other hunters though. Hahaha, I hear that!!
It's funny, at your first target there were seagulls or something screaming in perfect synchronisation to your coil sweeps and I wondered what a strange tone that detector makes :)
Lol! Oh my gosh, I didn't even catch that during editing. Hahahaha, that's to funny!
She Detector, I have an AT Pro and find it makes alot of noise in the water that makes it hard to find stuff--is the Excalibur better in that regard? (it should be for the price !)
I know exactly what you're talking about with the AT Pro. The Excal is much better in that area. There is a constant hum from the machine and when you swing over something that isn't iron, the hum will change. It'll go higher or lower depending on the item. If you swing over iron, it will go completely quiet. That's letting you know it's iron and you shouldn't dig it. I'll put the headphones on the camera on my next hunt so yall can hear it.
another interesting video (still no gold)? i also am looking at a new detector and the Excalibur II is in the 3 i like! how did you find it with no LCD screen? were the tones and depth easy to work out?
Thank you! Sadly no... :( Oh then this is perfect timing for you!! :) It's actually pretty easy hunting without an LCD. You go off of sound with the Excal. Very faint signals means it's really deep. Tones are easy-ish to work out, dig all the sounds, don't dig the quiet. When you try one, you'll know what I mean. ;) Depth is a bit different. Unless it was a super faint signal I couldn't really tell how deep the target was.
A deep coin..say a quarter will give a fainter signal and a slightly different tone than the same quarter that is shallower. a deep quarter will give a shorter bleep and a shallow quarter will be more drags out. Generally the fast beep signal will be deeper. A good depth indicator is lift your coil in the air till the signal disappears. If your are 6 inches above the ground on a coin the coin is most likely near the surface or a few inches under the soil. If you raise the coil and the signal disappears an in above the ground ..then the coin may be 8" deep or so. That's your depth meter! lol
Great hunt. Nice machine and a good deal that Ron is offering.
Thank you! Yea, it's great if you've been thinking about getting the Excal. Perfect package!
your packing the right equipment now!!! those garrets atpros are good machines!! just not for saltwater hunting!! GL&HH!!
For sure! I agree, it wasn't that great out there at all. It's only a matter of time before I find that ring. :)
Another good video. The Excalibur looks a little front heavy, to me. Thanks for sharing. GL&HH
Thank you! Oh it's very heavy! I had to switch arms during the hunt and took a break also! My arm still hurts today! :/
Great deal on the Excalibur and we enjoy all your videos!!!
Thank you! And thanks for watching. :)
Congratulations! Now you're search for with the best device for an underwater search of the world!
Thank you! Yes! Now I can head underwater and try my luck! Hopefully I find the buried treasures! :D
All in your hands! Good luck digging!
Hi she detector! love your vids keep up the good work, so I've been detecting for a month and i am loving it, i have a old discontinued bounty hunter similar to the bounty hunter 1100, i was interested on getting a garrett ace 400 and was wondering if ron can make another she detector deal withn it? the excalibur is a bit too pricey unless you having a giveaway with it soon then ill wait on the ace 400 lol, thanks she detector!
Hi! Well thank you. I'll sure try. :) Oh awesome, welcome to the hobby! Bounty Hunter had some nice machines. Oh awesome, I've seen good things from the ACE 400. Hum, good question, I'll have to ask. You could try calling them though. Tell them you're a subber of mine and wanted to know if they were planning anything for the ACE 400. Hahaha, I don't foresee a giveaway for the Excal although that would be awesome! Hahaha.
That is a good deal with just the T-rex alone. I 've had my excal for 4 years now, paid $1000 new but has paid for itself few times over. Try the straight carbon fiber rods, makes hunting as lot easier, much better balance, good luck.
Yea, that's an expensive scoop! Hahaha. Oh that's great although not surprising, they are great machines. :) When I finally buy mine, I'll be doing the Anderson shaft for sure. That makes it so much easier to swing the machine. Much more balanced.
Nice beach to hunt. I like it. Too bad is hunted out. Clean. Great deal for excal. Thanks for making it happen.
Yea, it was nice out. Yea, I was really hoping this was the weekend for finding that ring! Nope... :( Thanks for watching!
+She Detector I was digging for 3 years and then I got gold ring... land hunts ... 3 years ... 50+ hunts per year.
sdesic Oh wow! Well at least it's not just me! Hahaha.
+She Detector And that year I started beach hunting and got 12 😄 so you have more opportunity
sdesic Oh very nice! Yea, more chances of finding rings at the beach.
Goodluck on your next hunt , I love my Excal.
Thank you! Yes, it's great for sure. :)
Good show as always She!
Thank you!
I HAVE AN EXCAL 2....I SWITCHED FROM THE STOCK SHAFT TO AN ANDERSON SHAFT OVER UNDER AND NEVER LOOKED BACK....WORTH EVERY PENNY OF THE 120 BUCKS IT COST....NO MORE SWITCHING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT ARM DUE TO ARM FATIGUE....BIG DIFFERENCE
WOW THATS A GREAT DEAL ....thanks
It really is! Check it out if you've though of getting that machine. :)
John, spring steel has iron in it, it is a Ferrous metal. all ferrous metal have iron in them . The excel null out most ferrous metals.I may have 43 yrs. in metal detecting ,but I also have 35 yrs. in metals experts!
I know that but the quality of spring steel will still be picked up when the 1 setting for discriminating nails is used. All steel starts out of course as iron.. but the higher quality requires higher discrim settings. I didnt want to go thru all that. Just that bobby pins need dicrim of 3 or 4. Discriminating Nails does not stop you from finding stainless forks and spoons.. think about it. If I'm missing something let me know. I always try to give facts and not guesswork. Thanks
Ron..my 2 Excal 1000's I got in 2002 have been packed away for about 5 years. I just loaned one a week ago to a friend who's up in the UP Mich. hitting some deep inland lakes there. I seem to be wrong about the Bobby pins discrimination.. .. at my age my memory is shot. I would have have bet money that I was right till you said that 1 discrims it out. I know I dug a lot of them and deep but I used to hunt with no discrimination. I dug everything. The only beach we have is polluted and stinks. No one goes there anymore but a few sun worshipers and the metro park made detectors off limits on the beach until closing at the end of summer. Sorry to all if I have been misleading. She... let us know where the bobby pin nulls out on your Excal..at what discrim no. I'm in Mt. Clemens MI Ron where's your home base? Take care and thanks for not letting me carry on with false information! GL/HH ;)
That's ok we all gota get old some day, I'm 67 , not old yet. I live in Zephyrhills , Fla. for the past 14 months. I lived in Naples ,Fl. for the past 65 years.
I'm 62 and feel like 80... 33 years here in Mt. Clemens and grew up in Rochester Mi. .. Your sort of land locked ... you must miss the Gulf after growing up up in such a beautiful area.
I go to clear water beach 3 times a week,and I love Zephyrhills it's much quitter than Naples Fl
I love your videos. Do you like the Excalibur? Do you think it's worth buying? Keep up the great vids!
Thank you! So far it seems positive. I'd like a few more hunts before making an official stance on it or determine if it's worth the price. I'll let you know though! :) Thanks for watching.
Is the entire detector waterproof? 100%? Even the headphones.
Ron from Gold Digger is a great guy. Buy all my detecting needs from him.
Yes he is very nice and I'm glad I got the chance to meet him earlier this year. :)
Wow!!! I wish I would have seen this before I ordered from Kellyco just a few weeks ago. This is such a sweet deal and I so would have purchased this.
What?! You got your own metal detecting package named after you? Thats cool. I bought mine awhile back from Kellyco. I paid more than that for it. Bummer.
I sure do! And it's just for my viewers, no one else knows about it! :) Oh very cool. I like Kellyco too! Good people for sure. :) But I bet you got lots of free goodies with the purchase yes?
Great video that's a great deal keep up the great videos
Thank you! Yea it really is! Thanks for watching. :)
Okay, I feel like a doof. While I watching it, I asked if you think it's worth buying, then I saw what you put at the end of the video, and I do plan on getting it. I hope you get something for it too.
Hahaha, no worries! That's great, you won't regret it. I love my scoop and the handle makes it so much easier to scoop and the pouch holds lots of stuff! I'm still learning the detector but I know it'll be great too!
sea glass is cool and harder and harder to find...I recently did the OBX and found one sinker, a couple of pennies but a nice fulgarite....aka lightning glass...which is rarer then sea glass.
I'm must be lucky. Still heaps of sea glass in my location. But yes majority of places have nothing
Yea, I'm not surprised. People were everywhere looking for seas and probably sea glass as well. :) Wow lighting glass!? That's pretty awesome!
all that light stuff washes up on the beach..heavy rings in the water are goona stay in the water! ;)
That's very true. This beach seemed pretty empty in the water though. Even Dave didn't find a whole lot out in the water, strange really....
That ring was hiding from him and waiting for you! ;)
you might want to look at a scoop hook, it takes dragging it around better.....they are like $45 I think on the bay...made by buzz wilson.
Oh really? I'll check them out. I usually just drag it around using the raptor handle. Hahaha.
She! its about time you get to try out the Excal II To bad they didn't sent you a straight balanced shaft by Anderson or Plugger I used my first Excal for one day and had to get rid of the stock shaft don't know what Minelab was thinking when they designed it. The straight Balanced carbon fiber shaft changes everything and makes the machine a pleasure to use. Set threshold at a comfortable level set volume as high as you can stand sensitivity at 7 or higher depending on ground minerals. Just below false signals. That will change depending on where you are on the beach wet or dry sand or in the water. Set discrimination at zero. Nickels are good, a lot of gold comes in that low tone range so get used to it. Silver rings and coins will be in that very high tone range get used to it. Mid tones can be anything from Gold, Platinum, Tungsten, Titanium Unfortunately pull tabs and a lot of other crap fall in the mid tones. Get out there and use it and I think you'll find its the best beach machine that you have tried.Another down side to the Excal are the head phones, out here on the west coast with the crashing surf stock headphones don't do well blocking ambient noise not to mention the discomfort. The Peltor headphone conversion upgrade here on Utube is great. I know the machine is a loner and you cant go tearing it apart but if you get one of your own these are things to think about.Enjoy it while you have it and go find some good stuff.I always enjoy your videos so keep them coming, Good luck girl.
You're telling me. I was very excited! :) Yea, that would have been nice, the sucker is heavy! :O Yea, it'll take time to learn the tones but I'm having fun learning them. :) Yea, I can understand what you mean about the outside noise. The band on them starts hurting the top of my head after about an hour or two. :( Yea, I'll be making some changes to mine, once I get it. :) Thanks!
Hello She Detector !!!, : ) Oh Wow !!!! I'm very happy for you !! huh ? : P You are very happy and enjoy for play with your metal detector at Florida Beach. Keep up find some coins !!!! ARrrr !!!
Hi!! Thank you! I'm excited to finally play with the Excal!! :D
Hey She Detector, looks like that excal fits you pretty good. How did you like using it compared to the Sea Hunter and AT pro. After watching your fork vid. lol I decided to go to the beach this morning and do some detecting. After the usual nails, foil bottle caps and the other trash, I got a faint signal that sounded pretty good. Four t rex scoops into the digging I got that sinking feeling it was a large piece of trash but I kept saying to myself she detector wouldn't stop, keep digging lol after about a good foot, staring me down was the ugliest, crushed up, beat up,mangled bud light beer can I have ever witnessed. I was going to give it the ole fork throw but I just settled for saying the regulation she detector AHH BOO lol
Yea, I think so too. Hahaha. I liked it better than the AT Pro for sure. And it is nice that it tells you when it's an iron target, Sea Hunter doesn't do that. Hahaha! Hopefully it was productive for you? Lol!!! Nice! I was your motivation, haha! LMAO!!! Oh no!!!! Well I'm sorry it wasn't something amazing instead of a can. But way to stick it out to the bitter end. ;D
good job do you have good machine.....
Thank you!! And thanks for watching!
I BOUGHT THE EXCALIBUR 2 IN GREAT CONDITION ON EBAY FOR 832 BUKS....CAME WITH ITS MINELAB CASE, A ITEM POUCH...SO MY DEAL WAS WAY BETTER
Maybe Clearwater Beach is a popular spot for metal detectorists and was cleared out before you arrived. Might be that R Adams, he hunts Florida too. I watch his channel too, more scenery.
I hunt there a lot. It's hit really hard everyday by the locals and tourists. Always other detectorists when I go there. All of it is hunted pretty thouroughly but the main area between the pier and rock jetties gets huge crowds everyday and is the best area to detect because of this. A lot of the regulars don't seem to bother going after the coins too much and just concentrate on finding the gold. Always get a lot of foreign and domestic coins everytime I go there. Best find is a sterling necklace in waist deep water with an AT Pro. Found a stainless steel ring and a few earings in the water as well. People wear a lot of gold on that beach and a lot of other detectors I talk to do find it occasionally but not regularly do to the amount of detectorists that regularly hunt there. Too many detector clubs on all our Florida beaches and inland areas as well so the pickings are slim and far between. But I just enjoy the hunt.
Congrats Roger on your finds. I just started recently but only find junk, new coins in parks that are fairly new, 10 - 15 years old. New being 85 and later. Pennies, dimes, quarters. Loads of crushed cans, copper wire, roofing nails, car parts.
Oh it sure is! There's always people hunting there. And yea I wouldn't be surprised. Hahaha yea he finds all the good stuff! :) I hear ya.... "more scenery" ::wink wink::
Which I find to be crazy. I'd be happy with coins! Haha. No way! AT Pro found that? Pretty lucky! :) Yea, to many people for sure. Oh well, I'm like you, I enjoy the hunt.
GOOD DEAL ON THE EX-CAL. KEPT HOPING YOU WOULD HEAD UP TO THE ROW OF MOTELS AND DETECT WHERE THE PEOPLE LAY OUT. LOTS MORE ITEMS TO BE FOUND. THE RING IS COMING. GL/HH. DIGGER DAWG
For sure! Yea, I should have. Another hunter stayed in the dry sand and found several coins. It's in my future for sure! :)
dear. queen of the watermelons .. aha now you have more experience about minelab excalibur ii so can you telling us which one is better than other . your first garrett sea hunter or minelab excalibur ii ... all in the world happy with every video you are upload it so only we can say thanks for everything you are doing to us ... where is the gold queen .. don't think the garrett at pro not good because with it i found many treasures and with my only two metal detectors I'm already returned my money and more so only you need more time when you dig. .. everyday I'm asking God for giving to you what you want ... God bless you and your all family ... ( IN GOD WE TRUST ) regards
I sure do! Between the Sea Hunter and the Excalibur I would have to say the Excal is better because you know when you are detecting iron. The Excal goes quiet because it's ignoring the iron but the Sea Hunter doesn't so you end up digging the iron. Well thank you! I'm hoping for that gold next! :)
great detecting
Thank you!
Try the hipmount convertor and the excal works much lighter.
Next time use a ctx 3030 and i give you the settings and you wil find golden rings on 12 inch and deeper.
Goodluck with the excal.
Yes I need to get something for sure! It'll be a while before I mess with the 3030, if ever. 1) It's pretty insane, a beast of a machine and 2) most people can't afford one. I want to stick with machines "average people", like me, can afford. The Excal is already at the top of what I would spend on a machine, which is why I've not bought one yet. Lol.
NAH, EMF NEXT TO THE BODY IS NOT HEALTHY..SO NO HARNESS
I think I just choked on my beer. $1500? I think my budget is more in the AT Pro area I guess
Hahahaha! I know what you mean. That's why I've not bought one yet. Need to stop buying clothes for a little bit and save for the Excal. :) Yea, AT Pro comes with a nice price for sure! :)
Depends on how much you want to find..the Excal will pay for itsself far faster than the AT.
John Harvey Yea that's true. Lots of people have said that also.
+She Detector after watching people using both brands and models, including you, I haven't seen much difference in the quality or amount of the find. I've only seen a difference in depth. I'm probably going to stick with the AT Pro, although I hope I don't get the "freaked out" model..lol
webslinger67 The biggest advantage with the Excal is that it's stable at the beach. AND it can go down 200 feet underwater. But if you don't plan on diving or being at the beach, the AT Pro will do you just fine. :D Lol, yes, hopefully you don't get the freaked out model. I hear they work better when they aren't freaking out. Hahaha!
Hay She Detector maybe if you decide to buy the Excal , the guys at Gold Diggers will make up a special purchase package of goodies just for you
Awesome!
Hahaha, yea that would be cool! You never know!
Tony's the expert on the Excal ... get his true feeling on it if you consider buying one! I am very happy for the 2 that I purchased from a friend of mine who owned a detector store in my town in 2002 for $800 each! Retail then was $1,195 just for the detector. They are no different than the new one's if not a little better quality than the new ones. I can't justify the outrageous increase in price other than demand for them BUT for your She Detector Summer Special of $1500 with all the accessories it is a fantastic deal! Getting a used Excalibur 1000 if you can find one on Ebay for 5-$600 is a steal and a half for those that can't afford a new one! The only problem I have with it is that in very highly mineralized beach sand like in Jersey it's no good. Probably would not find a silver quarter 4" deep but that goes for all VLF detectors. For the price range and package accessories for $1500 you can't beat it. I own 2 Excaliburs, my opinion GL and HH ;)
Better than $1500 for the She? Sounds tempting doesn't it! But wait till you find your first ring! lol
John Harvey Yea, I've heard the 1000'a are way better. I guess they lasted longer than the new ones...? Not sure. I'll still keep looking around. I just worry about getting a used one and having it crap out on me and then it won't be under warranty or anything.
Nice tan...
Thank you!
hmmmm! I think the local council should give you an award for clearing the beaches of hazards. At least a mention in dispatches. You haven't flashed your goodies jar for ages girl.
Hahahaha, they really should! :) Yea, I need to bring it out next time. Hopefully I'll have more coins to add in it. :)
yes it would give the talking hands something to point to. I'm hanging in awaiting your BIG pay day. My dear young lady.
hard yakka Hahaha, that's true! I'm hoping it comes soon! Maybe this weekend? :D
AT Pro goes right over earring, no tone. Check out Jimmy Maya video Live River Action
ruclips.net/video/ivE2sxGsLto/видео.html
Nice video. Yea that's crazy how it didn't pick up that earring. Maybe because it was so small?
I'd be pretty upset if I spent that much on a detector that didn't pick up a gold earring. I think he ended up getting the coil replaced, for free to the manufacturer's credit.
J. Hunto's Garage Yea that's true. Oh that's good. Wonder what all he missed though. :/
Why don't you detect somewhere with actual valuable things on the ground?
Lol! Much easier said than done my friend. :)
I know, I have a few relics and jewelry myself. But your videos seem to be about you trying the same thing over and over, if the beaches are that bad perhaps you should try looking for relics instead or at least somewhere else.
labrador7373 Yea, I do try a few different areas every now and then. Even tried Clearwater Beach which is heavily populated. just haven't swing over the goods yet. I'll keep trying though! :)
Wow..I'd love to see your great finds.. could you post them on She Detectors Facebook site? I'd really love to see what you have found! What detector are you and where do you hunt. ;)
A simple garrett but I also use my own homemade PI with excellent results
thats my next machine... good deal nen.. goodluck with the dig...
thank you for marrying me...? lol
Oh you won't regret it. It love mine so far. :D Hahahahaha! You're silly! :D
+She Detector one day! 😊
May I say your beaches are kinda barren. Ill invite you to Huntington beach California. youll go home with a bucket of change.
Yea they can be. For me at least. Lol! Oh wonderful. Well, if I've ever in Cali, I'll definitely let you know! :)
bet he will give you a good deal for that one
Yea, with it being used...or maybe it was refurbished...can't remember. But I think I want a brand new one. It's my dream machine so I don't really want to settle you know?
know what you saying, i felt the same way mine is packed and ready to go to thailand
craig vietor Oh nice!
Wish I had 1499 kicking around :$
Hahaha, don't we all!? :)
800 BUCKS ON EBAY FOR EXCAL 2 USED
you cheated us today princess,, we didnt get to see your toes,,lol
Hahahaha! I know! I'm sorry. :)
Where gold? Good luck
Haven't found the gold yet but hopefully soon! Thank you!
Lol! Good advice! I'll give that a try. Hahahahaha!
You should clarify it's because I'm short, not old! Lol!
Short, sharp, perky and a spring flower!!! ;)~
too rich for my blood
It is expensive, no doubt. But it's one of those things where you get what you pay for. Plus, you don't have to buy all the other stuff you would need to hunt the beach, because it comes free! Yey!
Here is a good used one David if your interested. The summer package is an awesome deal though!
