I really appreciate your Manticore gold prospecting videos! Please keep them coming. BTW, I just recently purchased your book titled "The Nugget Shooters Field Guide:. I have learned a lot from it. I find your your book extremely valuable!
I assume you have owned and used both the gold monster and the 800 with the small coil. Do you feel the Manticore is a leap forward compared to the other two, or just a bit better and the latest gold capable VLF.
I can't say that it is better or not better than the other two. However for me, I like the Manticore better after having owned and ran all three. The reason I like it more, is the target id screen, the small elliptical coil, the 15" coil, seems to be a tad bit lighter, and the ferrus indicators. Im told it won't find gold as tiny and solid as the monster, but I am not after extremely tiny gold all the time as that won't accumulate fast enough to earn a living with a detector. I like the discrimination and the option to hunt cabin areas and underwater. Versatility!
The Gpx6000 is a very capable detector and I love that machine. I have found most of my gold with the 6000. Hunting gold full-time with no consistent passive income coming in is tough. I rely on the gold I find to sell and book sales, training classes and that is it! I have to make do with what I have and constantly come up with new strategies, theories on how to get to detectable gold. All of this knowledge gets passed down to all who buy my books.
@@goldseekeradventures640 ~Thank you for your reply, that is a very good report! I do understand what you’re saying and greatly respect you for your honesty. I am in northern Alberta (in an isolated area fairly far north of Edmonton) amongst glacial till with no bedrock showing around here which might be about 1000’ feet (330 yards) deep down. The closest exposed bedrock that I know of is about a 3 hour drive west of here towards B.C.. But some of the glacial till around here is loaded with very highly mineralized rock. The false bedrock (or hardpan) here is brown and gray clay. I bought a 6000 with all 3 stock coils, the NF Exceed, and CT Goldhawk 9”. I have only went out once so far to look for gold. Now the forest fires have finally settled down and the heavy rain is settled down so I plan to start going out detecting now for the month of August and September. A big worry for me is the danger of grizzly bears around here which are local. Anyway I want to give detecting the glacial till a shot. I know there’s no gold near the (vein) source because the gold is all mixed up from the glaciers but I’m going to give it a try anyway.

@@goldseekeradventures640 Thanks for the reply.
Use the thistle for pain medication. .
You said on a previous video that you sold your 6000, what is the reason that you sold it? Was it because of poor performance?
No I did NOT sell it because of poor performance! I sold it because I needed to pay bills to keep going with hunting gold full-time.

@@goldseekeradventures640 ~I replied to you two different times and both times RUclips deleted my comments for some unknown reason.
You're not using the 5000 or your pinpointer😂
🤣
I see two things you're doing wrong
