NOTE: My thoughts on the Apex are just my opinion based on my experience at the time of use. Every person will have a different experience based on their level of use and type of ground. I give the Apex an "A" for a beginner to intermediate detector.
The Garrett APEX looks like a major improvement over the ATPro, support told me the only way to keep the chatter down was to lower the sensitivity but that sacrifices depth. When Whites went out of business Garrett took them over and suddenly went digital, my guess is most of the technology in the Apex is from Whites. The whites company required distributors to have a brick-and-mortar store which led to their demise during covid.
They have an update for the Apex and when I updated the chatter stopped but its not waterproof like the AT Pro. I wish Garrett would do what the did with the Apex to the AT Pro. I only use the Pro to water hunt. My land detector is the Equinox 800 which I could water hint with but don't. I love the Pro's simplicity in the water because that's all you need because targets are just under the surface. Thanks for watching 👀
So I recently detected a property that has history to 1788. I used my Ace 250. Didn’t find a whole lot but it had been detected about 15 years ago. Would it be worthwhile to revisit with the Apex?
@@PreacherDigger oh great, just opened the box and the coil is a 8.5 x 11 Raider and not the 6x11 Viper coil as pictured in the ad. Should I return or is the raider coil as good as the Viper?
That is a great permission (old circus grounds)! Nice Crotal Bell! Nice amount of silvers you got with the Apex! Did you try using the Frequency Shift to help eliminate the chatter?
Thanks. Yes nothing took the chatter out. I am used to the Equinox 800 and on MF it runs silent, but the Apex worked fine but just too much chatter for me.
@@PreacherDigger were you using the new update 1.28.1 before this video? A whole different monster with the new update lol zero chatter in multi-freq. I took it into iron infested parks and no chatter what so ever do another review with the new update!!
@@PreacherDigger yeah I thought the machine was broken, I was so used to garrets being super chattery. I took it out to an iron infested park again and super quiet until it gets a solid signal even with iron audio turned on. Found some good coins today and a silver pendant. Waiting on the nel tornado to arrive for even better performance.
Nice hunt. I dont know where you are, but I do know where ya ain't. The leaves of the trees behind you are changing, and ya look cold...so ya ain't in florida.

Ok... Thanks
What is a Crotal bell?
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crotal_bell
Ive heard it doesn't chatter in salt water in MF
They have an update you can go online and get and it takes out that chatter. Once I updated it I haven't had issues with it
Did you try running the Apex on a different channel to reduce chatter?
I did and had to switch back to single frequency. I did download the update and after it ran quiet but I've since sold it.
@@PreacherDigger
Thank you for replying.
How's the charging port holding up after 2 years ?
I'm not sure I sold it about 6 months ago.
Very nice and well done there, thanks for sharing too :) ATB

Thanks for watching

I would always revisit. A yard is never hunted out. Who knows what might still be waiting on you to find
@@PreacherDigger ok I will, also just subscribed to your channel. Once I learn to use the new Apex I’ll let ya know what I find!
@@PreacherDigger oh great, just opened the box and the coil is a 8.5 x 11 Raider and not the 6x11 Viper coil as pictured in the ad. Should I return or is the raider coil as good as the Viper?
I'm not sure. Never used the Raider. I have the Viper on my AT Pro
Bem esclarecido,.
Nokta Makro THE LEGEND WHP ,será que pode dar a sua opinião!?
Obrigado
I dont know much about it but my friend who has one loves his and he's had the best of all detectors. It's a good detector.
@@PreacherDigger ok ,obrigado. Espero que tenha bons alvos !!
Congrats on your first crotal bell . nice demonstration of the Apex and you scored some silver 💥👍🏴☠️🤠
Thank you
What you think about the equinox 600? I use a simplex right now.
from what I have seen you will like the 600 better than the simplex I have the Equinox 800 , an E-trac Minelab, and Whites XLT.
600 is just like the 800 minus the gold program and one less frequency. Other than that it is good like the 800
I couldnt tell you which is better. I've only used the 800 but I love the 800.
@@PreacherDigger appreciate the info. And I loved the video with you and plug master ford and the snake intro
@@shawncaldwell593 I get him back in my video coming out in a few weeks
Great dig, congrats on your first bell! We appreciate your honesty on the review. Good luck on the next!
Thank you and thanks for your comments.

Thanks man, i finally got Deus XP instead of Apex. 🤝
You made the better choice. Happy hunting

That was a good workout for that machine Preacher. Congratulations on so much silver!
Thank you.
Thank you.

I was up in central Wisconsin where the weather was 49-50 each day and the trees were turning.
