    Do you prefer the long format (this video), or the short 10-15 minute (more edited) versions better?

    • @IlyaScorched
      @IlyaScorched 2 роки тому +18

      Long :D

      10-15 minutes, but I'll watch this one since it's Bryan's paydirt.

    • @f4ttie
      @f4ttie 2 роки тому +8

      I personally prefer the 10-15 minute videos. I usually watch them during breaks from working. A 10-15 minute video is a much more justifiable break than a 45-60 minute video.

    Hey Shane, I can honestly say that I enjoyed the longer video. I actually got to see some of the process that I was missing on the faster videos. I know that some people want you to just jump to the end but for me I love the longer video. Happy hunting and congrats on the home.

    • @chrisnelson6686
      @chrisnelson6686 Рік тому +1

      I agree, the long format allows us to see the nuances of panning. If we want to see it faster we can just skip along. Thanks!

  • @carlmclelland7624
    @carlmclelland7624 2 роки тому +30

    definitely DEFINITELY prefer the long format. This format is far more interesting, and your comments, which would have been cut out in a shorter format were quite informative. There's a time when the short format - a 'quick-n-dirty' panning where the short format would be fine, and one like this... every step of the entire process was worth watching!

  • @cajunchild5727
    @cajunchild5727 2 роки тому +18

    I’m glad you did an extended version. For those of us who have never done it before (live in Louisiana), it is helpful to see exactly how long it takes to separate and pan each classification. It’s also helpful to see how hard you pan into the water and swing the material back.
    Now, with that being said, I wouldn’t want to see EVERY video made like this. But it was nice to see a difficult one. Maybe do one with an easier paydirt and a medium one?
    I lived in Alaska for about 5 years and never went gold panning…wish I would have, but I was too busy fishing lolol

  • @Paul_Gale
    @Paul_Gale 2 роки тому +11

    I prefer the long version imo, especially for the difficult paydirt panning
    for those who don't can always watch at 2x speed ,
    looks like I'm a 42%er, thanks for the entertainment Shane 👍 !

    I have to thank you!! It has been years since I’ve been out gold panning. I started watching your videos and they reminded me of what I am missing. I showed my teen age son your videos and he really wants to go out panning too. In the spring, we are going to start gold panning on weekends together. This will be a great bonding hobby for us!! Thanks again, Dale W.

    Hey Shane, okay here we go.. enjoy the long videos along with the one with the shorter videos, congratulations on the house, the narration is perfect as yoy explain to everyone some the tricks that you would normally be missed on some of the shorter videos and for those less experienced it helps exponentially.

    Aloha Shane. I'm retired. And proud of it. I learned from you and others to use patience. So, I do.
    Surviving on the Island here taught me to go easy. So, I do.
    I have more time than money. And, I ain't in no rush. I've gotten maybe 5 paydirt bags from dealers you've tested and show good 👍 ROI. Mahalo for the heads up on the good dealers. You showed me to deal with the better, more generous ones. I am the customer they need. I am the customer that has more lava than Gold in his/her State. I am an apartment Gold Panner. And proud of it. Thanks for the realization that we all can pan Gold at all income levels. So, I do.
    I enjoy the stories you tell here and there. Good filler for the long version you do.
    Laters.

    Shane, your videos are amazing. When I was in the hospital in early 2020, not from covid, your coin search live streams gave me so much to listen to while resting. Listening to you talk and the sound of the coins hitting the table and being slid into the box was the best white noise. Thank you for them!
    I want as much Klesh content as you can stand making. More long videos would be great. Thanks!

    I’ve come full circle now. This is the first gold panning video I ever watched. I just panned my third, fourth, and fifth bags of Klesh products yesterday, and I am HOOKED! I love it. So relaxing. I needed this in my life right now and I can’t thank Klesh enough for introducing me to it! Klesh Krumbs are awesome little bags by the way! I’ve done the Krums, the beginner bag and the gold strike bag. I’ve yet to be disappointed by a Klesh bag or a GoldNuggetSales bag. Love em both! 💪🤩🤩

    on the very fine concentrates) to get all the gold you can..excellent

    @deanmayer6508 2 роки тому

    I had gotten my bags of paydirt from Golden Paydirt and I got screwed on every bag I ever got. I would leave bad reviews every time but of course they wouldn't post them.
    I might at best get out of any one bag of theirs, 4 or 5 micro pieces of gold. Needless to say I deleted them from my life.
    I've never seen that much gold come out of any bag.
    Thanks so much for this video. You earned my subscription.
    The long version really helped me since I'm no expert at this. I can't get out into the fields to hunt for gold due to having stage 4 cancer. So, I will have to do what I can here at home.
    Thanks again.

    I used to pan in Clear Creek often, but closer to Commerce City. It was always quite funny to see people's reactions as I would pan wherever I could get access to the river legally, lol. I moved back to the western slope of Colorado almost 2 years ago because it is just getting too crowded for me on the front range. To answer your questions: I prefer the longer format. It relaxes me to watch the gold appear as you work it. I also do not mind you talking, but it is not necessary. Sometimes it is good to hear what is pertinent to what you are currently doing.

    That looked like a awesome bag of dirt Dude! I love it when you got to take your time and pan slowly!

    Honestly, I like the variety. Long videos, short videos, metal detecting, paydirt, rivers, and I'd also like to see your guitar videos. Brent, from Cerro Gordo, includes a lot of variety, and for me, it makes the channel really interesting, like yours.
