    Impressive finds for a spot you've hunted half a hundred times- beautiful crotal bell! I'm sure the finds will get even better as you log more and more hours with the new machine- Contiued success!

    Hey Stef the Manticore is looking pretty good. Very nice Cordal Bell. Love the 1913 1918 Dog Tax Tags. Dog Tag Duog would love those. The Pencil Sharpener is Beautiful. I would say late 1800s early 1900s. I found one not as Beautiful as yours with a Pat. Date. Late 1890s. Very nice find. Take Care Stef

    • @StefDigs
      @StefDigs  Рік тому

      Thank you! I used the 600 for almost 5 years - the Manticore is just next-level, all the way around. I love how much guesswork has been removed when swinging over a target. I was able to skip tons of bird bands yesterday at a hunt because of the trace - I dug a few for ha ha’s, and sure enough, the Manticore was correct.

I 💯%10:45 is an ornate pencil sharpener.

    Well done Stef for exposing the hype and none sense manufacturers publish about the abilities of their machines. So many targets did not match the machines I.d. Basically if it beeps, dig it.

    • @StefDigs
      @StefDigs  Рік тому

      I have to say, now that I’ve been getting used to the Manticore, I’m really understanding what it’s trying to tell me. The target IDs did match what I dug, however I will agree that the target trace was wonky for the bell. I’m sure it’ll make more sense as we all come to understand how the 2D screen works!
