Free Metal Detecting Tips

Sweep Techniques Using the Minelab Sovereign
Author: Internet Tip
Every time I see a post by a former Minelab user stating they didn't get more than 4 or 5 inches in depth, I try to figure out how this can happen. The only things I can come up with are, the sweep speed, and sweep of the coil itself. I believe first of all the rod length is the most important. Some manuals tell you to make the rod length so that your arm will hang straight down without bending your elbow, while this is definitely more comfortable, I thinks its a major mistake. If your arm is hanging straight down with the coil level in front of you there is no way to make that coil be level with the ground in a complete arc, unless your sweep is contained to a few feet directly in front of your toes. It is imperative that the coil on the Sovereign (or any detector) remains at a constant 90-degree angle to the ground while remaining as close to the ground as possible. If you think about it, having the arm hanging straight in front of you will tend to make you swing the coil in an arc back and forth, making your only full depth capability's directly in front of you. The Sov hates that point where the coil is lifted from the ground and often false signals any time the coil is lifted from the ground. If you adjust the length so the coil is flat to the ground about 1-2 feet in front of you, this will allow a better swing arc, while keeping the coil flat as you bring it closer to you on each side. Any one who uses a Sov is aware of the slow sweep required for the Sov to achieve maximum depth, but perhaps that's the reason for them not getting the depth. Some can just not swing slow, or cannot adjust to it. I know I get impatient and want to cover more ground, I just have to force myself to slow down. The one thing you should do if you are swinging faster than you should be is to at least take the time to investigate any threshold nulls while doing it. The sov will null on a good target if the sweep speed is to fast. So if you at least slow down around those nulls, you may be able to get the sov to respond to the target. This also will enable you to pick up some good targets near trash. This is the reason I like to keep the sensitivity down far enough to always have a threshold sound. I know others turn it up as high as they can with out falsing, but I like to keep it at the point where the threshold is still there at most times. I know if your in a really iron infested area that this is almost impossible, but in most cases 12 o'clock on the sensitivity will still give you a pretty steady threshold sound. Keep the threshold at a point where it is just barely audible, and investigate any changes either higher or lower, with a very very slow sweep and wiggle it quickly over any of the response zones. I hope you guys not getting the depth can understand what I am trying to say. But for the ones I see posting you have already given up.

I'll never forget the first time I swung a metal detector and it BEEPED! I dug up my treasure and I held that shiny circle of metal in my hand--a quarter!! Wow! A whole twenty-five cents! Since then I have treasured hunted all over the world. This site has info on montana metal detecting and hopefully anything else you need to know about metal detecting, treasure hunting, and finding gold!

Good luck!

What is Dowsing?
Author: Sam Stevens
Dowsing is definitely an intuitive art and one of the oldest forms of divination in the world. Perhaps the oldest and most familiar image we have a dowser is what is called a field or map dowser. This person walks over a landscape using a Y shaped or forked stick (sometimes called a doodlebug) to locate subterranean sources of water, oil or even precious minerals. The stick vibrates, crosses or shakes when the substance is found. Some dowsers will use two sticks held in one hand, and when the sticks cross, it signifies that a subtle astral or geopathic force has located the natural resource. This kind of dowsing is also used to locate things such as buried treasure, lost persons, missing jewelry and stray golf balls!
However, the kind of dowsing we are concerned with in this article would be for the purposes of divination. To do this you need to purchase or make what is called a “bobber” or a “pendulum”. This is simply a pointed object made of metal, crystal or wood that is attached to the end of a string or a rope. Crystals make excellent pendulums. To diagnose disease, use a rose quartz crystal. For general divination, a silver, lapis, wood or hematite pendulum works well. A pendulum can be anything that appeals to you, that is personal, feels like it conducts energy and can be hung from a chain or string. For instance, I have a little silver acorn charm that works perfectly as a pendulum. Some people use keys or talismans or charms such as a crucifix or ankh. Pendulums can be bought commercially online and in New Age or Occult Stores.
There are no strict rules around the practice of dowsing, however there are two methodologies behind the purpose of it.
The first methodology involves using the pendulum to answer a yes or no question. Some practitioners use a chart or a map, usually a square of paper with a circle drawn on it with the words YES or NO written at the four quarter points of the circle.
Sometimes, a direct answer can be written on the four points of the paper as well. For instance if the question is “Who does Bob love?” then you may have different options such as “Me”, “His Wife”, “His Child” or “Nobody” written on the four quarter points of the circle. The dowser holds the pendulum over the center of the circle concentrates and sees which answer the pendulum naturally sways towards.
There is also another direct method of getting a yes or no answer. Hold the pendulum straight between thumb and forefinger. Ask the question. If it sways to the right, the answer is YES. If it sways to the left, the answer is NO. If it goes in a clockwise circle, the answer is YES: a counterclockwise circle – NO.
Healers, to scan a body for disease, also use pendulums. The spinning in a counterclockwise circle is said to be an astral message that something is wrong with that part of a body. Also if the pendulum is just very active it can indicate an energy disturbance in a chakra or an imbalance of some kind. There is an old wives' tale too, that if a pendulum is held over the belly of a pregnant woman, it is a boy if it swings to the right or clockwise and a girl if it swings to the left or counterclockwise.
Before you start dowsing, you might want to say a little prayer, asking God or the powers that be for permission to dowse.
A Dowser’s Prayer from Samantha:
Dear God (Or Higher Power) Please help me be centered and grounded so that I may become a clear channel of your divine grace, direction and wisdom. Protect me from all negative energies and influences while I open myself up to do they work and guide me to finding the right answers for all those who come to me for advice and help. Amen.
