Coiltek 24x14 Goldstalker

Well, it finally arrived, my brand new Coiltek 24x14 Goldstalker! Bought from a dealer and registered the certificate number so it's the real deal, not an offshore copy. Visually I am rapt in the size of it and weight-wise, very manageable being even lighter than my all-rounder, the Commander 15x12 Mono. Can't wait to go for a swing with it (2 weekends away and counting).
There seems to be limited info on this particular size coil on the forum. Anyone else have or used one of these and can share their experience/findings/comparisons?
Cheers

hi costasdee
if your ever out with someone that has a 24x12 nuggetfinder any chance of doing a bit of a comparison?
I use the 24x12 and have been thinking about a coiltek just for the extra 2" width but was not sure the difference in depth
would be worth it.
I realise it won't be a massive difference, but sometimes a little means a lot.

Hi trashy,

I don't really think that there'll be too much difference in the depth side of it - I reckon maybe 1cm more. What I find with my "style" of swinging though is that at the morning when I'm all pumped, I swing from left to right quite evenly, but after 10 hours of doing this and just before my arm's about to drop off, I find myself walking slower and "pushing & pulling" the coil in front of me, so this is where the extra 2" will give a slightly better footprint on the ground. If I do find someone using the NF, I'll see if we can test them and let you know, but don't hold your breath until this finally happens.

Sooooo much looking forward to taking out this puppy and let it draw it's first blood on a slug of gold.  They should call it "the snowshoe" or maybe "bigfoot".
