Hi All,

New to detecting, purchased a GPX 5000 after researching on your forum. Spent a day with Darren from Gold & Relics Clunes who helped me with technique and settings. Have now found 15 pieces of Gold and am hooked! Sundays finds - New to detecting - Found some gold! Sunday14may

Hi MTB Digger,

Welcome and congrats on the great finds, yes once your hooked its hard to do / think / speak anything other than gold.

well done on the finds, glad to see you have done it the right way by getting help early, wish I did that, waisted 6 months and a pair of shoes lol!

MTB Digger welcome to the site and congratulations on your finds. Nice Gold and I hope you get many more to come. You could not have picked a better bloke to show you the ropes than Darren from Gold & Relics, he has been around for a long time in the detecting game and knows his stuff. Very Happy

Great to see your enthusiasm is paying off Smile Having great gear and a good knowledge of how to use it puts the odds of finding gold regularly in your favour...You`re going great Simon.

Cheers Bill
