Dilek knows the difference between a fixed and auto GB. So when she says it's auto tracking I believe it is just that. Just my thoughts.....
Here are her exact words -

Live digs only. I hate it when people say "wow that was a sweet sounding hit" then show a dug coin on top of a plug! How do I know the target was actually dug? I want to hear the audio to see why you dug it? No long intro's as others have noted. Keep it under 10 seconds. 5 would be better. All my videos are live so there is no doubt the target wasn't planted.

Garrett should be very strong right now. Whites is most likely on their way out? That's just my thoughts.

I was expecting her to say the retail price was $599.00. But at $299 they should sell a million of them. That would be perfect for fresh water beache, tot lots, sand courts and river hunts for me. I'll just need a small coil for the river.

I talked to Monte Vaughn on the phone about 15+ years ago about a Bandito. Within 10 seconds he was talking in terms that was way over my head. I ended up just agreeing with him so I didn't look like the idiot I am. Full respect for this man.

I see it's more of a channel description than an intro. This is fine. When I watch videos and there's an intro especially more than 5 seconds I move on. I have people giving me crap about explaining too much on my videos! I try to cater to newbies and pro's alike. I also will not watch a video if they don't show live digs. Here is what I hate - "Oh baby this big sil

yup! i remember those days when whitey,i believe,gave 40%
discount to dealers if they bought in "bulk" i don't remember the exact number,but think it was 10..40% was a tremendous incentive both to dealers,and customers.the 'difference" was "back then" detectors were selling "well",and whitey could afford to do that..my brother delt "puke color&qu

I used and sold Whites since the early 80's. I just let my dealership fizzle out since the MXsport fell short. I personally went through 3 of them that never worked right. I was even told by Tom that it's possible I didn't know how to run a machine! But the real issue years ago was the sweetheart deal Kellyco made with Whites. They tied all the small dealer's hands tellin

There will be a "window" where comfort and weight must fit. I would error to the low side of the window because weight is weight. As simple as my Gizmo was I made around 40 different lengths and types. Some were composite, tube and finally solid aluminum. I used each design myself for hours. I also sent prototypes out to be field tested. Cost was a big factor - probably the biggest!

In 2010 after swinging an Ace 250 for a bit I quickly saw a need for an arm cuff extension and counter weight. I designed and made several prototypes. I sent them out to a few die hard Garrett users for feedback. I tweaked them slightly and started making and selling them. The GIZMO works on all Ace and AT machines. Sales dies off a couple of years because of competition. I still get inquir

The 5x10 stock coil on my F19 did everything I asked it to do. I personally feel that if you get one of the good F19 machines you have the best all around Fisher. I should have never sold mine. I'll get another one soon........ If you have a good one you'll air test a nickel at 10+ inches. If you have a bad one you might get 6 or 7......

I sure am glad some quit the practice of spending 4 years redesigning the sticker and calling it a new release.... .Most companies were getting fat on their brand name alone!
I remember working as a mechanic when Toyota was sending us the so called 40,000 mile throw away cars. But a few years later they were coming in the shop with 150 - 200,000+ miles on them! This in the day when most US

I always thought Whites should have just raised the XLT's frequency to 14.7 and rode that pony another 10 years...... I think there best coinshooter was the M6.
