mcgator 209 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Joined Bunk for the day since he just got a Gold Monster and wanted to take it for a walk. He wanted to try it out for specimen hunting. Everyone was blown away by it on this specimen where the gold was barely visible which made the Monster scream loud and clear. The SDC 2300 and the GPX 5K couldn’t not even hear it. One of the fellas was so blown away he's going drop $700 to buy a Gold Monster ASAP!! 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Morlock 1,613 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 If the signal was that loud, there might be more gold in that specimen then you think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mcgator 209 Posted January 28, 2018 Author Share Posted January 28, 2018 My thoughts as well and there probably is. But the SDC 2300 was dead silent. I thought it would pick it up for sure. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sonoran Dave 2,124 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Crush it and pan it if you have to know...otherwise it makes a great shelf specimen. Good job Mike! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
