I really liked the Gold Racer, found it incredible in bad grounds and even squeaked out a nice trime with it but as ground phase in many areas here where I hunt in the low/mid 90's the Gold Racer would get slaughtered in depth. Mid frequency machines do well in my neck of the woods. I tried to get a Superfly coil for the Gold Racer but the only importer here would not order one for me and not even with money up front!! So with just the stock coil options and the largest coil they make too heavy and just too big I let the machine go.
The Apex though not a high frequency machine is very fun to use and fills a spot for a light weight high performance machine that works good in parks and woods for me. Weighing in just over 2lbs with the carbon shaft, I can swing it all day long. Use it quite a bit to scout new areas.
The deeper machines are the Tejon with 10x12 widescan and the Multi Kruzer with 12" Superfly. MK with 12" coil hits a clad dime in high mineralized soil at 12" with a faint audio but solid ID's. Tejon I believe does better with lower conductors and close in depth as the MK. MK and Tejon I also have concentric coils for them which I use for hunting in areas that have bog iron as that can mask out a target very quick.
I still use the AT Pro with a Mars Tiger 10x13 for fresh water hunting in ponds. Coil is very stable and has just a little bit better depth over the stock coil. AT Pro is very easy to swing in the water.
I just finished a batch of diggers. I used to sell them on ebay but ebay has changed their fees and shipping is more through them than I can get. I never got a website going for them, been word of mouth and have a garden shop that has sold some. Been looking for a dealer to distribute them but haven't gone full blast in making them due to supply costs probably from the pandemic.
I'll post info for you guys once I review shipping costs etc. and get my pricing in order.
Thanks,
Ken
