Greetings everyone, I am new to the forum and completely new to metal detecting and really enjoying going through this forum, there is a wealth of info here and so great to see how everyone shares!
I am looking at getting my first detector soon but would prefer to not have to buy twice and get something i can learn on as well as use once i know what i am doing. I will mostly be looking at hunting along our shores as i live across the street from the beach! I would also like to eventually use it underwater to look around areas where most cant venture.
After doing a bit of homework and whats available in South Africa i have come up with 3 options namely
1)Minelab Excalibur 2
2)Fisher CZ21
3) Garett Infinium
At the moment the Fisher seems to be the top of the list as it is apparently a lot more hardier than the others which will be a big plus considering that i would want to eventually dive with it.
I would really appreciate some feedback from you guys that are well experienced in this field! Any feedback would be appreciated!!
