Beach Metal Detecting Tips? Try Masters Class! W/ Terry Shannon

День тому

I got a chance to meet one of my metal detecting idols when I met Terry Shannon at the Sunshine Silver & Relic Hunt in DeBary, Florida. What you are about to see is a masters class in beach metal detecting. Terry is an author of books on metal detecting and they have helped me learn a lot since reading them. I got a chance to interview him and the beach metal detecting tips that you learn in this video will benefit your practice.

Hi, my name is Merrill Kazanjian. New York City is an amazing place to go metal detecting. We have lots of parks, colonial history and great beaches for beach detecting. I have gone to all five boroughs of New York City To Metal Detect and beyond. I also currently own 22 metal detectors. I want to have the best and I want to help you choose the best as well. Below I will showcase some of the playlists on this channel:

I am a treasure hunter. So in addition to metal detecting, I go mudlarking at sites in New York City. Think of mudlarking as metal detecting without a metal detector.

Great job in difficult conditions Merrill you can tell there was a lot going on at the silver and relic hunt, but you got er done. Not only is Terry an excellent Beach Hunter and treasure finder, but he's also quite generous with his time and information often so that others may enjoy the hobby as much as he has. Maybe next time you can get him to tell a few of his stories, he can mesmerize you for a while with just one recovery tale. Terry truly one of a kind. Thanks for coming to our hunt and sharing this.

When Terry speaks...I am listening 😂! I have learned so much from his videos and the book I brought that he wrote! Not only is Terry the king of Treasure Coast detecting, but he is a super nice guy! I emailed him about an item I found detecting the Treasure Coast, not expecting a reply. He responded and was super friendly and helpful! He is top notch in every way. For an insightful read, buy one of his books and refer to it often. Thanks, Merrill

@flamingomtn 27 днів тому

Nice video, Merrill. I adore Terry and it makes my day to run into him on the beach. You can identify his swing from a mile away. And I also met your friend, Mr. Gold, when I was detecting on the Space Coast one day. He's a great guy and he was so sweet to spend some time talking. What you said about meeting your icons will explain me falling all over my words if I ever run into you! Thanks again for all you do.

Terry is the best... a genuinely wonderful and kind person - so willing to share. I am blessed enough to have Terry (and Fred) and the others at the Treasure Coast as mentors. I really wanted to go to the hunt past weekend, but it just didn't work with my schedule. Now, I'm sorry that I didn't push harder. I would have loved to meet you as well. As Terry is one of your idols, you are one of mine. Anyway, thanks for the video (and the master class) and keep them coming. Terry's latest book is in full color and is definitely worth it. Check it out! Thanks again.

Try magnetic ACCEPT. You can also ground grab on the beach. I know that sounds counterintuitive to what you learned with other detectors. Do a ground grab and in black sand, use magnetic ACCEPT.

I’m glad Terry said “it’s a lot of luck”. Once you learn how to use a detector, it’s 99% luck. I’ve seen brand new detectorists, score a ring of a lifetime with zero experience, first time out or within a week of starting the hobby. That can’t be skill, lol
