    New to American Detectorist

    I'm new to this forum, my name is Johan and I have been using a Whites V3i for the last 4 months. I live in Arizona. I really enjoy metal detecting and i'm always looking forward to the next swing.

    Welcome to the forum from Las Vegas.
    I've traveled a long way, and many of the roads weren't paved.

    Welcome from Kentucky! I also use V3i | What kind of places do you hunt? I prefer old homesteads and farms- fresh air & the mystery of what might've been... military relics are a fave.

    I'm still looking for the mason jar cache full of silver coins (or gold) lol

    Hope to see some pics and hear some stories from out West! :->

    Welcome from western MA. I also swing the V3i, had it about 2 years now. I started out using the C&J program but I found that the Hi-Pro program really works well for me here in NE.

    Looking forward to your future posts.
