I hate carrying my mid-sized shovel, (it's hard swinging a detector, holding a shovel and smoking a cig.[I know I shouldn't be doing the later]), but I find it an indispenable tool in some areas. I have been thinking of attaching a sling to it Anyone have any thoughts or have done this themselves?

Great Idea Del! Now people will really think we are land surveyors. People have no clue. I've had people say , Oh you have to dig to find coins? lol lol
One thing to take in to account is your height and the shovel length. Being 5'6, I had to get the little Eagle. It's like 27 inches . Maybe I'll get to use it if the rain stops and the fields dry a little.
