Got the new E-trac yesterday, got the battery charged up.. First thing I do this morning was call Angel for some advice (Thanks again Angel)
So off I go to the park, an oh boy, it was a train wreck rofl
I couldn't get the pin pointing down and ended up making massive holes to finally find the target, trying to comprehend all the numbers was dizzying
So after an hour and few big holes, I left the park cause I didn't want to ruin a good thing there by leaving such a mess, and went to where the old hotel was.. at least there I knew I could make a mess and not have to worry.
I was getting , what I thought were decent hits, 17-40, 12-33, that were deep (8 or 9 inches or I think), but when I dug.. nothing was coming up out of the hole... certainly baffling... and after going 10, 11 inches, I would give up and fill the hole
The one thing I defintely do NOT like is the depth chart.. I really don't have a clue how deep the target is. Unlike DFX, it actually says 4 5 and so on, where the Etrac just puts a mark on a depth grid... that really isn't telling much as how many inches I should be digging.
I only was out for a couple hours, so I know I can't judge how I am going to like this machine or not.. I am sure, over time, I'll get a handle on it.. but I was right... to me, its like leaving the PC computer and trying to learn the MAC.
