While at the Nor’easters Catskill Hunt this past weekend, I received an X-Pointer pinpointer from the distributor to evaluate and he insisted I would be impressed.

I had recently been hearing mention here and there about the new X-Pointer, and as always when trying out new products, I maintain and eager but skeptical attitude, until I actually see for myself how they perform in the field.  Let’s face it, no amount of demonstration or video’s is a replacement for actually using the product yourself.

I used the X-Pointer for about a 10 hour straight day of hunting on Saturday, and I did not baby it, I really put it to the test.

I had a great time yesterday at the Great Catskill Mountain Coin Shoot & Relic hunt in Big Indian, NY, hosted by the Nor’easters Metal Detecting Club.  As a matter of fact, people are still up there enjoying the hunt right now, as it was a two day event.  Ah… well, my ride had to be in Staten Island this morning at 10am, so I could only hunt the one day, but I’m happy to have just gotten one day in because it was worth it.

Finally got out and the detecting Gods were kind enough to bless me with a King George (date illegible), probably ’cause it was only a half inch down.   They also gave me a nice silver bookmark, and the hallmarks date it to 1924.
