You may/may not know, I detect 100% strictly for the enjoyment, period. I don’t care about all the technical aspects, brand loyalty, “game changer” bullshit, or what the shills have to say. I buy what brand, model, and accessories I want. Last time I took the advice of the masses, I bought a POS with a noodle for a lower shaft…lol, but I think we’re all familiar with how that went I take full responsibility for the poor decision of simply listening to others.
Having recently become a new AT Pro user, while I have no love for Garrett, I think they’ve done their share smooching the pooch, but I held my nose and bought one just for a change of pace from years of Tesoro.
I’d seen the usual hoopla of a new detector from Garrett (starting from their Canadian shill) on Finds and DP, I saw reference to the YT video below.
I have a curious desire to know, what exactly are the qualifications needed to be an expert in this field, that others should pay attention to you? We’ve all seen the professor and his mouthpiece begging the www for attention (please don’t give it to them here, just using as an example), knocking this detector or shilling that one.
Not knocking the guy in this video, but if he and the aforementioned duo know what is needed, what would sell, what mistakes all those manufacturers are making, why don’t they simply start their own company, and manufacture their own brand.
I mean hell, since they seem to know what would sell, they have the opportunity to become millionaires by simply offering the detecting community what they so desperately need.
Or is it REALLY all about the clicks?
You decide.
