    Can't believe it! You're close to Cairns where I live! I've idolised you and your family for many years with respect to your hunting and bush skills. Your old clip on field dressing a deer with a Mercator pocket knife.... I've watched it a hundred times! Thank you! And if you ever need a feed or a place to sleep in Cairns, reach out. 👍🏼👍🏼

    Fantastic video Steve, , That long piece of gold should sell well on line as pendent gold. Do you came across any wire gold?.The 5000 in the right hands is a formidable weapon,it’s well and truly a proven beast. The ground there looks like you could nearly run the 5 in normal Steve for more depth.Hope you keep going giving us these high quality videos. Cheers Greg

    • @stevegraf9276
      @stevegraf9276 Před 3 měsíci

      Thanks for your comments Greg.
      I haven't really found any wire gold that I can remember, a few long stringy bits but probably not wire gold as such. Yes the 5000 is a great machine, it's treated me well for the last few years that I've had it. My brother bought a 6000 but to be honest I still prefer the 5. It seems to run quieter than the 6.
      Cheers 😃.

    Wonderful video. I have only found your channel now and really appreciate you and your efforts.
    You come across so genuine, kind and thoughtful. A pleasure to know I'm sure.
    I'm very early into detecting and have one question please.
    At the time stamp of 17:33 you break apart a lump of hard clay with your left hand. The lump only broke in half and then you instantly discarded it by throwing it away.
    When you were performing your final sweeps to indicate where the signal was strongest, it was a rather broad area due to the restrictions of the hole diameter, meaning that pin pointing was not that great for you.
    How were you so positive that you had not just thrown away gold?
    I guess because it becomes intuitive to some large degree when you have experience and are also very focused. A spacially adjusted sense that has been trained.
    I thought it was foolish at first but then thought, hold on, he simply knows his stuff.
    All the very best hopes for you and your family. I have subscribed and will be watching all your wonderful series.
    I live in Bathurst NSW, so Hill End and Sofala are going to get a new dreamer on site haha
    May God bless and keep you.

    • @stevegraf9276
      @stevegraf9276 Před 3 měsíci +1

      Hi Ken, thanks for your lovely comments, very much appreciated 😃. In regards to the breaking clay situation, It probably may appear that I might end up missing the odd piece by throwing it away without checking but I generally always run over the area again afterwards just to make sure. I have at times found the odd bit off to the side that I almost discarded but I usually do pick it up. But it's not to say that I haven't accidentally missed the odd bit, but I think it would be small if I do. Sometimes I have got up to 5 nuggets out of the one hole which is really awesome because each time you get one out there is still another target in the hole 😃. In fact only two days ago I got over half an ounce of nuggets in a spot only about 2 metres square. Including one of 10.5 grams. Really exciting when that happens 😄.
      All the best with your detecting and I hope you find some good stuff, cheers 👍.

    • @stevegraf9276

    • @stevegraf9276
      @stevegraf9276 Před 3 měsíci

      Hi, I can't remember all the settings off hand but a couple of other people asked the same question so I wrote them down for them. I can't remember exactly which episodes the comments were on but if you scroll through to the comments on episodes 1 to 4 of these clips you'll find all of the settings I use listed in response to the same question. Remember they're not necessarily the same settings as other people might use but just what I use and they seem to work. Hope that helps,
      Cheers and good luck 😃.

    • @stevegraf9276
      @stevegraf9276 Před 5 měsíci +1

      Hi Mel, good choice with the gpx 5000, I've had mine for quite a few years and it's treated me really well in both Queensland and WA.
      I generally like to go as remote as possible mainly because most of the easily accessible areas have been pretty hammered over the years but it's always difficult finding new spots where you can legally go, be that on public or private land with permission. Anyway I hope your machine treats you as well as mine has, maybe I'll run into you out in the bush sometime 😃. Good luck cheers.
