got 5 wheats and a mercury dime today. today i set the e-trac on pitch hold and that helped me get the deep targets better.

Congrats!!! Great going on the silver and wheats.

Pitch hold makes me a little bit looney tunes after awhile lol but I do think it helps to hear the targets in certain conditions.

Nice Mercury. Are the wheats around the same date as the Merc? 40's-50's or are the older?? I've tried pitch hold and I can't do it. lol Maybe I'll shoot for long signals ;)

the oldest wheat in this spot was 1930, i have hunted this spot over four times. the only thing i did drifferent was use pitch hold instead of normal. i think on normal the sounds would of be just a chirp but on pitch hold the sound was longer then just the chirp. i will try it at another spot tomorrow.

You may have just sold me on pitch hold rofl I tried it before and didn't like it (kinda like spinach), but I may have to try it agian ;) 1930 Wheat is a great sign :yes:
