[QUOTE="madtuna, post: 408644, member: 44"] When prospecting for new ground and covering a fair distance at a quicker pace than when detecting, I'll often use tracking. But for 99% of the time I'll use fixed and ground balance regularly whether I think it needs it or not. It's very hard to track out a shallow target, but easier to track out a ground noise. Often those bigger deeper bits start out as a ground noise and don't become a defined target until you've removed several inches. I'd hate to track out a bigger deeper bit. Always check your ground noises, turn a ground noise into a target. [/QUOTE]
