Private Metal Detecting Lessons · North Texas

Learn your detector.
Build your confidence.

One-on-one, in-person instruction with Ed Huffman, built around your machine, your experience, and the hunting you want to do.

Less guessing. More understanding.

Let’s work through the things that matter when you’re actually out detecting.

  • Detector settings and target identification
  • Understanding signals and deciding what to dig
  • Gold jewelry and old silver coin hunting techniques
  • Research, site selection, and practical field skills
  • Careful target recovery

In person, around North Texas.

Lessons take place at suitable locations where detecting is permitted. Send me your location, detector model, experience level, and what you’d like help with. We’ll discuss a lesson that fits.
