The LD38's 15" x 12" size is larger than the standard Legend 2 coil, and larger coils may affect swing comfort during extended sessions. Detectorists planning long detecting sessions may find a detector harness or sling helpful for distributing weight across the body. The larger coil design prioritizes ground coverage and depth for open-field hunting where these advantages outweigh considerations about extended swing comfort. If you plan multi-hour hunts, consider your comfort preferences when selecting coil size.
