The CORS Giant 15" x 17" DD coil is a large-format waterproof search coil designed for Bounty Hunter Gold and Platinum detectors, delivering 30-60% greater depth than stock coils on large targets and 50-80% more ground coverage per swing. Bounty Hunter owners working open fields, pastures, or relic sites where target density is low and depth matters reach for the Giant when they need to cover acreage efficiently and pull signals from targets the stock coil misses. This coil excels at detecting large relics, caches, and deeply buried metals while retaining sensitivity to small targets (1 gram or more at 25cm depth), making it a versatile depth upgrade rather than a large-target-only specialist.

Why Bounty Hunter Gold and Platinum Owners Reach for the CORS Giant Coil
- Depth advantage on large targets: 30-60% deeper detection than stock coils on buried relics, caches, and large ferrous objects in open terrain where swing clearance isn't constrained.
- Ground coverage efficiency: 50-80% more area per sweep reduces hunt time on low-density sites like farm fields, pastures, and old homestead foundations.
- Waterproof construction for wet-ground hunting: fully submersible coil body filled with epoxy resin handles creek beds, rain-soaked fields, and shallow water crossings without damage.
- Small-target retention: maintains sensitivity to targets as light as 1 gram at 25cm depth when using slow, overlapping sweeps, so you're not sacrificing coin and jewelry detection for depth gains.
- Detectorists working trashy parks or tight brush should consider the smaller CORS Shrew 6.5" x 3.5" coil for maneuverability and target separation in confined spaces.
Depth Performance on Open-Field Relic Sites
Farm Fields and Pasture Hunts with the Bounty Hunter Gold
The Giant's 15" x 17" butterfly footprint shines in low-trash environments where you're hunting for deeply buried large targets. Relic hunters working Civil War campsites, old homestead foundations, or colonial-era farm fields benefit from the coil's ability to detect large iron at depths stock coils can't reach. The DD configuration reduces ground noise in mineralized soil compared to concentric designs, stabilizing target ID on deep signals. Swing the coil low and slow with moderate overlap; the large footprint means you'll cover a half-acre pasture in a third of the time a stock 8" coil requires. The epoxy-filled body and German-made cable withstand years of fieldwork, and the UV-resistant housing holds up to summer sun exposure during long hunt sessions.
