Hey Bubba,
I haven't used the Bounty Hunter, but the same basic principles work for all detectors:
1) Read the manual (optional if you're one of those people who like to figure out everything for themselves and who don't mind re-inventing the wheel occasionally)
2) Re-read the manual (see note above)
3) Go out and use the detector.....and take notes (mental or otherwise) of the what you are experiencing
4) Go back and read the manual again and see what it has to say about what you were experiencing (good chance it is covered). Check to see if there are any video or tips posted anywhere dealing with that problem.
5) Practice, practice, practice........both in the wild and in controlled situations (like a test patch).
6) Be patient.....even if you're having a bad day (either not finding anything or finding a lot of junk) try to turn the outing into a learning experience (concentrate on things like overlapping your coil sweeps, or working on your pinpointing, etc)
Most of all, don't get discouraged.....keep coming back here for inspiration and to learn what others are doing. Share what you can when you can and ask questions as you feel the need.
BA
