Red face New to TQ from Texas

Hello out there. I literally bought my first metal detector one week ago. It's Bounty Hunter Lone Star model. Can anyone tell me whether this thing will hunt?

I have a BH Quick Draw II and works just find during my beach hunts. It gets a little erratic on the wetter sand though.
