About the Owner:
Hello, my name is Joe Schulz AKA: Pacific Northwest Gold Prospector and here's a little bit about me.
Starting out as a young boy I was always digging for treasures and exploring the outdoors. As time went on and I was a bit older, I got my first metal detector and I WAS OFF!!! Nothing special, but I just knew it was going to make me RICH!!!! I scoured our parks and ball fields just knowing it was just a matter of time.... But after what seemed like an endless piggy bank of coins and pull tabs, that maybe getting RICH was a bit out of range... Then, during a hunting trip when I was 14 I believe it was, I was handed a gold pan and we sat at camp in the afternoon panning for gold. It was there I found my first picker (barely a penny weight, but I was young) A whole new addiction was born!!! I kept a pan with me any time I was near water from then on... and still do... Although I have graduated up to a 4" dredge now... LOL
Now, after retiring from building custom homes, I find myself needing something to do. So, here we are writing an about me page for a new Prospecting/Detecting shop. Go figure... While I'm not super experienced with this new technology of detectors ( which I WILL learn) I do know my way around a stream pretty well... Above and below the surface.
I am committed and look forward to gaining your confidence/trust/support in the shop by carrying only QUALITY GEAR at AFFORDABLE PRICES!!!!
And
TOP NOTCH CUSTOMER SUPPORT!!!

Our Goal:
At PNW Gold Prospectors we strive to offer our customers some of the best gear on the market at reasonable prices... We feel that by doing this, our customers will have the best chance in retrieving whatever it is they are after, whether that be gold out of a stream, top pocket finds swinging a new detector, or just enjoying the outdoors with QUALITY gear. In my experiences it has always cost me more buying cheap... Whether it be that the units break, break down, or just don't perform like expected... Which adds FRUSTRATION to your experience and cost of a better unit when the time comes... If it didn't put such a sour taste in your mouth that you just want to sell it all and move on.... Hopefully we can save you from some of those mistakes and get you headed on a path to SUCCESS!!! If you have any questions about any of our gear, feel free to call or stop by the shop and ask away!!!
