50/50.
50 percents depend on detectorist (where to go, what coil size to use, what frequency to use, how to set detector, how to swing, what things to pay attention to etc), 50 percents depend on detector's qualities .

The problem is professional instruments should be used by experienced operators in order to have best results. Professional instrument as itself doesn't quarantee you the best results.

If only!!!!!!

You can have the best equipment that money can buy.  You can have 40 years of experience under your belt.  And you can have the best site with permission but if you are not mentally prepared you will leave a lot of good targets in the ground.  You have to keep distractions to a minimum and keep your mind concentrating on what you are doing.  Good technique can go down the crapper in a hurry if you let it. 

PS  Good thread!!!
