Well, as the title states, I had lost my wedding band at a job site. I was not too confident I would find it, since the job site was in rough, New Hampshire terrain. Sand, Granite boulders, goats, chickens, electrical wire, and anything else you can imagine was around the 2 acres. And to top it off, It is end of Autumn here so the leaves are 2 feet deep in some places. I was very sad about losing my ring.
I ordered the Bounty Hunter Tracker IV and had it shipped one day via fedex. It arrived on time and I assembled it easily. Installed 2-9V batteries and I was all set to test it out. I used a gold necklace I have to zero in on what gold would sound like if detected. It gives a low tone. I set the tracker to "tone" and the sensitivity ... Read More:

I saw a review where the guy said he could put two detectors and all his equipment in the bag. I can't. It's a cramped fit to put one Sharp Shooter two in it, and that's after you take it apart and put the two pieces in the bag. There is enough room for 8" and 4" coils and headphones, but you have to take everything out of the bag to get to them. The bag is cramped with the detector alone and offers no padding for protection. If it sold in the $5 to $10 range, I would have given it two stars.

When i first used this it made a difference right away. How did i know? My Friend has the Same MD as i Do (Tracker IV) and we were metal detecting next to each other. I looked over some spots he already went over and Still Found stuff he missed! Also practiced with the MD with the New coil and it is now able to detect SMALL nuggets of Gold, the regular Stock Coil is not able to detect it. This Coil also helps with Pinpointing to where the Item is. I would suggest buying this coil. Im buying another one for my Girlfriends Tracker IV.

This is the best deal you can get on the internet for a metal detector. I have been metal detecting for 13 years and have tried a few! You will not find a better one for under $400. I used to have the Radio Shack one that was the same and I loved it. Ever since, other metal detectors have disappointed me. This one is an improvement over the old version because I just took it to the beach and it worked like a charm. I've never had another low-end detector work at the beach. Most go haywire. The variety of setting combinations will allow you to work well in any area. I can get it to pick out coins in a trashy park, on the beach, or deep down. The ONLY drawback is that it doesn't tell you the depth, so you might have to dig more than you want. ... Read More:

I first rented a Bounty Hunter Fast Tracker to find iron property stakes on my property. It found the easy ones (with some difficulty) that are close to the surface. Then I rented the Garrett Ace 250 because I could not find the last two. It found them, even though they were buried 5-6" below the surface. The last one was really difficult because there were underground cables and metal trash close by, so I used the Ace 250's discrimination and elimination features to match the detection profile of a property stake near the surface. Then I used the "Pinpoint" button to find the stake's exact location. Believe me, this last property stake was VERY hard to find, and I don't think I could've found it without using ALL of the Ace 250's features!

My first metal detector - I purchased this hoping I'd find some jewelry at a local lake that had flooded last summer. I read the instruction booklet (very important) and sat-out to find treasure. Well...I found an old anchor, an old grill, and a Schlitz beer can. Oh well...It did work really very well, and I'm glad I got it. Now I'm off to the Gulf Coast and this will definitely be in my car!

We purchased this for our son for Christmas...it's a great little metal detector. he has had a lot of fun with it and so have we! It has good settings for fine tuning your searches and teaches the younger set how to really dig for treasure. It's a good toy - we should get much use of it.
