bounty hunter

Hello, I bought a Bounty Hunter Tracker IV around three years ago, and it has always worked well. I use it a few days a month on average. Yesterday I went to go metal detecting and found it would not turn on: the needle wouldn't move, and there was no sound. I put in new batteries, with the...

I started metal detecting with my Quicksilver pretty recently although I have had it a while. I have been using the standard 8" Coil and have been finding wheat pennies and newer coins, the oldest was 1944. I am not sure whether or not I am just not good at this, I am looking in the wrong place...

So I got Henry (my lrp) in the mail and tried him out. Seems really good at identifying trash. One thing I noticed is that bottle caps come up as a dime or quarter every time, but that's not that big of a deal. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed... there is so many options that I'm not sure what to...

Hi guys, I'm glad I found this forum. I'm brand new to metal detecting. I bought a Bounty Hunter Sharp Shooter 2 and it's been pretty good. Here is a pic of all my finds so far, nothing old and nothing fancy. I am wondering if anyone knows what this S-Shaped Coca Cola medallion is?

I couldn't believe it. Bounty Hunter Jr a Meteorite magnet Still trying to figure it out. Why this little thing rings up on small items so wicked. I know some detectors do not have true all metal mode which hurts them. But this doesn't either? It will hit a ball of a pen even. This has got to...

I just purchased the 4 inch coil from bounty hunter and just got it in the mail and haven't used it yet.I know it's good in trashy areas and helps you pin point targets easier, just wanted to know if anyone out there owns this coil could let me know how good it really is. Thanks

I've only had it for 2 days and practicing in my backyard. Is it me or do you have to swing in somewhat of a fast pace to get a reading (in discrimination mode) when I get a hit, i swing again but slower and nothin. But if I swing a little faster it hits again. So its a little hard to focus and...
