garrett ace 250 or fisher f2? i know you guys have heard this before multiple times.

[OUTCOME1]

i'm sorry if i have asked a question that has probably been asked on this site before. i really am trying to decide between the Garrett ace 250 with dd coil or the fisher f2 with upgraded dd coil? how much of a significance are the digital read numbers that display on the fisher vs the Garrett model?

Hi outcome. I myself have a garrett 250 Ace. They now have a 350 ace but i still decided on the 250 ace.
I dont know much about the Fisher. But from what my point of view I wish I had a harder to work detector.
After using the garrett a few times I would leave it on all metal because I already know the sounds it makes. Woo somethings good in there!!. Anyway that's what I hear.

The detecter is simple, to simple but sometimes simple is a good thing. what I'm trying to say is that it doesnt have many tones to accurately tell you whats in there.
but they if find just as good as any other detectors

Several side by side tests on YouTube etc. The F2 usually wins the shoot-out. Much faster recovery etc. The Ace seems to be more popular on Tnet. I do not have either one but have been looking that direction for a loaner and to try and get my daughter hunting......not much luck not that she is 18. Dad isn't as much fun as he used to be. ....ha ha. Think I will go with the F2 unless I can find her a good deal on a used machine.
