Wearing My Garrett Carrot Down to a Nub - What's the Best Protection?

[AusTexDude]

I have put some use on this thing. It has eeked out thousands and thousands of targets but I have worn a couple holes in it. I hunt in extremely rocky terrain. It's acting all funny now.

When I get a new one, what's the best sleeve or cover for it? Any ideas would be welcome thanks.

Thanks

That gave me an idea for my current carrot.

I have this giant heat shrink tube that's lined with heat glue meant for large wires like 2/0 and 3/0 gauge. I just used to it make a perfect cover for this one till I can get a new one.

Thanks. That's going to give me detecting nightmares about Aliens probing me about where the Gold is to power their crafts back to home on the other side of the galaxy. 🫤

Just FYI, you can also spray it with a couple coats of plasti-dip.

LEARN how to PROPERLY PINPOINT First
Sweep it like a coil then when the loudest and solid signal happens. SLOWLY draw it back to you till it quits .then 1 inch from the tip is the target The detecting area of them is from the rubber button to the tip all along that surface

I have had this pinpointer for for 7 years, I dig 150 targets when I hunt, I hunt in extremely trashy areas with NO SOIL, 100% rock, I know how to properly pinpoint.
