Pulled up to my house today, and saw a box sitting at my door...

I got out of the car and walked over to the box. I glanced at it as I was reaching for my regular "I don't want this" mail. I saw who the box was from and immediately dropped everything to grab the box and run inside to tear it open!

I know, I know.... "What's in the box!?"

My new Garrett AT Pro and bonus pack! I am so flippin excited to use this thing. I tested it in my back yard for just a couple of minutes just to get a feel for it. I also have recently joined my local club, made some cards, a custom shirt and have gotten an amazing permission. I think I'm ready... just have to remember to put my pants on :laughing7:

By the way, if there's anyone in the Catonsville area in MD, hit me up!

Cheers everyone and HH!

Xr7ator- the permission is an old farm that possibly dates back to original settlements of MD... I'm stoked because I think it's never been hunted!

Angelito1- you know I'm getting my money's worth out of it! :icon_thumright:

Thank you Susan! I did a little bit of detecting before with my Ace 250, but as you can imagine the Ace 250 is very limited. I have a Pro Pointer and a Lesche shovel so I am well prepared to find some amazing things lost for 150+ years in the ground :icon_thumright:

I did the same as you... started out with the 250 and then maybe a year and a half later got the AT Pro. My only recommendation is to get the small ( I think it's 8") DD coil for it as soon as you can... the stock coil is great for fields and such, but for home sites that may be trashy (iron nails and stuff), your 250 will likely find more. I use both coils for the AT Pro and love the machine... hope you have good luck with yours! Rock on!!!

Congtats on the AT Pro HunterMF, I know how you feel about getting the AT Pro. I couldn't wait to get it out of the box. I had it assembled and hunting my backyard in about thirty minute. Found my first Merc in about five minutes. Hopefully you purchased the 5x8 DD, it works great in trashy areas. I don't live far from you, I'm on the other side of the tunnels about 30 to 45 minutes away. Send me a PM if you ever want to get together.
