Whats Right?

[Kalan850]

WHats up everyone!
what is right? Heres the thing, I've got about $450 so far to spend on detector and equipment. This will be my first detector and I want to make the right decision. This is what i'm thinking, buy the Fisher F2 with pro pointer and digging tool with the cash I have now. Then when I upgrade to the AT Pro my wife will be able to use the F2 and I will already have the pro pointer and digging tool. The other thought is to just hold out and save more for the AT Pro. any suggestions on a detector I could get for her if I do decide to go for the AT Pro right off the bat? We will be hunting the beach mostly and a few parks around town. on average we will probably be MDing two or 3 times a week.

Why don't you get yourself a starter machine (Tesoro Compadre; Garrett Ace 250; Fisher F2; Whites Coinmaster) a dry sandscoop, kneepads, finds bag, and a Lesche digging tool (you don't need a pinpointer to start or for the beach at all), and just see how it goes? That is my advice to you.

I've decided to go with the F2 Thanks again

White makes a very good starter machine that is even good to stay with. I think they call it the coinmaster plus or something close.

 

[Kalan850]

Yeah but its about $100 more than the ace 250. i think the only dif between the coinmaster pro and there base model(coinmaster) is audio id. They do have the vdi read out tho.

You won 't need a pin pointer on the beach just a scoop, but if you hunt parks or schools or yards you may want the pin pointer to help find the target.

I will keep that in mind thank you

I think, for the money, you can't beat the Fisher F2, especially with the deal Kellyco usually has. The pinpointer that comes with the F2 works, but leaves a bit to be desired. The little 4" coil, however, is worth it's weight in gold! The Garrett Pro pinpointer is fantastic, a bit pricey but worth it. I am totally dependent on my Garrett Pro. I bought two F2s and would buy another, but I can't get it shipped to Central America. When you graduate to something better, the F2 makes a great backup.

Well after days of reading reviews and watching videos i am for sure going with the fisher f2 coil combo and pointer kit for $215. Will be ordering online monday. Thanks again for all of yalls helpful comments .

Bought a used F2 with the 4" and 8" coils. It ships out tomorrow I'm stoked.
