Ordered mine from Bart as well and glad I did. It's a great coil and takes a lot of weight off. I put mine on and haven't took it off since. The service and speedy delivery is why I will be doing business with him again in the near future.

I bet you won't either, unless you do it to clean it, or throw the stock one on for a laugh, but then you'll switch it back right away

I've got the small coil on my other machine and its not coming off. I guess after all the positive replies on the Pro and the 5X8, I'll have to try one. That's what I like about Tnet. No Bull talk just positive comments. Well, maybe a little bull. Thanks guys.

Not to sure about the 5x8 coil

I have used it a couple of times and have no luck with it , I mean none! Not saying its not a good coil but so far I am not impressed, but I know you have to get your coil over a good target and then dig it to find it, went to a spot today and dug some wheats and a 1900 IH there was a lot of trash there so going back tomorrow and taking the 5 x 8 , wish me luck.

Found this beauty Friday in the river with my 5x8. Smaller coil makes it so much easier to pinpoint under water when you definitely need the accuracy.

It will be as good as everyone says, you may not think so the 1st few times you use it but once your used to it you will wonder why garrett didn't use it as the stock coil. You can never go wrong by ordering from Bart. In my eyes he is the best and the best service along with price.
