Got my new pro pointer at

[Pointman]

Speaking of picks, I bought an Hodan 16" pick and it works really well. It is the smallest out of the group. It has a rare earth magnet screwed into the handle, but I am going to buy a 3/8" diameter by 1-2 inch long magnet, bore a hole and glue it into the handle. I will then probably cover it with that liquid rubber to keep it from shattering if dropped or used roughly.

BTW, when purchasing rare earth magnets the higher the number the higher the grade or more powerful it is. For example an N42 is weaker than an N52 magnet of comparable size.

I just bought two Makros PP this year, but honestly I am waiting for a good review on the new Garrett and/or when they come up cheaper used before I spring on one.

Scorpion Rider, I got a small shipment in today but these are all presold. I think Garrett has sent out 2 shipments to distributors, but no one has gotten their complete first order.

I'm going to guess it will be at least a month or two before anyone has available dealer stock.

That's unfortunate. I ordered mine the day they were released, and it seems I was late to the party.

Even worse, I sold my other pointers in preparation, assuming I would have it before April...
