Hello everyone,
I wanted to pop in here and say hello, and express my excitement on a new Safari that should be arriving soon.
I've been using a number of different machines, but I've never owned a Minelab. I traded in my AT pro so I hope that the Safari was a good decision.
Hope to learn more about it from you experienced Safari users here!

Cheers,
Ken
 

Congratulations on your new Minelab! I'm a big fan of the Minelab products!
Happy hunting!

After owning/using a Minelab, you will be like," AT what?":laughing7: On my 4th Minelab (finally got a 705) and wouldn't own anything else now. I had a DFX before the 705 and to its credit, it performed really good but just had way too many adjustments for me and .....it wasn't a Minelab:icon_thumleft:
 

Have had a lot of fun and success with my "Safari". Depending on where you are going to hunt, a 5" excelerator coil is a great choice to be added especially if in a trashy area. You will enjoy it! :icon_thumleft: I like the way the Minelabs scream at ya to let ya know "Hey, I found it dummy right here under my coil" :laughing7:. Very precise and very good at pinpointing targets. Very simple to operate but a good strong machine. My only complaint is the cam lock tabs up and down the shaft become weak and allows shaft to loosen. Little tabs can be replaced though.

Congrats on the Minelab Safari Metal Detector | BigBoysHobbies! It is a deep one!
 

Well, the Safari came today. Took it out for a spin and all I can say is WOW!
I'm definitely going to love this heater! I couldn't be happier with it.
Thanks everyone for any and all advice you've posted.
 

Glad you like it! Heck of a machine.
 

Glad we could get you into a Minelab, Ken! It will be fun to see what you find with it! Swing it slow as compared to the AT Pro and you will have a lot of success with it. :)
 

Thanks Keith for hooking me up with this great machine, you rock!
My only regret is that I didn't get a Safari a long time ago.
