I got the Bullseye 1 as a freebie when I bought my MXT. I like it. It does what it's supposed to do and does it fairly well. The new one looks a whole lot better though. Makes finding those dirty coins that much easier to find.

I have both the bullseye 1 & 2 and they both work great for me. I do prefer the 2 because it has the tone and the vibrate mode, vibrate works great if you don't want to bother anyone around you.

I have a Vibraprobe and it works great. The only thing I dont like about it is that you cannot just shut it off. You have to hold it vertical and it shuts off by itself after a couple of minutes. My Fisher CZ-20 goes nuts until it turns off, even with it behind my back and I cannot hunt until it shuts off. Anyone have this problem with other detectors or is it just the CZ-20. I havent used it conjunction with my BH QD II. will try it this weekend with the BH. HH.

I have a Bullseye 1 . Not impressed. It signals when I move it to the hole. Tried to readjust the sensitivity according to Whites instructions. Still no help. They did try to help. It was a free bee with my detector so I did not push for justice. Ha, Ha!

I have a Whites Bullseye #1 also, and it was giving false alarms also, it was beeping when I would just wave it in the air, until I finally got it adjusted correctly, now it works fine. The range is not very far, maybe an inch on dimes at best, which is good if hunting in damp ground where a coin can be hidden in a small clump of wet dirt.
I got to try a new Whites Bullseye #2 last weekend, and it has the sensitivity adjustment on the outside, which makes it easy to adjust the sensitivity now. It also doesn't give false signals while moving it around or bumping it against the side of the hole you have just dug like the old one does sometimes if not adjusted properly. I also like the push button on the new one, it is larger and fits the thumb nicely, and the light helps also to see down in the hole, plus it is narrower and fits the hand better. One thing it needs is a belt clip of some kind. Maybe Bullseye #3 will have a built in belt clip. HH Scotty
