Title: Re: Detector probes. Post by: matthewbullingham123 on February 17, 2014, 10:37:52 PM Garret pro pointer - Absolute beauty!
used to detect with out one , then tried the plastic sand scoop , and then got a pointer it makes it so much easier and more enjoyable detecting. Title: Re: Detector probes.

Didnt think they would be so expensive to be honest,so second hand shouldn't be sniffed at. If i have the garret 150, it would hurt if i dont get the matching probe and hat hahaha...you can get garret caps ive seen them lol. Title: Re: Detector probes. Post by: Bling (mark) on February 18, 2014, 02:12:52 AM Bought my garrett used on this site £50 well worth it if you do purchase one make sure to attach a bungee dropped mine a few times before fitting one.
Title: Re: Detector probes. Post by: Val Beechey on February 18, 2014, 02:54:10 AM I'd say spend the extra and get a Garrett 250 then save up for the Garrett pro pointer. Just a matter of priorities really. ;)
Val Title: Re: Detector probes. Post by: TheLoveDoc on February 18, 2014, 07:31:24 AM Ive used a few different ones since I started detecting and even used a security wand which didn't last long once the moisture and sand got inside ::) I got the Garret probe eventually and have to say its worth every penny.... best Ive used by miles ;)
Title: Re: Detector probes. Post by: welsh john on February 18, 2014, 02:44:06 PM I don't think a field test is necessary for the Garret as so many detectorests owns one, the word is already out there,
if you want to get a pinpointer get a Garret. ;) Title: Re: Detector probes. Post by: diggaduff on February 18, 2014, 02:50:49 PM Been using a Garrett for years they are tried and tested :)
Title: Re: Detector probes. Post by: dances with badgers on February 18, 2014, 03:45:12 PM i dont need one so im 85 squid better off lol ;)
Title: Re: Detector probes. Post by: 150aceboy on February 18, 2014, 03:56:21 PM Garrett Pro Pointer for me, i know their pricey but as said earlier worth every penny ;)
Title: Re: Detector probes. Post by: Dryland on February 18, 2014, 03:58:21 PM I agree with what Val said , go for the ace 250 or Euroace detector, and the garrett probe
