Metal detecting with a Minelab E-Trac & Garrett Pro-Pointer V1

Out in the woods near to where I live metal detecting with my E-Trac & Garrett Pro-Pointer.

If you are thinking of taking metal detecting up as a hobby, try and invest in a good quality detector and remember to always get permission before detection on private land... Happy hunting :)

u need to invest in a trowel

[WilliamsHobbies]

@morts18 I do use one on the odd occasion, but i find im more likely to damage the item by using one.

Nice hunt and great video! You made a good choice in machines :) Looking forward to more of your hunts.Good Luck!

[WilliamsHobbies]

@NiagracountyNY Thank you. Soon I will be making a short video of my best finds if you are interested, also I hope to get out metal detecting this weekend with my camera. HH :)

@Hawkeye14341 The probe has been placed in a small freezer bag, the bag is then wrapped in duck tape leaving a small window for the light. There is nothing wrong with the probe, it just keep the probe clean and scratched free. We replace the cover every 6 months. The probe is like new even though we have had it for over 2 years! :)

@ps249 We were in the same wood last weekend & found a gold ring! :)

those spades are a waste of time, if you can afford an ET get a decent spade!

Cant believe you spent 1k on machine to show you finding horse buckles. Get together with some experienced guys and use that machine to it's potential. I have got an vk40 that pulls up hammered coins every week!

[ps249]

[Otis9796]

Nice job.

[battlecircus10]

I'm hearing Clangers but don't see any !

[pghmole]

Slow that swing down geez..

[Hawkeye14341]

Why do you have duct tape all over your garrett pro pointer if you dont mind me asking great hunts by the way thanks just curious if you found it to be a cheap plastic or if you dropped it or something

[JRCrowley]

@kimdaviscali My guess is he does that to keep it clean and also to make it easier to find in the grass.

[MetalManMustang]

Why do you have tape on your pro pointer.

[chihene]

nice hunting..I would suggest cutting a large square patch from an old tire tube ...you can use the patch to place your loose dirt on so that you can easily return it to the hold..this is handy if you hunt in nice yards or prized territory..the rubber will not hold moisture nor dirt and will last a long time.

Nice video. Thanks to the person who held the camera. I wish I had wood to hunt in when it gets hot. I have to wear a big silly hat. Looks like fun.

[DetectorOCD]

Subscribed! HH and enjoy that Etrac!

[RicardoNY1]

Good video, nice techniques. I do advice you to wear gloves. You may cut yourself with something day. I personally use the kevlar type for law enforcement. They are good against broken glass.

[kimdaviscali]

Why is your pro pointer covered in silver duct tape?

Thanks

[MAGCARPET]

@morts18 I also think some poisen oak /ivy cream I swear the brush he moved was the bad stuff if you are allergic........

[mcge]

Dude, nice video...!!!

Happy Hunting.
