Bounty hunter Landstar

[richbat]

Well had a trade offer for one of my older recurve bows.The fellow was just getting started in traditional archery and asked if i'd be interested in a trade for his Bounty Hunter Landstar.Well told him i'd like to check around for some reviews on it and i'd get back to him,reviews were somewhat pretty good except for some folks saying they were junk but then kinda looked at it this way.If they were good enough for Fisher to buy out [hope i got that right,might be the other way around] then figured they couldn't be all that bad,so i made the trade with the fellow,he said he bought last year and used it maybe 2x's and it looks like it also,cleaned the dust off and she works just fine,even got a set of headphones with it.Now i know it's not the greatest thing and for me it'll have to do.I see these MD'S getting bashed all the time and hey your entitled to your opinion but to me they all do the same thing and that's detect metal objects maybe not as deep and maybe not so fast on recovery time but like i said it'll have to work for now.Really miss my Vaquero but more important things had to be taken care of.Rich

Commonly you will here comments about Bounty Hunters , The low end BH are not too good , but the upper end BH can be pretty good.. My brother had one , and up to six inches , even the midrange detector does OK.. I started with a BountyHunter VLFTR 840 in 1978.. And I found many mercs , and even a silver dollar with it..But I also dug a million pulltabs and bottlecaps..and pure junk..lol.. One thing they were , was pretty reliable..That bounty hunter was pure hell on your wrist and hand...Don't let the Chevy Ford guys bash your machine..If you are happy with it , that's all that matters !

I had one and I thought is was great....until my husband bought my Garret 1500 so then I sold my BH.
