Default V40 Pin Pointer

Just purchased a Whites MTX from Kellyco and with it came the offer to spend an extra $20 to get a V40 automax pin pointer?
Are these any good, does anyone use pin pointers or are they just a gimmic that ends up hanging off your belt for a few weeks before you throw it in the garage to collect dust?

the v4 pinpointer is a large pinpointer a bit too bulky for carrying also the sensitivity control knob will move if bumped. in my opinion it is not a good pinpointer the one i have came with my whites clasic 5 id md from kellyco i use the pro pointer now

Default V-4

Spend the $20.00 bucks. It is great trade bait down the road, or a nice extra gift to someone. It is only to big to someone that has a smaller one...

I wouldn't go hunting without a pinpointer regardless of the size. They come in too handy.
