Smile New to Metal Detecting - In Florida
Good rainy Afternoon,

Just yesterday I received a Bounty Hunter Prospector DX from my grandfather, after learning he had a detector he did not use. I recently decided it would be a fun hobby to take up since my Girlfriend and I live in Jupiter, FL on the inlet, and minutes from the beach. I'm looking forward to my first hunt.

Does anyone have any opinions of the Bounty Hunter Prospector DX? It's been used literally 2 times, and in practically brand spankin' new condition.

I've enjoyed looking at the finds from some of the members of this forum, very neat stuff, and I hope t find similar items in the future.

Sincerely,

Edward

Welcome from Jax Florida! I recommend you go to the section for "advice on detector purchases" and then use the search this forum function. You will find lots of info there. Just start reading.....
