Bounty Hunter's Tracker IV detector offers the excitement and profit of metal detecting at an accessible price, making it ideal for those just getting started. With a fully submersible, 8-inch Bounty D-Tech search coil, the Tracker IV features three different operating modes to help you hit pay dirt. Motion all-metals mode responds to any metals you sweep over, full discrimination mode rejects iron and other trash items, and tone discrimination alerts you with one or two audio pitches for different types of metals. The Tracker IV does not have the LCD that many of Bounty Hunter's other models boast, featuring instead a large Sensitivity Meter. Ground Trac, a feature that automatically balances the machine to the soil conditions, makes the Tracker IV a tremendous value. Users will also enjoy Bounty Hunter's comprehensive, easy-to-understand online tutorial and downloadable manual at www.detecting.com. The Tracker IV runs off of two 9-volt alkaline batteries and boasts a five-year limited warranty.

Summary: Great on the farm, too.
Comment: We just removed and/or relocated some metal t-post and barbed wire fences on my farm. A couple of these fences were over 15 years old. There most likely were rusted and broken t-posts embedded in the ground. This would be a danger to the tires on the machinery. Believe me, you do NOT want to puncture a fluid-filled tractor tire which weighs hundreds of pounds. Anyhow, the requirement was for a metal detector which would detect these iron metal posts, and not discriminate them out because they are not "precious" metal.
This detector fit the job to a tee. In fact the manual even gave specific settings to use for general farm work. In short order I located and dug out five broken t-posts, and also found several pieces of old barbed wire and quite a few of the wire clips used to attach the wire to the posts. This was despite working on heavy, wet clay and through heavy grass (hay) about six inches tall. The unit was sensitive enough to even pick up the rust in the ground where old posts had been removed, but the sounds made it plain which detections were the important ones. I also found some old boards just below the surface. These boards were detected because they had nails in them! I probably saved myself hundreds of dollars in tractor tire service calls and repairs.
So, even if you are not hoping to find Uncle Ed's buried treasure, this detector is definitely useful.

Summary: Much more than you pay for
Comment: This is a great device... I found an aluminum can in my yard that was over a foot deep - much deeper than the product claims to be able to find. The discrimination works well, but don't overuse it or you'll lose inches on your depth. The display is useless, but you can easily tell what you're detecting by using your EARS! Put some "earbud" headphones on and listen to the tone of different metals.
I set my sensitivity to about 2 o'clock and the discrimination to about 10 o'clock. This is the easiest way to find the most stuff with the greatest ability to tell what is what. I'd buy another any day. You'll have to spend more money to get a detector that can go in the water, but this one works great on sand (wet and dry) and on dirt. Swing slower and for great advice, do a google on "Treasure Quest XLT" and join the forums. SO much info that helped me greatly both with this device and in general. A great place to share you finds too :-)

Summary: bounty hunter
Comment: I recently was forced into retirement by NYS...What do you do?? You buy some woodworking tools and a metal detector.I surfed until i couldn't read anymore reviews...i knew absolutly nothing about metal detectors.The bounty hunter IV was the only one that had alot of review. So i ordered it from amazon. Got it one day before i shoud have.Like a normal man i took it out of the box ,put batteries in it and went out looking.. I live in the Catskill mtns. where the ant-rent wars took place.In 20 min. i found 10 items (ALL JUNK BUT A LOT OF FUN )Then i decided to go in and read the directions.It's seems to be a great first metal detector.You don't have to know anything to use it.Bring a little shovel with you-It's tough trying to dig with your hands

Summary: Just what the doctor ordered.
Comment: Great bang for the buck, detector for me. Never using one before, I read alot of reviews and this one was in my price range. So far no treasures, but My idea was not to comb the whole yard in so many hours I am learning at my leasure and following the instructions. I am not disappointed.

Summary: Don't Forget The Batteries!
Comment: This is a great, comfortable, and easy-to-use metal detector, and if you're like me and have never touched a metal detector before, you will like the Bounty Hunter TRACKER IV. Assembling it was easy and took little time, but I didn't know that it needed batteries. Be sure to have TWO 9-VOLT ALKALINE batteries on hand when you get your metal detector!
The manual that comes with the detector is very concise and helpful - it shows you how to distinguish between trash and valuables and even between different types of metals based on the tones of the beeps. It also shows you how to do a tutorial with your detector to get you used to the settings, as well as tips if you're searching for coins, jewelry, or relics (artifacts). I was able to start searching in my backyard almost right away after I set my detector up. Haven't found anything valuable yet, but I'm having a lot of fun!
