Garrett Pro Pointer Review
Handheld Pinpointers have proven to be one of the most valuable tools you can use in metal detecting. The main purpose of a pinpointer is to save you time digging up your finds from the ground. Also, it prevents you from damaging the delicate metals by allowing you to know where exactly you should be digging. You can think of a Pinpointers as a smaller version of a metal detector that you can insert into the hole you’re digging to find your target without digging a crater.

When you ask serious metal detectorists if they use a pinpointer, many of them will tell you that they don’t go out without their Garrett Pro Pointer. The speed at which you can find targets is amazing. All you have to do is point it to the ground and it instantly tells you where to dig. You can even use the scraping blade on the pointer itself to quickly uncover your find.
Do I really Need a Garrett Pinpointer?
This really depends on what you plan on searching for. If you plan on hunting underwater then the answer would be no.Because the Garrett PROpointer is not waterproof! However, if you plan on digging holes, then you will be 
amazed at how much time and energy a good pinpointer can save.
When coins and other metals get buried in the ground they begin to oxidize, causing them to turn brown. Unfortunately, the color of dirt is also brown which means that even with a good shovel finding coins can be very time consuming and require quite a bit of effort.
Garrett Pro Pointer Pros and Cons
Pros
- As you approach the Garrett Pro Pointer vibrates and beeps! It doesn’t get much easier than this. The vibrating effect is very helpful if you have heave headphones on which don’t allow you to hear very much external noise. Many of the other Pointers on the market don’t feature the vibrating technology, so this is definitely one of my favorite things about the Garrett Pro.
Cons
- I’ve had problems turning this device on in the presence of other metals, so be sure to hold it away from metal before turning it on, otherwise you can get false positive readings, or no readings at all… If that happens just turn it off, hold it up in the air and turn it back on and then it works like a charm.
