Amazon.com Review
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. --Ariel Meadow Stallings

 Bounty Hunter Tracker4 Metal detector March 19, 2010
BoSox Fan (Connecticut USA)
I am over 50 and always wanted a metal detector. I research the web to find one that would fit my needs. Price, simplicity and performance were the three most important factors.
This is going to sound like a lie but it isn't. In the first week of use I found coins (mostly pennies), a gold opal ring, a .925 silver braclet and a silver ring. Not bad for a first timer. The detector has three settings. One that finds any metal and two that basically are used for jewelry and coins. Through the use I have found I really only use two of the settings. Read the manual which takes about 5 minutes, do the test to learn about the different sounds each metal makes and you are ready to go.
Amazon.com had easily the cheapest price after looking around the web. Another piece of advice is you don't need a headset when using this and forget the fancy tools they sell for digging and sifting. I found a little garden shovel for $3 and in the kitchen section of a "cheap" store I found a strainer type thing with a handle for sifting sand.
One more piece of advice. Forget the beach for finding things. I have found only one coin there. I have made most of my finds in parking lots and playing fields. Seems many people lose things without knowing it while playing games and getting into and out of cars.
With the TRACKER IV, You are on the right track. March 13, 2010

I purchased the Bounty TRACKER IV with a couple of purposes in mind. First, I have a new residence and wanted to go over the gravel driveway and parking areas to find nails and other sharp metallic debris for removal. The TRACKER worked wonderfully well in finding many such items as deep as 3-4 inches. As an added bonus, I was able to track the course of the buried electrical service coming from the pole to the house. The second use will be for hobby type treasure hunting (relics, precious metals, etc).
The unit worked well and discriminates between various types of metal nicely. Although the built-in speaker works well, my advice would be to obtain a good set of monophonic headphones to eliminate extraneous noise and to hear faint detections better. Not really a negative comment - just a way to improve your hunting.
I would recommend this unit to a beginner or intermediate hunter. To get a major improvement would cost from several hundred to over a thousand dollars which puts you in the serious to professional category.
 As advertised, minor issues but is light and works well March 12, 2010

My research indicated this was the least expensive detector with truly useful features and I am not disappointed. Only complaints are that the meter is not needed - it is too sensitive and simply pegs whenever a tone is heard. The instructions suggest no use for it. Also, it doesn't come with a headset. You need to find a pair that stays on when you're walking around and bending down to dig. Has good sensitivity, very easy to use, and has a discriminator that works. I haven't yet found the piece of jewelry we dropped, but if it's out there, I'll find it with this detector. Looking forward to using it on the beach this summer.
this detector saved my marriage March 12, 2010

I lost my wedding band last fall when I was doing yard work. I was brushing off my pants of dirt and leaf debris at the perimeter of our yard (right next to the lake) and my wedding band flew off into our lake. I searched all over the edge of the water through leaves and brush with no luck. For several days I searched the entire area for the ring but couldn't find it. Naturally, my wife continued to give me a bunch of grief due to losing my ring but I was determined to find it. After much research I decided on purchasing this metal detector due to its high rating and reasonable cost. I searched the area, both within the yard and in the water (1-3' deep) but found nothing but several aluminum pop cans, pop tabs, nails, etc. Winter finally arrived and the water was too cold to continue looking for the ring so I decided to wait until the Spring. We finally have had some nice sunny days here recently and I decided to take the metal detector back out to the back yard to continue looking for the ring. After about 20 minutes, I found my wedding ring in about 1 foot of water in a bunch of decaying leaves. I would have never found the ring without this detector and it literally saved my marriage. Great product and it quickly paid for itself. Very happy with this product and my wife is now happy with me.

I bought this. Works fairly well. Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to use it much. New job keeps me fairly busy.
