Bounty Hunter Land Ranger Pro Review

[@rlynch3159]

Five-year-old videos that is still relevant and helping people like me. Thanks!

[@usmc6157]

Outstanding vid…well done explaining the different aspects of this detector. I just bought this same detector new for $175 and this is absolutely the best vid covering its’ features. Again, well done…liked and subbed!

[@daveflowers3070]

Best review I've seen after watching almost all of them. Good job!

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

Thank you !

[@daveflowers3070]

Still going strong with mine here in Orangeburg Sc. I've learned the machine fairly well. Just not many great places to hunt in my area.

[@daveflowers3070]

its soo frustrating, I got my simplex+ late yesterday, and now were having stormy weather for a few days, and I'm stuck at work. cant use my new machine till the weekend, (weather permitting) Lowcountry Sc.

[@robertgrimes9947]

I have watch over 25 reviews so fare on the operation of the Bounty Hunter Pro, I have to truly say this review is the BEST I have Found as of yet Great job guy

[@rickbowie3784]

I just got the Land Ranger Pro for Christmas and this was the best video I have seen yet. Great Job. Helped me understand so much.

[@Jayson90210]

Hey Rick, I also got the LRP this Christmas. It's been warm here in Michigan and I got to take it out Christmas Day. I knew nothing about it, but just in coin mode o. The nearby old school yard in 20 minutes I found a 1962 silver quarter in very fine condition and 6 silver dimes. Took it out two more times and found nothing but junk, beginner's luck Maybe :-). But it has been acting erratic after the first time out. I have a strange question, but my girlfriend got this unit off of Amazon and when I opened the box it looked like it had been possibly reboxed. Question, when you opened yours, was the coil completely sealed in the plastic bag or was there a slit in the top of the bag to slide it out? I'm trying to determine if this was returned unit for some reason. It's so intricate that maybe something's not working correctly and someone realized it and returned it. Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

Thank you !

[@FloridaSaltwaterLife]

Thanks for the in depth explanation of the Land Ranger Pro. I just bought one of these today at Sports Authority who is going out of business so everything is on close out for $135.00. Went to the beach for an hour and ran it on Disc J and found 86 cents, 6 beer bottle caps and 3 soda can pull tabs. I like it better then my wife's Garrett Ace 250.

[@paulamiller81]

Very informative. I just bought one because I saw your video. I watched videos all week of various detectors trying to find one under $600. Can't wait to use it.

[@nddc-northdenverdetectoris867]

Thanks for this great video. By far the best I've seen for explaining and teaching all the features, which helped me home in on ordering a LRP, which was right in my budget range. (Upgrading from an old model Bounty Hunter Discovery 1100) Coils to the soil!

[@frankstith7800]

Thank you so much! I never understood the notch & v-notch until now. So very helpful!!

[@RickyD1968]

Yeah I took out my land ranger pro for the first time and " WOW" very happy with this unit. I still cant beleave the price! I really like all the settings this land ranger pro has its really a high end machine at low price just like i thought! me and my Daughter found some coins and some relics only was out a couple of hours. So two thumbs up for the land ranger pro!!!

[@PrairieKid03]

THANK YOU!!!!! Video made my day. I really didnt know what to expect from my machine, thanks to you i am confident the little LRP will be the fisher f2 killer, and the f2 is a GREAT machine for the money. Thanks for the vid man!

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

PrairieKid03 Thank you for watching! I've reviewed and tested quite a few machines, and the LRP is a very good metal detector. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice of a machine this really is. One of the best deals on the market in my opinion. I know my buddy is going to love it.I was very impressed with it. Good luck with your detecting!

[@mrbrent62]

I bought one for my son a couple of weeks ago. I am very happy with the results. I'm still learning and watching dozens of metal detector videos but so far I'm happy with it. He complains because he doesn't get to use it when we go out.. ha ha

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

Awesome. Best of luck to you guys! Happy Hunting :)

[@Archtops]

Excellent review on this stellar detector! Very clear and concise. As a member from TNet I was just recently researching the LRP (on the forum) and with great reviews such as yours , it's easy to make a decision. I'm sold. I'll be upgrading from the CTX 3030!

[@StagArmslower]

I paid $255 plus tax at Walmart, I think I'm going to be very happy. Thanks for great explanation of functions, great for a start before reading manual

[@basiatoday1872]

Great instructional video! I bet that young man is hooked on detecting now!

[@liztaylor85139]

Great Review... Purchasing mine after watching this. Thanks.

[@RickyD1968]

I just got my land ranger pro yesterday I can't wait to take it out. Thank you for that awesome review. I have been doing a lot of research about this metal detector and others that cost around $500 and this land ranger pro blows it out of the water with all the features it has I paid $266 with free shipping came in 5 days. I used to have a T2 SE that i paid $900 but had to sell but I'm sorry I do not see a big difference in land ranger pro and the T2 SE besides the $634 price difference. I really do think you get a high end machine for a low price!

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

Rick Belles I think you are right on the money with that statement. I found this one for about the exact price you paid. Without a doubt, one heck of a bargain. Good luck with your new machine!

[@jackkoehler1740]

Nice job on the video. I just received my Land Ranger Pro and wanted to know if there was any videos on setting up the ground balancing, but you have gone through a lot of the options that I have not even considered. Thank you very much for a very informative video on this device.

[@happyhunting6303]

Husband bought me this online black friday for less than 200.00!!!this machine works very well!!!!

[@ivasmith8184]

I did enjoy the video and subscribed, One thing I like to see the reviewer do is compare a nickel to a pull tab. Thanks. Brian Smith

[@happyhunting6303]

What does a large copper show up as on this machine? I have this machine and love, love, love it!

[@stevensproull9388]

Nice Review .. Still Very Relevant .. Hard To Believe How Inexpensive These Machines Are Today!

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

@@stevensproull9388 Thank you!

[@philipheald]

great video,just got the land ranger pro,thanks for the lesson learned alot.

[@dann1081]

Hey. Great video. I got my LRP back in August, I've written a lot of helpful info on the TreasureNet forum. I liked the LRP so much I bought the Quick Draw Pro as well. I can change the lower rods without removing the coil to use the 10" concentric on the LRP and 11" DD on the QDP. One thing you forgot to mention, is that you can enter AM mode at anytime from the disc modes by holding down the "mode" button. Releasing the button places you back in the disc mode.And you can manual ground balance in AM mode all the way to 0 (salt beach) and it carries over to modes 2,3 and 4 as well. Great video though, for a great detector. Phantasman

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

You are absolutely right, I did forget to mention that. Thank you for your input, I appreciate it! I'll have to check out Treasurenet. GL & HH :)

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

dann1081You are absolutely right, I did forget to mention that. Thank you for your input, I appreciate it! I'll have to check out Treasurenet. GL & HH :)

[@dann1081]

Carolina Coin Hunter Hope you win the FTP video contest with this. BTW- I'm just over the mountains from you in Greeneville, TN. HH

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

I didn't enter the Bounty Hunter contest. The LRP is better than the machines they are giving away in that one, IMHO. Maybe we could hunt together sometime. I'll have to check the map. HH:)

[@ssweat]

+Carolina Coin Hunter they listed the prizes wrong I actually won one of these machines very nice, they listed the prize az the Time Ranger Pro so this was a delightful surprise compared to that old technology. I love your videos and reviews I also won the Quick Draw Pro and the F4 3 machines :)

[@SalmonKing52]

Looks like a great detector...certainly an outstanding video explanation of how to use the settings. I have an original BH LAND RANGER...How does this compare? What did they improve on? Next question...I’m a gold orosoecyir and in the market for a detector that will detect small nuggets yet one I can still use occasionally for coins and jewelry...will this fo the trick?

[@palawanrexx1331]

is there any bounty hunter detector that can be use in salt water? i only have bh junior and planning to buy another

[@oldgloryunited]

Just bought the Ranger Pro brand new in box. All packaged with instructions. Guess? 24.99 Goodwill!

[@iceman382]

I have both the Bounty Hunter Platinum and the Land Ranger Pro. Both are good detectors, but I prefer the Land Ranger Pro. Seems to offer better discrimination levels and more responsive overall. I have higher priced detectors, but like the lightness and ease of use of the Bounty Hunter Land Ranger Pro. The VCO on Land Ranger Pro could be better, but it does work. Overall, I like the machine.

[@WHUFC71]

great video. I'm wife bought me this detector. is it on par with a Garrett 400?

[@jerrydineen2827]

I enjoyed the video. I usually don't think of a Bounty Hunter as making a good machine, but I would be happy with the Land Ranger.

[@ivasmith8184]

Yrs ago they made Bounty hunters very cheap then the bought and merged with Teknetics and Fisher and the Bounty Hunter is 100% better than the cheapie old days. I have a Equinox and Eurotec Pro and the BHLRP...I',m actually thinking about selling the Nox. Brian Smith

[@DetectingtheBurgh]

I still keep my BH 505 as my back-up. Good machines all. nice video.

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

DetectingtheBurgh I agree! Thank you for checking out the video, and happy hunting :)

[@MrCountrycuz]

I just sold my Whites DFX yesterday and I purchased the Bounty Hunter Time Ranger for a song. I used the time ranger in my back yard where I had used the Whites and guess what? I dug up two quarters in my back yard where I had hunted with the Whites before and found nothing.

[@lostismyconstent]

Thanks so much for the informational video! I just got this machine and am brand new to metal detecting, I was wondering if it would pick up things like lost phones and other electronics? Where in the range would those kind of things show up as?

[@etexshooter3166]

Do you find the Land Ranger Pro a better all around detector than the BH Platinum Pro with the 11" DD coil? Thanks for your opinion.

[@dann1081]

+E Tex Shooter The Platinum is a Teknetics platform, iron range 1-39. The LRP follows the Fisher platform, iron 1-19. The Platinum has no manual ground balance, the LRP does. The expanded iron range of the Platinum helps if you hunt relics. Ground Grab on the Platinum only goes down to 40 soil. Wet beach is usually 5-25. The LRP can go to 0 ground balance in AM making it able to balance to wet salt soil. The P can't.

[@etexshooter3166]

+dann1081 Thanks, very good info.

[@ChingFong58]

+dann1081 .... I thought I saw a review how to manual ground balance with BHP. It shows it in manual. I have a BHP just purchased this winter, but haven't used it yet.

[@Outis1976]

Have you used the artifact mode on the LRP ?

[@fouramhq]

Hey fellow dectorists!! I have some questions about this detector. I've had mine for quite a while and I just can't wring out that enthusiasm that many other people have about this machine. My previous detector was/is a QuickDraw II. I've used it for years and love it. So far.... it out-performs the Land Ranger Pro.... But perhaps I'm not doing something right. I am not impressed with the depth capability of the LRP. My QD II does better. I find the LRP to be too chirpy and erratic... I've adjusted the ground balance in the applicable modes. I've reduced the sensitivity and increased the disc level....and still the response I'm getting is very iffy.... I'm still working with the machine, but I'm not able to find the 'Sweet' spot in average soils for this machine. A clad quarter at 6 inches is about the best i can get out of my machine. The biggest annoyance is the jumpiness of the target ID, even on a solid target. Help!!!!

[@shermdeazy]

I have one as well these seem to work better with a premium battery from my experience

[@soldanovht]

great demo. thanks

@@CarolinaCoinHunter - Cool. Just ordered this metal detector. Its my first one. Im a noob. I live in Hickory. Are you in any groups around here locally?

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

@@America1779 No groups around that I know of. I've mostly gone solo,but have had a few friends give it a try

[@earlleelethbridge566]

I am a newbie and saving to buy here in Lethbridge Alberta. So at the beginning you show preset for america,may I set it for Canada?

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

Earl Lee It does measure in centimetres as well. One important thing to note, is that many newer Canadian coins are made of steel like the newer 25 cent piece. These will read as iron targets, so you'll want to look for the older coins. If you try to discriminate out the nails you'll lose those modern coins. You may already know this, but I thought I'd give you a heads up just in case. Happy Hunting!

[@earlleelethbridge566]

Thanks I hope for happy buying detector first...

[@darnellhelloworldmetaldete9823]

Good video I also like the videos THGT puts up...shout out to man...but in a forum I read that the LRP is neck n neck in depth with the At pro what do you think?

[@EasternExplorer]

Depth is about the same but the AT Pro is much better at picking out the good targets from the junk. With the BH you will dig more junk.

[@BradfordStokes]

What's your pick between the LRP and Ace 400?

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

I think I like the new Ace 400 a bit better. It doesn't have quite as many features, but it has a faster recovery speed and seems to be a bit deeper as well. Thanks for watching!

[@BradfordStokes]

Sorry, I repeated the question. Thx for the videos.

[@nathanlouchart1244]

Hi what is the best mode for you?

[@HolladayBibleMinistry]

I just bought this.... I'm likely to use the first 3 settings,lol. Is the coil waterproof? Ty

[@EasternExplorer]

You wont get the depth with the preset settings. The coil is water proof but the radio is not.

[@HolladayBibleMinistry]

Eastern Explorer which is the best setting in your opinion?

[@EasternExplorer]

Its hard to say, it depends on what type of detecting you plan to do. Personally I'm a relic hunter so I run all metal 98% of the time and mostly dig everything. You dig a lot more trash but you don't miss things like musket parts, bayonets, swords and cannon balls.

[@HolladayBibleMinistry]

Eastern Explorer makes sense. We are talking about the Land Ranger Pro?

[@TommyBoy3D]

Great machine. After 3 years though buttons wear out. Not buttons at all really just a press pad. Bounty hunter will repair it as they have five year warranty. Best in the biz.

[@Boghog1]

How would you compare this to say a garret ace 350?

[@CarolinaCoinHunter]

+Kurt Corbit This has a few more features to use, but as far as depth and recovery speed go they are very close. The BH coil feels a bit lighter on the end of the machine, a bit better balance, but both feel pretty good in the hand to me.
