high price but worth it. Review by dreadetector

If you are new like me it can be frustrating getting a hit on the detector and digging a 5 foot hole and finding nothing. well I pulled the trigger on this and it tells on anything laying in the ground. sounds a steady beep when right up on the target. being waterproof to 20 feet is a plus so you can discreetly scan the bottom of the springs when you snorkel. will only buy from bigboyshobbies from now on. The owner actually answers the phone and shipping is super quick. Monday was a holiday and I got my order on Thursday!!! He will even answer our stupid newbie questions, grade A customer service!!!!

This was my upgrade from my Bounty Hunter PP, that I stopped carrying due to the need to touch metal (almost) before sounding. This PP AT is awesome! Light-years ahead of what I had. Bart at Big Boys delivered, not just in shipping, but also in service. Very professional and Great at communicating! (Posted on 8/16/2018)

Outstanding! Review by Michael Miller

Ordered the Garrett Pro Pointer AT from Bart on Tuesday, product delivered on Thursday. Bart is a breeze to deal with: price competitive, merchandise well packaged, a gentleman to talk to. Garrett took the industry standard in the original PP and tweaked it to the point that other competitors will be reeling for years. 60% more sensitive than the original PP, more stable, waterproof, built-in ruler, high visibility orange color, lanyard loop, waterproof. I often amused at some of the amateurish videos I've witnessed that demonstrate Brand X besting the Garrett by a few centimeters, but somehow fail to recognize the fact the thing falses more than a three dollar bill.
When Brand X is throttled back to a manageable level, sensitivity is more often than not found wanting. Kudos to Garrett and Bart Davis!

I have always used the Garrett Propointer until now and I am pleased to see they produced a good all round pinpointer with the AT. No longer do I get nervous if it falls into the water and so nice to have a pinpointer that doesnt false when you press it into the soil. Hats off to Garrett to this one. (Posted on 6/2/2015)

I pre ordered this as soon as it was available.
This pointer is a MUST have in your arsenal.Rugged,well built,and easy to use. With the multiple sensitivity setting there is a setting for everyone. Garrett has gone above the call of duty with this gem.
I highly recommend anyone that detects to buy this asap. (Posted on 6/2/2015)

I purchased the AT pro-pointer as soon as it came out and have been using it for a while now. It's been caked in mud, submerged, dropped, etc. & still works perfectly. The variable sensitivity and silent modes are very helpful also. (Posted on 6/1/2015)

I have two of the original pro pointers. Although they do work, I didn't care for the issues with that pointer, I'm sure we all know those by heart. After sending back the first several times, and ready to send the second back now. The new AT Propointer seems so far to be a winner. I planning on buying another AT Propointer.

Best pointer out!! Review by mattrose5

Love it. Great features. 2 thing I don't like is the feel of the plastic. Feels a little cheap. Another thing is unlike the old pro pointer, you have to hold the button a little long to turn it off. That's one of the best features of the old one. It's because of the new settings. So you'll have to hold that button a little longer but you can't beat it for the money plus the features are awesome. No more worrying about the rain. Keep up the good work Garrett. Buy yours today from big boy hobby. Free shipping, best prices and awesome customer service BEFORE & AFTER the sale also....

Much better than before! Review by Mudfire

Price

As an owner of both the original Pro Pointer and the new AT Pro Pointer I would have to say that everything I liked about other pin pointers has been addressed by Garrett in this new model.

#1 - No more falsing. I can't get the AT Pro Pointer to chirp no matter how hard I dig or twist it.

#2 - Multiple sensitivity settings. It takes a bit of getting used to, but you'll soon be re-tuning your new pin pointer in the field in a flash. The maximum setting is a beast at 2+ inches away from the tip.

#3 - Truly water proof. No more wrapping things over the sound hole or dipping the pointer in goo. The power button has been re-enforced too, making it much sturdier than the previous model.

#4 - One button balancing. The old model had to be turned off and back on again in order to get it to balance if it was misbehaving. The new AT just needs a push of the button to do that.

#5 - Rugged design. Add to all of this Garrett's super rugged plastic and you can see why I really like this new pointer above the original. (Posted on 5/29/2015)

Love this Garrett AT Pin pointer. Is very sensitive and works great. Being all weather really came in handy during the recent TX flooding where I lost a ring in my back yard which was under 7 inches of water. I put it on vibrate and went to work. within 10 minutes I had found the ring so that was a $2K save. As a side note it is great for tracing wires in a sheet rock wall as well. Love this thing. I carry it in my truck just incase.
I would highly recommend this product. (Posted on 5/29/2015)

After wearing out my original Pro Pointer and frustrated with the falling etc. I finally pulled the trigger on the new Pro Pointer AT.

Best waterproof PP out there today Review by Coinmaster Clint

Great pinpointer - better than the original non-waterproof variant. I rank the quality 4/5 due to the same issues as the original version, that being the need to place a small piece of cardboard between the back of the battery and the screw-on cap. Once that is done it never falses. I would have thought Garrett would have addressed that issue by now but that is not the case. (Posted on 5/29/2015)

Best pin pointer on the market. Love that it is water proof and you don't have to worry about it getting wet. Also the fact that it is water proof makes it nice if you are hunting on a muddy day you can just clean it off in a puddle. Also the sensitivity is better than the original pro pointer. I really like the pro pointer but love the AT. (Posted on 5/29/2015)

Double trust. First from the Vendor, Big Boys Hobies and secondly from the Manufacturer, Garrett who in my opinion has excellent customer service and always has taken the extra steps to ensure customer satisfaction. The unit itself is consistent and preformed very well for me. I would always recommend this tool, and advise that it is a detectorists "Must Have" accessory. (Posted on 5/29/2015)

#1 detector to own Review by CDVogan

So happy Garrett made the Pro-pointer AT. Finally I don't have to worry after those night hunts on the beach when I hit the water during the daylight hours. Easily adjusted with the one button. I personally have used it snorkel detecting in the Gulf to aid in finding the target while holding my breath. When Garrett said "waterproof", I was sold....Mine has been underwater well over 50 hours since owning it and there have been NO problems with it. Well worth the money for the piece of mind I have now. I previously drowned a Garrett Propointer and one other brand pinpointer forgetting that they were attached to my belt. (Posted on 5/29/2015)

The right pinpointer, from the right seller ... Review by cowcreekgeek

Quality
Price

Sure, they could always make 'em better. And, for left-handed folks, though I'm somewhat ambidextrious ... short of all that, and factoring in their patent advantages? The Garrett ProPointer AT is about as good as it gets.

Haven't had the chance to use it much, as my new dog thinks she should kill 'n eat it. Immediately. But, it just took minutes to know it's the only really smart choice:

One-press re-tuning on the fly is a must, once you've experienced such onvenience.

So is the progressively more rapid tones, to communicate proximity better than any other way there is ... one of their exclusive patents.

Water ain't gonna hurt it, one bit.

It's ORANGE, and beeps if ignored ... short of glowin' in the dark, it doesn't get easier to find.

All that, and I got it from Bart: Where you buy your equipment can sometimes be of greater importance than which device(s) you choose, and www.bigboyshobbies.net is absolutely the best source of accurate advice and honest dealings I've ever found in this sector ... can't imagine buyin' anywhere else.

Worth the Wait Review by Sapper

I've had one of these for a couple of weeks now, and it really has been all it was hyped up to be . A solid pin pointer, nice buttons, waterproof, and the sensitivity adjustments and silent mode are a great add also. Oh and most of all.... NO FALSING!!! A lot of people are very antsy to get theirs in hand, but Garrett is doing the right thing by slowly releasing them, making sure they're good to go before going full throttle. That's what sets them apart from some of the others who would rather just throw stuff on the market. It might take a while to get one, but it's worth every penny. Match up this Pin Pointer with BBH's quality salesmanship, and you have a for sure winner! Good luck all and happy hunting! (Posted on 3/2/2015)
