The Bounty Hunter Tracker IV is about as budget as budget metal detectors come, which you will probably see online and in department stores for around one hundred dollars. However for such a cheap price, I still see some positive words for this metal detector, and remember it is geared towards "those just getting started". The Tracker IV comes equipped with a water proof 8 inch coil, multiple discrimination modes to help distinguish trash from treasure, a sensitivity meter instead of LCD display, and built in features to help with various ground mineralization issues. The sales literature also states that the Bounty Hunter Tracker IV can detect small objects up to 8 inches deep.

Nine Bounty Hunter Tracker IV users post their opinions of the metal detector at Amazon.com giving the detector a rating it with 4.5 stars out of 5! They like the Tracker Iv's ease of use, ability to find coins and other treasure, price, ease of assembly, and some recommend adding headphones to your order. I don't even see a negative word about the Tracker Iv metal detector out of all the reviews, and this note seems to sum them all up "This Metal Detector is a good intro to metal detecting. It finds coins great and has even paid itself over and over again for me."

So Epinions has only two reviews on the Bounty Hunter Tracker IV however the second one is good so let's link there. The average rating for this detector at epinions is 3.5 out of 5 stars with one positive and one negative review. I like the second review because for the person interested in the Tracker IV they also offer a similar alternative to give you some choices. They also add about the Tracker Iv "This machine is not designed for the experienced operator who will find the operation simplistic, giving inadequate depth and target response."

The Bounty Hunter website actually does a decent job providing some unique info on the Tracker Iv (bottom right of page). Most importantly it's worth a bookmark because they have the Tracker Iv's manual there in case you lose yours, want a digital copy, or want to take a quick glimpse at what the Tracker Iv can do. They also have a page of user testimonials which is rather interesting showing some of the many finds and stories from folks using their Tracker Iv. Lots of rings, gold and silver coins, and trinkets have been found with the Tracker Iv, go check out this bounty hunter page.

It's amazing how many people rate the Tracker Iv with such high marks for a $100 detector, however it's relative I guess so this detector seems to rate well in the entry level market.
