Howdy new member here from NW Washington

I am here because my 9yr wanted a detector for his 10Th birthday well I know nothing about this stuff so after much reading I ordered a Garret Ace 250 for him should be here this week. I'm sure we will be hanging out here trying to learn all we can.

Welcome from SE Washington!

Welcome to the forum. Good luck and happy hunting. Lots of videos on you tube about Garret detectors and how to use them. Lots of advice about digging small holes and pinpointing for new members and lots of experienced members on this forum to help. Hope you and your son have a blast detecting together.

My 8 year old daughter uses an ace 250 great detector she does better than me lots of the time. Welcome!

Welcome to the forum.

Your son will love the 250 and it probably won't be long before your buying one for yourself.

If he's never detected before, local athletic fields are productive and a fine place to learn.

Happy hunting.

I have had four Ace 250's so throw any questions you may have at me. I love displaying my stupidity..
