What I would have given to have had a Garrett Carrot way back in the day when I was struggling to find difficult targets in the bottom or sides of holes using my old Mark I with the 8 1/2" coil. It wasn't until I bought my Minelab Explorer XS and a SunRay X-1 pinpointer that a new world opened up, the world of pinpointers. My how they've simplified the recovery process.
I've had my Garrett Carrot for a few years now and it has been a reliable sidekick. I give it a good cleaning now and again and check the battery, which seems to pretty much last forever. Other than that, it's been one of those No Thought Till I Need It Items for me.
