Hi,

I think both machines work well but I would suggest you consider buying your son the Garrett Pin Pointer before worrying about  upgrading his detector. I bought my boys pointers to help them identify their digs and shorten their recovery times. What it also did was keep them motivated to search more just to use the pin pointer again.. lol

I can't recommend it enough because kids can dig up nails, glass shards and other sharp objects without thinking. The pin pointer can identify hard to find items quickly but also spare inexperienced diggers from painfull injury too.

Safety, fun, and adventure....

Speaking of the garrett pro pointer, they are a must, this morning i went out to a park that i haven't hunted before, four different times i hit a signal and i could tell from the ground that it had been dug previously but the signal was still there, i also dug but with the pro pointer i quickly discovered coins in three of the holes and a bathroom token in the fourth hole. I can see that someone was discouraged and couldn't find the target and went on detecting.

You may want to wait until late September as Garrett is releasing the ACE 350. You can read about it at

for about $50 more it will improve where the 250 left off.
