Equipped with a powerful microchip computer circuit and patented Bounty Hunter technology, the Quick Draw II metal detector identifies specific targets at depth with tremendous accuracy, making it an ideal choice for coin shooting, treasure hunting, and locating lost property markers or household items.
The Quick Draw II--which runs on two 9-volt batteries--is designed for easy handling, with a lightweight, ergonomic build that's comfortable for hours on end. The detector boasts four modes controlled by an easy-to-use touchpad. Motion All-Metal mode offers a single tone that detects all types of metal. Progressive Discrimination mode, by contrast, uses a single tone to automatically eliminate iron and other unwanted metals. The Notch and Auto Notch mode add further versatility to the detecting process, with the ability to manually or automatically eliminate, or “notch out,” a select range of items.
Bounty Hunter equips all its metal detectors with a preset ground balance that neutralizes the response to mineral content in the ground. As a result, the Quick Draw II can distinguish between iron in the ground and valuable metals. The detector further distinguishes good finds from bad with a disc/notch control, which eliminates unwanted metals from detection, and a sensitivity control that reduces electromagnetic interference. It’s in the accuracy department that the Quick Draw II really shines, however. The detector includes a digital nine-segment probable target ID that identifies a wide range of targets, along with three-tone audio feedback. The unit also offers a digital probable coin depth indicator that determines how deep a target is buried, making it easier to dig up.
In addition, the Quick Draw II searches deeper than many other detectors thanks to the 8-inch open coil design, which searches to 8 inches for coin-size objects and 3 feet for larger objects. The coil and stem are even waterproof, so you can submerge them when searching for treasure in damp grass or shallow water.
To ensure privacy, the detector comes equipped with a ¼-inch headphone jack compatible with most headphones. Other features include an easy-to-read LCD display, a low battery indicator, an adjustable-height design, a padded armrest, and a detector stand. The Quick Draw II weighs 3.5 pounds and carries a five-year limited warranty.

Best metal detector for the money anywhere!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bounty Hunter QUICKDRAWII Quick Draw II Metal Detector (Lawn & Patio)
I did a lot of searching and review reading on the internet before finally deciding what to buy. I am convinced Quick Draw II is THE best value available of any make by any conpany. The features on the QDII are generally found only on much higher priced detectors. This thing really works as advertised. I have already found several coins and other things right in my own yard. It will reliably indicate what coin is being detected although it many times confuses dimes and pennies on the LCD readout. It is very sensitive and detects most coin size items very reliably to about 6 or 8 inches. The auto notch discrimination works well and filters out most trash items. I have used metal detectors that ended up being aggravating and frustrating. This one is a pleasure to use and is quickly becoming a relaxing and profitable pastime for me. If you want a serious metal detector without spending a whole lot of money give it a try... you won't be disappointed...

`underestimated detector,

This review is from: Bounty Hunter QUICKDRAWII Quick Draw II Metal Detector (Lawn & Patio)
The Bounty hunter QDII is a detector that allows both the proffesional and amateur detectorist to make excellent finds. although it is in Bounty hunters interest to push their higher price models, the QDII is probably the equal of most detectors in a much higher price bracket, and is in my opinion not promoted enough.It is good on the beach, on both wet and dry sand, it is at home inland, in forest, park, or ploughed field. it is advanced in its electronics, and very lightweight. this detector is in a class of its own, and very affordable. Dont allow the low price to put you off, this detector is easily the equal of detectors in the £600 price range, and will pay for itelf in no time at all.

Not a bad intro detector for Park or Playground hunting.,
By Cage SC "Only religion has good men do evil." (Greater Columbia, SC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bounty Hunter QUICKDRAWII Quick Draw II Metal Detector (Lawn & Patio)
For the same price you can pick up the SAME detector at WalMart. It's Wally-branded the Pioneer 202 there, but it's the same detector.
It's a nice enough "intro-level" detector to see if the hobby is something you might want to get serious about and thus make the necessary investments and upgrades to equipment designed for the long-haul or extended use. If you really want a fair to good dectector, I'd seriously try the Prizm series (III-V) of the Whites Electronics line or a similar intro models meade by more reknowned companies like Whites, Garrett, Fisher, Tesorro or even the foreign-made Explorer. PROS: - Dandy little "coin-shooter" for kids and visitors while YOU use the "real" thing - Ideal for sandy or chip-filled play areas - Lightweight and easy to use and adjust - Great little machine for curious relatives/friends to try, kids over 12 or to loan to land owners whose property you'd like to detect. - Not a "bad" investment for the money, but there ARE better detectors in the $200 range. CONS: - Like most detectors, it'll eat up those 9volt batteries in no time if you're not using headphones (Upgrading would save you batteries) - Not having a adjustable strap over the arm cup is literally a real pain in the arm! - No depth (about 4 inches is pushing it, though it's picked up quarters in "clean" soil at 6 inches) - Wil NOT work anywhere NEAR a salt beach...not even in the dry dunes. In fact, I couldn't use it to hunt a park about a mile inland because the Rec Dept had used beach sand for the play areas. - Overloads easily in trashy areas or mineralized soil. - Totally worthless for relic hunting.
