Minelab pro swing 45

I ordered my Minelab ProSwing 45 from Larry at Nwi Detectors and it got here super fast.

i was excited to get this because last year I had a rotator cuff injury and upgrading to the etrac been great but its heavy. I tried the detecting buddy but it helped but super uncomfortable.

While unboxing it I noticed that it is incredibly light which I was glad to feel it I put it together did some adjustments and it felt really nice on me my pouch fit my digger and my 10 pointer all mounted on the belt with not a problem. I even mounted my shovel there as well.

I took it out for a spin at a park by my house and it was amazing to feel a weightless machine. It took about a half hour to get all the adjustments down packed but when it was it paid off I can swing my etrac with my pinky.

One thing that I had to get used to was how to reswing the Machine with the harness but its not that its that bad it takes some getting used to it's super easy to unhook to dig and rehook.

while using the harness you can even feel it in the field it's so light it takes all the weight off of a bag on your pants and everything everything is not evenly distributed.

I would highly recommend this to anybody.
 
Its a lovely looking piece of kit but the price is some what high,i do have the original GPX harness that comes without that extra support but i find it personally too big and bulky,i use the same type that Garrett use on the ATX machine,it does a very similar job maybe not as good as the Pro Swing one but its much cheaper.

Of course as long as you are happy with it thats the main thing,i am not knocking it just trying to justify such a high price.
 
The Garrett ATX harness - it is the Detecting Buddy - we made it for them...and for the $$ - nothing can beat it!

And the latest incarnation is the 'Easy Swing' :thumbup:
 
Actually - not an "incarnation" but it's Tony Hunt's idea for the UK market...

Check out my Pro Swing 45 setup on the SunRay forum. I have the SunRay Ultimate Pouch and a modified Camelbak HAWG attached to it. Best setup I have ever used by far.
