- Metal Detector World War 3 is Happening due to Silly Creators
Garrett, Minelab, XP, Fisher, Teknetics, Nokta and even bounty hunter are in a war. This war is being driven by a bunch of silly creators pushing hidden agendas that most do not realize. Can't we all just have fun and swing the machines we like without the drama? Oh wait that's how you get views...........

I’ll never understand people who love to bash. I feel like there are a lot of followers in the world who think creators always have their best interest at heart. That’s not the case. I personally have worked with First Texas products, Garrett and NOKTA at different points in time. Garrett is my go to because I like their machines, they’re family owned and American made. The only way I could respect a creator bashing a machine as mentioned is if they own it. Otherwise it’s all for selfish gain as to why a video is released because that creator does not have the details or facts they would rather spread misinformation.
Silly creators such as yourself? Thanks for the advice
WOW. Finally someone that’s not afraid to call out these haters and bashers.
I have had many go arounds with these guys since Garrett has released the Vortex. Yes I AM a Garrett user and supporter but I also like and appreciate and respect the other brands out there. I choose to use Garrett products based on MY choice not the choice of some wannabe influencer.
The guy that most of us are referring to HATES Garrett products. I watched him take an AT Pro and an Apex and slam them into a trash can. Really. Grow up.
Guys like Quarter Hoarder I watch and have full respect for. He loves his Nokta products and does a great job promoting them but you will NEVER hear him bash any other brand or company. He promotes and educates people on the products that he uses.
Great video Brandon. I’m looking forward to getting my Vortex.
I am reserving judgement on this detector until I actually use it. I have seen it in person when Brandon and I detected together at an 1830s ghost town of mine. I was using the Manticore with the M8 coil and we checked each others targets. I can say there was nothing I could hear he couldn’t or visa versa even though he was using the stock coil.
Is this a bad machine? I don’t think it is and considering it is still being changed with updates I would say keep your eye on it. I think everyone is passionate about keeping the makers on their toes to get the best machine for our community. Do I think someone should be fired? No but that all takes care of itself if it under performs.
I would point out the price point of the detector and keep that in mind. As for features I am going to see what happens when we get an actual production model to use and test. I would caution everyone to do the same and keep an open mind. I would swing a pink detector if it has better performance though.
While nail test are ok for measuring how detectors perform they are not conclusive as nails in the ground are going to be very different.
With all that being said having seen the earlier prototype being used it didn’t seem like a bad detector especially for the money. From a dealer standpoint point there are things I do not like but those things honestly have zero to do with performance and more on the business side of things and us not having the ability to sell the user the upgrade. I hope that will change but I get it from the Garrett point of view too.
I am excited to test this detector when a FINAL version is released to the public. This is what will tell the story, if it is a good machine sales will tell the story. If not then it will also be apparent.
I will say the Manticore had some major issues at launch but the update really changed things with it too. So updates are something to remember how they change a detector.
Exactly!
I saw that guru sitting at his desk. I guess he didn’t understand the whole updatable aspect. He released that video before even running one. I didn’t subscribe, however I did subscribe to digger dawn in the uk and she loves the vortex.
Yeah, she's great!! Honest as well!!
As a Minelab user I think the Vortex is going to be a great machine. I even like that the frequencies choice that Garrett selected. And the chubby fellow who thinks he is a expert is a fool for calling people to be fired because he doesn’t like the detector. Funny part is lots of people set their detectors up in 5 or less tones because all the tones are confusing so his point on it is mute. Funny parry is Minelab engineers even laughed at his coin test for recovery speed because it really doesn’t show anything other then it beeps fast.
Brandon, this was a great video! I didn't know about the word thing for yt. You are spot on with everything you said. Everyone has their own opinion on what they like or don't like. People just don't know how to be decent anymore, it seems like. I'm so very sorry about your dog.😢
Spot on sir. When you were up here we compared a lot of signals between me swinging my XP and Minelab, and you that. It hit with no issues. So yea i agree. When you have the thing in your hands and have a bunch of hours. Then someone can render an opinion! Until then. More fake news by some of these channels.
Yep! Matt and I compared it with a CTX3030 signals in the water in Virginia as well.
I really like the way you composed yourself with this! I've been watching your videos for a while and I am with you.
I have a vortex coming and am looking forward to using it.
Hers am interesting fact, I have made some tests like th big guys do on the internet and compared alot of machines. The fact is if there are masked targets in your place you are detecting you better dig it all.
There are so many people out there just listening for that perfect signal. And I love those people. In fact I spend most of my time detecting "hunted out" sites just to dig the iffy signals. I get so many suprises and it never gets old!
Yep! My best areas are the “dug out” ones haha
Some folks tend to give things too much attention. And take things too far. Farther than things need to go. Unfortunately that’s human nature.
You are a class act, Brandon. Thank you for cutting through all of the crap and just stating honest facts.
Not sure about a class act but honesty is one of the things I pride myself on. I fill up and blow up with vent videos hahaha
Constructive criticism is a good thing for the end user.
Absolutely it is. But presentation is everything.
@@TheGlassFamilyvlog I can see where the "you should all be fired" part could rub some people the wrong way. Garrett never said they would add an iron filter/bias setting until after ww3 broke out. When the Legend came out people said they were copying Minelabs features.... Then minelab started releasing machines with a flashlight and vibration features. I don't use those features but an automatic noise cancel is a must for me. Every end user has their personal preference. Being able to upgrade to the next model is very innovative. Hopefully the other companies will follow Garrett's lead on that one. The thin coins mode will probably also be copied by other brands. That will be really popular in Europe.
Common sense doesn’t come with most people. It’s probably the reason I’ve stuck with watching your content Brandon. I like the way you approach things with an analytical open mind.
Thanks Brian, I like seeing all angles not just one.
common sense is a rare commodity
It’s a virtue in todays world
We'll see how good it is when it's released. The only thing that counts is performance and if you prefer brand over performance then good luck to you.
I don’t adopt bashing, but we have to admit, some of what they point out, like on the Nokta Legend, led to updates that fixed problems that even the engineers did not find. So like it or not, the same improvements or updates for this Garrett, are only being done becathey point them out. I’m a neutral outsider. My first detector was a Garrett master hunter in 1973, and owned a few others, then an AT pro, which was the best bang for the buck at the time, was too front heavy for me, so I sold it to a friend. I’ve owned at least 100 machines and that is probably an under estimate, with Minelab being my favorite performer on salt, but hated the poor quality and ergonomics. Deus has been one of my favorite of all time, quality and light weight but deus one, no salt performance. The Deus 2 I love, but have yet to get it to run smooth on the salt beaches like everyone else seems to. I have a Legend that owned since its release. I like it but struggling with navigating the menu, but the last two buttons I found were with it, in single frequency because of EMI, of which Deus 2 stinks at canceling. I’m rooting hard for Garrett to produce a real winner in price, performance, quality, service. It was sad White’s went under but since the eagle 2 s/l 90 1/2, they went backwards in performance. Beach hunter ID, (joke). V3i, crappy on salt too. Enough ranting, hope Garrett tweaks it until it hangs with the other SMF machines. I personally LOVE THE BLUE. The first blue water machine I loved, just not for water, was the TEKNETICS S/T. 34 or so years later, still my favorite ALL METAL for deep relics, so far ahead of its time, but poor design that rubber boots over switches to waterproof it. In 51 years, I’ve seen a lot and hope this new Garret is an eventual winner. Thanks
Agree. I’ve used Garrett’s for years. But,this machine does not have features that a 300.00 machine has . If you’re going to put a new machine out, at least equal what your competitors can do. If I was going to put out a new product, I would send beta machines to calabash,iffy signals or tnsharpshooter for an evaluation before I introduced it to the public. Not to paid marketers and board members. It appears Garrett didn’t do their homework.
For my money I wouldn't buy a garret but that's my preference
If I could afford this Detector I would give it swinging . I listen to a lot of channels and I myself would like to try this detector as I have a handful of different detectors. I just can not see spending more money on another detector.. Thanks for sharing. Peace
PREACH!! ❤❤❤❤
I would like to see Garrett add a vibration feature for us older folks who don’t hear as well anymore. Also the feature would appeal to divers. Have owned many Garrett machines over the years but now that I am older adding this feature would allow me to enjoy the hobby longer.
I just try to enjoy the hobby and stay in my own lane. These machines are so expensive I don't know if ill purchase many more, I would try this one out though. Good luck happy hunting to all.
Imagine getting upset over a hobby because others express their opinions. Garrett released a machine with less settings than cheaper machines with zero video to back it up. Let alone its not completed. They say its being released this month and taking preorders. Would you buy a car not knowing its capabilities or a camera, pc etc.
No one is upset over opinions. My main concern was someone trying to get a marketing team fired over detector features. To answer your question I wouldn’t review or buy a car without test driving it first. That’s why I said in the video to try the machine out yourself and make your decisions at a hunt.
Great analogy 💯💪🍀🤘😎
Well said Brother!
Great video Brandon. You are 100% correct. People will bash anything now days. They may not like Garrett, price, tones, color...etc. Garrett has great machines. Most of these people bashing have not even tried the machine. I am definitely getting the Vortex.
As an experienced traveling shallow saltwater treasure hunter, who has used every machine, I was about to pre-order 2 or 4 Vortex V9s. But before doing so, I called Garrett. I explained my experience, that so far the simple Minelab Excalibur has by far found the most gold jewelry, that I like simple in the surf, and all I wanted to know how the Vortex performed in saltwater. That I was set to order/get in line for several V9s. The nice woman at Garrett couldn't answer 1 question. I pushed and was transferred to a higher up. I explained my world experience. That I was about to order several V9s, but only if they performed well in surf. In a jovial manner he admitted he had not yet used a V9. What? That I should postpone my order and wait until the general public reports on the V9, and not their testers. What? Garrett has changed.
I have found a ton of great “stuff” with my ACE 400 following guys with equipment from Minelab and Nokta. I have also found gold and silver with my twin occular detectors. I’m sure people find all kinds of stuff I’ve missed. I say swing what you can afford, enjoy the hunt and keep your eyes and mind open. I’d personally love to have equipment from all the manufacturers.
Well said, Some people would have negativity if you gave them a million dollars. i like the blue color myself. My old whites machine is blue. all machines are great if you learn how to use them. I like Garrett myself I like the tones on them, but any time you deal with people their gonna have opinions and opinions are like butthole and they all stink. Great video.
Thanking for the insight on why some videos are made.
😅 Got your rant pants on today eh? I like it!
It’s been one of those days haha
I agree with you on the tones I purchased the manticore and can't really stand the tone sounds. I've always had Garrett before and still have my apex and AT pro. I'll be looking to purchase the vortex in the future.
Who do people bash??? It's just crazy. Use what you have, what you like, and what you know. Thanks for the rant, Brandon, I agree wholeheartedly.❤
Great episode Brandon!
GREAT analogy on the video games/trucks....
As I was writing my Garrett experience response here, you were bragging about finding more treasure with rods? Huh? I know nothing about you, but, how many pieces of gold and platinum jewelry have you found? I have found thousands of pieces of gold, silver and platinum with my metal detectors. I try most machines. So far none find as much as the simple Minelab Excalibur. You should join us on our next Caribbean trip, and bring your rods, or whatever you use. That would be interesting for sure! Perhaps you can tell us how well the Vortex performs in shallow saltwater? Can you? I do not care about the color. Nor the settings. I don't care about tones. All I care about is performance in saltwater. Will the Vortex run stable in saltwater? Will it hit gold rings at 14 inches deep in wet salt sand? Will the V9 hit gold chains? Sorry about your dog.😢
I have not used the Vortex in Salt Conditions yet. I will be heading to the Florida coast in the next month or so and will be trying it out on camera. I agree the Excalibur is a great machine even though it was released 2 decades ago. Just shows new technology is not everything. I am a bottle digger and probe out dumps and privies that’s the steel rod I was mentioning. My point from the video was all it takes is research and a shovel and you can find stuff.
Please show the machine in depth and it's capabilities
I was hoping for it when I did see this video came by
put it up to a good test hands on at the field or beach because that will be louder than any word said thanks in advance please put that vortex machine true the test because till now nobody shows it at least not wat I could find
I got sucked into this and didnt even realize it. The person's video you are referring to popped up in my suggested so I gave it a watch not even realizing he didnt own the machine he was bashing. You have a lot of knowledge and wisdom on things most of us do not even pay attention to. I really appreciate you sharing that with the community. I love my Minelab Equinox and my 10 year old son, Mason, loves his Nokta Legend, but we both started together using the Garrett Ace 250 and we loved that machine too. Obvious proof that people should just use what they like. Heck my 10 year old has found some stuff most adults will never find. I appreciate this channel and the info you put out more with every episode I watch. You have helped me convince myself to go back and delete my comment on his channel, not that i took place in any company bashing cause i wouldnt but also dont want any connection to it either. Garrett is an awesome company and we love their products but most of all their employees and the people they sponsor. Our Garrett carrots have found some of the most incredible pieces of history people would only dream to find. Keep the information flowing Brandon, we find it very educational my friend.
Great thoughts! I think I’ve seen some of the videos you were alluding to, very disrespectful. I’m a Garrett user and I plan on buying a Vortex, and yes I like the blue! 🤓
Well said!
Thanks Brandon. I didn’t know about the SEO.
Very interesting.
I own several different machines and I definitely have my favorites.
I won’t say anything negative about any of them except that I agree with you about the tones on my Nox 800. All tones sound like a flute or an owl hooting but I have plenty of friends who absolutely love theirs and keep finding amazing treasures. I can’t wait to try the Vortex 💙
Well said Brandon, we need more positive & less negativity from creators, there is a lady in UK who creates along those exact same lines, Digger Dawn, be nice everyone & if you haven't got anything nice to say just don't say it.
I know Dawn and she’s great!
New subscriber… I think that all the detectors have a place in the hobby. I still use the vanquish metal detector. Not everyone needs a water proof detector . Or 100 tones or tone breaks etc. etc. I only do parks,volleyball courts occasionally the beach when I vacation there. T I think too many people get caught up in the hype of the new detector s on the market and feel the need to run out and buy one. I’m not brand loyal. Right now I use a mine lab,when it needs replaced I might go with a Garrett or Nokta. My goal is to just get out and have fun. Happy hunting everyone.
Exactly! Welcome to the channel!
From a guy from the Early 80's Garrett machines, Just happy you are updating the machine to the battery and shaft and new screen ...You guys really lagged ...Make me another Garrett man before I'm gone ...
Whats the TONE OPTIONS ON THIS MACHINE?? DOES IT HAVE A ADJUSTABLE IRON FILTER?
💯 Correct!! Petty folks out there.
Hope yall are blessed my friend.
Well Said !!! Very proud of you! Much respect.
I own Garrett and Minelab detectors. Can't wait to get this Vortex. 😊
Nothing wrong with double dipping haha!
One more thing. Anyone who does a video with a classic Coke machine in the b.g is someone to listen to.
I agree with this video.
Truth!
I am trying to get one to test out when they start shipping. I don't own any Garret machines, but willing to give them a try.
Garrett are the only company that is not drowning the industry with new machines every other day 😮😮😮
Very good points made. I am going to wait to see what the Vortex is all about after it comes out to make my opinions about it.
Smart man!
@@TheGlassFamilyvlog I used to use the GTAx machines. Then switched to White’s. Maybe it’s time to come back to Garrett.
At the end of the day what matters is to dig up less trash and more silver and gold targets...😊
Well said. I totally agree thank you for making this video.
👍🙏>>>💚
I started with Garrett and learned the machines I own four different ones and have found treasure with all of them and I’m sure if I use any other typ of metal detector I would find treasure with it that easy 😊. Thanks Brandon for always explaining things for everyone to understand 💪.
I sure do try. And my viewpoint is not always right but I try to make sure people understand what’s being said is an opinion.
Makes sense buddy , respect from over the pond …find it & dig it … simple …
First detector was an outdated 70s version that ran off a 9v.
Super simple disc detector.
Found all KINDS of stuff in grandmas yard, thing is you become one w the machine.
Went from "okay now what?" to "nickel about 2" down on side.
But you EARN that. It's not automatic.
YOU are the detector, using a machine to fine tune brain.
All else is so much sales than anything.
Finally someone setting it straight...good job
Legend rules
Thanks for making this! Everything you said was spot on!
I've got a buddy with years more experience who often "Spanks" me with his Big 5 Bounty Hunter Metal Detector. 😁
Exactly!
Thank for you this video, I'm tired of the bashing of any product, if someone doesn't want to use something that's fine, good in fact, use what they want to use, no need to try and tell everyone else their choice is rubbish. I'd rather see these people go use their detector and show the great stuff they find, although that might set reality in when someone else is using an entry level detector showing better finds :)
You tell them, Brandon!! You're always going to have keyboard experts and know it alls. You will also have haters and nay sayers. Just let roll off your back and move on, or if they are not a subscriber, block them from your channel. Keep up the great work that you and your lovely wife bring us every week.
This wasn’t so much aimed at any particular hater of my channel but at people spreading misinformation just because they want views. After a bad week this video probably expresses how irritated I was to see some recent comments 🤦♂️😂😂😂
@TheGlassFamilyvlog yeah, I know. But everyone has a bad day every so often, but that is what they want. Is you to lose your cool just a little. But like I tell my daughters, they are the bigger person and just ignore them and not give them the satisfaction of you coming back on them. Beat thing to do is just delete the comment or block the person so you're not giving them any platform to comment.
I’m outraged!!! …I think 🤔
Sorry about your dog bud. Hope he is ok.
Thanks man he’s having surgery today so hopefully he will be alright.
It use to be a great hobby now most all public spots closed in my area do too newbie yuppie clowns with shovels.
I think Garrett is still behind the big boys. Notka probably has the best bang for your buck. I'm not a notka user but I'd buy one for sure. Minelab sounds aren't for my ear. However XP hits that spot for me but that's just my preference.
Nothing wrong with having a preference!
If you are close to Garland Texas and detect with groups you have met people using the beta test Vortex detectors.
Think we need to let general public decide how good a detector is, and not take what CZcamsrs say, as gospel. As CZcamsrs generally have a vested untested in a particular product. Especially sponsorship. Don't bite the hand that feeds you, so to speak
This is a true statement.
Everyone has a brand. Some love what they know, some love what they get paid to support. It’s fantastic that companies are coming out with fun new toys. Garrett buys whites then releases new machines that are touted to have technology never seen before but the Axium sounds just like the TDI pro and this sounds like the V3 🤷♂️ in the end they are toys for finding trinkets. It’s a great hobby so use what you want.
💙
Let folks use whatever they want, its their money, thats my take on it all
Bingo!
Sorry to hear about your dog being hit. Rant on!!!!
He has a $3k surgery scheduled for tomorrow. So he will be ok hopefully! My bank account not so much but at least he’s going to be alright!
@@TheGlassFamilyvlog prayers!!!!! They are like our kids!
Id love to see some hunts with ii
We've got several on Adventure Archaeology.
Brandon I stick with who or what I trust! I trust you and your family. Praying your Dog is okay🐾🙏
He’s in Surgery now hoping it does the trick!
I watched a live by a popular CZcamsr who does lives and the negative innuendos said toward Garrett’s new machine were ridiculous! I stopped watching and it’s kind of turned me off. That’s not what my MD community is about
At last! Common sense!!!!! You're not a Haveabash Digger 🙂Seriously though its all about choice. Some people dont want or need a detector that has 100 settings that they dont know how to, or understand what they mean.
I have been detecting since 1977, I have used and owned nearly every leading detector there is and has been. What I have learnt from all this, its not about which detector you own, its about choosing a detector thats right for you and your sites, then learning it, and above all good search technique.
If someone wants to make videos of coins being waved in front of a coil like they are watching a porn video then good for them 🙂
Who cares…as you say, they are opinions. I don’t watch the drama queens…not sure why you felt this video was even necessary. Garrett, unfortunately, brought some of this on themselves. They hyped the heck out of this thing and have since been holding back on the details. Some would say that is “silly”.
@TheHistoryDigger1 As mentioned I don’t get hurt feelings so this is just in conversation. This needed to be addressed. People need to be held accountable for what they put on the internet.
@@TheGlassFamilyvlogHave you seen that guys analytics……… looks like he’s buying subs or views 😂😂😂. Gotta love Social Blade the tell all!
Been wearing a hat all week Brandon ? You’ve got devil horns 😂 Hey man sorry to hear about your dog, hope he gets well soon 🤞🍻
Why buy any new machine then if all you need is skills? My first machine was from Radio Shack maybe I should have kept it and assisted it with a pokey stick I could have saved several thousand dollars over the years, I guess I just suck.
