- Double-Stitched Nylon Construction
- Accommodates Bounty Hunter® S-Rod Configuration
- Includes Outside Zip-Pocket For Extra Batteries Or

While there may be metal treasures under the asphalt of the parking lot, most modern day bounty hunters prefer to get away from their automobiles to more fertile territory before getting down to business. Likewise, the bounty hunter code of ethics rules out prospecting on private property, environmental reserves, and historical or archeological sites, so finding the right beach or park to comb may require some foot travel. To protect a sensitive metal detector in transit, Bounty Hunter offers this metal detector carry bag. The bag accommodates all Bounty Hunter metal detectors with S-rod configurations and displays the Bounty Hunter logo on its side. Crafted in sturdy outer nylon shell with double stitching, the bag protect from dust, debris, weathering, and light water damage. A rust-resistant zipper provides quick access to the detector while keeping the bag firmly closed when sealed. For transporting spare batteries or stowing found goods, the bag provides outer pockets with zippers. Users carry the bag by two large handles. The USA-made bag measures 28 by 10 inches with expandable width and weighs 1.8 pounds upon shipping.

Also make sure you have a quality hand held digging tool and pouch to carry your finds in. Here is one such set up:
Bounty Hunter TP-KIT Pouch and Trowel Combo Kit
- Trowel and treasure pouch for digging up and carrying precious found metals
- Stainless steel trowel with plastic handle
- Nylon pouch straps around your waist for hands-free digging
- Includes sturdy buckle and 4 pockets for carrying treasure, trowel, and almost anything else
- Made in the U.S.A.
A Bounty Hunter® finds pouch and digger will help you to retrieve and secure your newly found treasure. The stainless steel 9 heavy-duty digging tool has a comfortable plastic handle and a handy depth gauge. Your finds can then be easily kept in the tough nylon pouch with a 2 adjustable web belt that contains two large packets and two side slip-in pockets.Hunting for precious metals has always required more than a map. During the California Gold Rush, prospectors came equipped with blasting powder to tunnel through rock, picks and shovels for digging out rock matter, gold pans for sorting through the debris, and rail cars to transport the goods away. While, in today's environment, a treasure hunter employs a metal detector rather than a map, one still needs tools to uncover finds and tote them away. Bounty Hunter recognized that need and developed this pouch and trowel combo kit. For digging up bounty, the kit provides a 9-inch stainless-steel trowel. The user can monitor digging depth with the engraved gauge on the trowel surface. The plastic handle provides ergonomic gripping. When idle, the trowel tucks into a side pocket of the treasure pouch for neat storage. The pouch features durable nylon construction with two outer pockets for stowing the trowel and a water bottle. There also are two interior pockets for bounty or for accumulated litter. The user wears the pouch around the waist and can adjust the 2-inch wide web belt through the sturdy buckle for comfort. The USA-made kit measures 8 by 8 by 3 inches upon shipping and weighs 7.4 ounces. –Jessica Reuling
