Hey guys got a safari on the way, what can I expect. Leaving the AT Pro
IMHO you got one of the best. I'd guess you have a very different language to learn...but you'll be happy when you learn it. Best of luck!
Yeah a very different language. There are a lot of people that say that the safari is not very good. But they are comparing it to the etrac when saying that. Not a fair comparison.
I agree, it's not a very fair comparison :shame: They're two different machines.Quote:

Once you get a chance to get out and spend some time with the new machine you'll pick up on it.
GL & HH :grin:
My hunting buddy swings a Safari and does awesome. I swing the Etrak and VX3 and I never feel as though I have him out gunned. Good luck with the new machine.

Exactly what Drew said! I havent missed my ATP one bit since I got my Safari. Take your time with it. The tones are completely different than an ATP. And theres alot more info within them. Wait till you see the build quality of the Safari. Its awesome.Quote:

I run mine in All Metal mode 99% of the time. Good Luck
How does yours do in all metal??
I like AM mode because I can hear those good targets that are close to iron, I don't like it nulling out, just my preference. I may notch out -10 if the iron is too bad, but most times I don't have to.
Give us an update. How's the Safari working out for you 18 months down the road?
I love mine, it's got to be the best turn on and go machine out there.
