I just got this detector for Christmas and I love all the new added features they offer. Now I've got the f22 and f44 and I currently use the f44 on my RUclips videos.
This has to be the best review of any machine I have ever seen. Well done !
+Darla Seefluth Wow - that's quite a compliment, Darla! I know you watch a lot of detecting videos, so thank you very much for that. Anytime I review a machine, my viewers will ALWAYS get my honest opinion. As you can tell, I was pretty impressed with this machine. Great value here! HH!
I do have chronic back issues, so I really liked that you said it was very light; that is right up my alley.
+DocLarsen44 Yes, this machine is really light, Doc - I hunted for 5 hours at that plantation and we even hit another location for an hour on the way home. The next day, I felt really good - no pain. HH!
I love it how companies are now focusing on those machines in the low to mid range categories! It's possible to get a very good unit for less than $400.
F44 is a good machine for the money, no doubt. I always liked Fisher Metal Detectors.
Great review Matt! It definitely helps having a great piece of property to do a test hunt. Very nice finds!
+The Hoover Boys Thanks Kurt! We've been over that property many times with the AT-Pro and E-Trac, so it was nice to see another machine sniff out a few goodies. Always something in the ground around those old plantation homes. Thanks for watching! HH
Wow! That's incredible
Fantastic review well put together and easy to understand.
I think this machine would be perfect here in the UK, and the ability to detect in all weather's is a real bonus.
Mine is now on order.
Thank's again.
I have the ACE 250 right now and plan to get the Fisher F 44 as a mid level machine because right now the ACE 250 is in beginner machine and I feel that I want to upgrade to a higher end machine plan to get it around Christmas time so not that long to wait happy hunting
Well done Matt, it looks like Fisher has a good refresh on their F2 and F4 metal detectors with the F22 and F44..
Great review Matt, thanks! Congrats on those great saves and that ring was AMAZING!!! Now that's a chunk of silver!!! Best of luck Bud & HH!
Hi my name is Doug I am from Leominster Ma, which is in the Central part of the state. I am shopping right know,but looking at this machine you gave me some great insight , thamks.
Very nice job on the review Matt. The F44 is a machine I would consider for my arsenal, especially after swinging my CTX with the 17" coil. It would definitely give my arm a rest! Well done
Thanks much for this video, I just bought a new one today on Amazon for $249 shipped. I do use Kellyco but this was too good to pass up. All the best Brian Smith
Great review Matt. Looks like a competitor against other detectors in that price range
+swanzeysearcher Thanks Brandon - the market seems to be flooded with machines in this price range these days. I gotta say, this one is going to be tough to beat at that price. Can't wait to take it back into some areas I've hit hard with the E-Trac and see what turns up. Thanks for watching - HH!
thats going to give the Garrett ace 350 a run for the money thats for sure. I would be surprised if it picks up what you E-Trac missed lol. Happy hunting buddy
Great review here Matt!
Be well,
Al-Fu
Great review Matt. Nice coins and relics. Nice ring Woody!
Maybe I missed it but looking for small coil to use. Second time out with mine on my relic site I found a 1851 Trime! Love my machine so far.
+Tarheel Diggin' fisher said f5 coil will work but I've got an f70 and the round coil from it seems to work. Didn't know if was a marketing tactic to sell equipment or what. This f44 I got beginning of July and I've got a big braided silver chain, a Trime and lots of clad. I'm very impressed with it so far. I'm in Indiana so we do a lot of field hunting. My biggest complaint is drop forged nails iron separation. They hit 20-30's the once home opens up a little higher. Drives me nuts! Thanks for a great review by the way.
Great video. That f44 looks like it may be a good machine to pick up in the future. I have a ring just like the one that Woody found. My brother found it metal detecting and his son gave it to me when he passed away. I had forgotten about it until I watched your video.. GL & HH
F-44 and a 44 quarter, how ironic for sure! Woody's FFA ring is very special, too bad there are no initials! Good Digs Matt and a very good review for the Fisher and KellyCo. Thanks for sharing and HH
+ErlefromVa Use some paracord for handle wrap. Will wear well and removable and fairly easy to install.
+ErlefromVa Excellent idea!
Awesome review Matt, the F 44 seems to be a silver machine for sure. I still have my FFA ring and it looks identical to the one found.
+Jerry Dineen Thanks for watching, Jerry - cool you still have your FFA ring! HH
Great hunt buddy! Cool machine! Seems like a great deal!
Can't wait for harmonica hill with the 44.
I can hear your new mantra "Score with the 44!!!"
+Robert Klauka You read my mind, Robert! I'm hoping to get out to Harmonica Hill this weekend and see what I've missed. Stay tuned! HH
Nice test, does look like a very good machine for that price range!
Got one for my girlfriend, little jealous of it and its lightweight , she found a gold signet ring in the first five minutes on the dry sand beach .
Ordering one today. Replacing my Bounty Hunter Discovery 3300 and Quick Draw II.I hope it is a Big Improvement but time will tell.
Nice video Matt!
thanks man! it's working out great! I like it a lot! the waterproof feature helps a lot as well.
I really like this machine looks great
man this is such a nice machine congrats plus awesome permission u have there an congrats on the silvers to wtg bud good luck out there ttyl!!!!
+gdvlman Thanks man - as you can tell, I was really impressed with this one. One thing I forgot to mention with the fast recovery speed. This machine is great in the iron. All 3 silver coins came from an area infested with iron. HH!
Very useful review. Thanks man!
Hey Matt! Took me a while to find time to get to this video. Great review and hunt! May be a machine I may want to pick up to compliment my e-trac as well. I may need a rest from the heavy machines. Been taking a toll on my body and would be nice to have something light, powerful and weather proof. Keep up the good work! :-)
Thanks for the review.
Nice review, well done
Very good review Matt great job thanks. GL & HH
Fisher F44 has the best tones
Very nice vid, I’ll be ordering one immediately, many thanks.
Great video and review . I am a fan of fisher products . And the tones are nice on the ears. But as a Canadian I will never use Kelly Co. Again . There mistakes coast me over $80 . Best wishes And thanks for the Awesome review.
+Metal4Detecting Thanks for watching, Josh! HH
Cool machine and a good review.
Thanks
excellent vid matt,nice machine.regards from the u.k.
Even a first time out with a new machine and you found some great stuff....not to bad a machine I must say...but I am still a Garrett man !!
+Rip's Relics Yes, usually any first hunt my expectations are low, but I gotta say it was pretty easy to get used to this machine. C'mon Rip... variety is the spice of life! LOL - HH!
Yeah....I do have a Exterra....have used it...just I love my AT
hi, i mbought the new fisher F44 setector, and trying to learn about this machine. i live in minnesota , i have to learn all the settings first.
Thank you for a very impressive video explaining the F44. I do have a question for you about the F44. Where does a headphone plug in? I tend to use headphones as I like to listen for those more faint signals as they do tend to be deeper and smaller targets. This does look like one fine detector. Weight wise I know my Fellow TH'ers in Virginia would be interested and with the price even more so! I have gotten two of my detectors from Kellyco and will use them for my next detector as well. Great prices and super service. I also love all the extras that Kellyco throws in when you buy a detector from them. Congrats again and hope to see you find more goodies in your next video! ;-) Dave
+THing4CSA Thanks for watching, Dave - and thanks so much for the feedback! The headphone plug is at the base of the control box. They have a rubber cover over it to protect from moisture getting inside. I also hunt with headphones as you can really hear the faint signals better. It's a great machine for the money! HH
+Tarheel Diggin' Thanks I had to watch the video a 2nd time in order to see where the headphone jack was located. I have watched other videos and am amazed at the number of TH'ers that do not use headphones, pin pointers, gloves, or dig wildly with very large shovels. I tend to be as careful as I can as I hate to damage anything that might be in the ground. True even the best has an off day from time to time. I have dinged a few coins and nicked a couple of Civil War bullets. Congrats about all the super finds and a very nice detector. Good luck with all your future searches. ;-) Dave
11" dd coil for fisher f44 is better than this triangulated concentric eliptic coil?
Hey Matt, another great video and review. I got rained out today with my White's MXT,, so the weatherproof certainly caught my attention. I see you mentioned recovery time in the comments,,, how's the pinpointing feature? - Jason
+GA1dad Thanks for watching, Jason - I had no problems with the pinpointing on this unit. Seems to be very accurate as you could tell by the location of the objects in my plug. It's always difficult to pinpoint objects in iron-infested ground, but this unit did pretty darn good. But that's pretty typical of these Fisher products. HH!
I have a bounty 202 but i want to up grade but i'm not sure what to buy.
Great review I just picked one up a few months ago. I still cant realy figure the ground balence out .
+Joseph Montero Thanks Joseph - yes, the ground balance is kinda awkward. There's a manual GG also, but I haven't tried that yet. Just have to make sure you're in an area with no metal in the ground while you are ground balancing. HH!
thanks I will do that
Thanks for the video on the 44. I preordered one and got one of the first kelly co sent out. I love mine! I was wondering how do you think it compares to the AT Pro? I've never used an AT but know a lot of folks really like them. Just wondering if you had any thoughts. Thanks!
+Tyler Williams Yes, the AT-Pro is a very popular machine, and that reputation is well-deserved. The fact that it's completely waterproof is a huge asset. It has more features than the F44, especially when it comes to discrimination settings. Because of it's popularity, there are several after market coils available for the AT-Pro which makes it an extremely versatile machine. That being said, the F44 has 2 features the AT-Pro does not... 1) Lighted display screen for hunting after dark. 2) Weight. The F44 is much lighter than the Pro.
Looks like a great machine Matt! Thanks for the review....How did the batteries hold up?
+Diggin Freedom Thanks Frank - batteries are doing well. I've been running this machine for about 8 hours now, and I just lost the first bar on the battery indicator. Still two thirds juiced. If you run with the backlight on high, it will drain much faster according to the manual. Seems very efficient to be running on only two AA bats.
Matt....would u recommend the F44? I'm a Garrett fan and want the AT Pro but that's out of my budget. Have you found it to be a good detector?
+TheGatechBuzz I've been running the F44 for about a month now, and yes, I would highly recommend it. Nothing wrong with an AT-Pro (best value out there for the $). The F44 is very comparable to the Ace 350, but the F44 has a few more advantages in my opinion. A lot depends on what type of detecting you do. If you want to hunt in the water, you should hold off and buy an AT-Pro... maybe a used one would be in your price range.
+Tarheel Diggin' I use the Ace 350 now and it suits my needs, but it's time Doran upgrade. Maybe be the F44 will be the one. Thanks for your time.
Great review! Nice machine. diggin more with the 44.. Is the GB in disc mode or only in the AM mode? GB GL&HH
+Upstate Digger Ground Balance (they call it "Ground Grab") is allowable in all modes of operation. Thanks for watching, Upstate! HH
А вы хорошие обзоры снимаете)
What is the price on the F-44 Fisher
Sells for around $339.
How do all you youtube metal detectorists get packages from Kellyco just sent to you?? I don't understand please give me some more info. Thanks
+crazysnake212 The fine folks at Kellyco reached out to me earlier this year to see if I would be interested in collaborating on some projects. This would include field testing some detectors and reviewing them. Normally, I would send them back, but I'm going to pay for this one.
Cool, so basically just because you make youtube videos about detecting regularly they contacted you?
crazysnake212 That and the fact that I've been a good customer for years.
And some say you got to pay a lot of money to find good things.
right I know
Anytime ya find a ring without a name or initials in it...it must be mine !!! lol
hell of a way to end the show-hahaha
