The DetectorPro Raptor set pairs the Raptor Pull Handle and the Raptor Guide Handle, two grips that attach to a wooden sand scoop handle. It suits beach and water hunters who dig wet sand, hardpan and shell beds with a long scoop and want more leverage and control on every lift. Both handles are also sold on their own in our DetectorPro collection.
Which scoops it fits
DetectorPro designs both Raptor handles to attach to a wooden sand scoop handle. On other poles, check the pole diameter first.
Where the Raptor set works best
Deep holes in wet sand, where the whole scoop is buried, are where the pull handle helps: you lift with a handle at a right angle instead of yanking a straight pole. The guide handle keeps the scoop from twisting in hardpan, rocks and shell-packed sand, and helps aim the scoop when wading in water you cannot see through. On soft dry sand a plain pole is usually enough.
Key features
- Engineered thermoplastic: light, strong and rust proof.
- Pull handle: leverage to lift a buried, loaded scoop, with a non-slip grip for shaking and sifting.
- Guide handle: a better push angle and less twisting in rocky or shelly ground.
