The flag shooter was created in 2008 by Paul Carrette, who needed to locate utility lines in his backyard. It’s a tool that places marking flags into the ground and sprays paint in a single shot, which makes it the most efficient utility flag shooter on the market. This multi-patented product is considered to be the fastest and easiest way to shoot marking flags into any type of ground location (including ones that are hard or frozen). You can even get a choice of plain marking flags or ones that have been custom printed.
There are many reasons why people choose the flag shooter over any other underground utility markers:
- It’s easy to use.
- It inserts flags and sprays paint with one hand, which improves efficiency.
- The flags reload automatically.
- It has a rugged design with a one-year factory warranty.
- It can insert flags into hard or frozen ground.
- It reduces the chance of injury from frequent bending or twisting.
- It has a 90-day money back performance guarantee (restrictions apply).
- It has 1000 wire flags in a single box — 25 flags per clip and 40 clips per box.
This utility flag shooter can give you a faster and more effective way of marking utility lines, because you can flag and paint with one hand. This process can save you a great deal of time, which you won’t find in any traditional method of placing underground utility markers. And its ergonomic design can prevent back injuries, which can come from frequent bending.
