To all Tesoro users Not sure if this was discussed yet but, tonight on NGC, National Geographic Channel, there's a new show called "Diggers". Looks like a show involving metal detecting. Just saw the preview and thought I'd get the word out.http://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648275#msg-1648275Tue, 18 Jun 2013 15:43:52 -0500 Phorum 5.2.18 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1654000#msg-1654000 Re: To all Tesoro usershttp://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1654000#msg-1654000
For some reason, they have a show on a fairly respected cable and satellite channel. I will have to give them that.]]> Nestor Cerpa Feedback ForumThu, 08 Mar 2012 01:35:45 -0600 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648939#msg-1648939 Re: To all Tesoro usershttp://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648939#msg-1648939

This show turned me off the minute they put a price on every find. they are not in it for the hobby, money only to bad. think what they could have found with a couple tesoros

I agree 100% with you.]]> Lake Hunter Feedback ForumWed, 29 Feb 2012 17:43:42 -0600 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648918#msg-1648918 Re: To all Tesoro usershttp://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648918#msg-1648918 otie Feedback ForumWed, 29 Feb 2012 17:17:27 -0600 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648873#msg-1648873 Re: To all Tesoro usershttp://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648873#msg-1648873

Not digging to deep are they. LOL !!!! :rofl:

Here is Garrett's response ...

Garrett Metal Detectors:

DIGGERS Program on National Geographic Channel. In response to those who are opposed to this program, it should be noted that Garrett Metal Detectors does not sponsor or fund this programming, nor do we have any input on its content. Charles Garrett has forever pushed the Golden Rule of Metal Detecting (filling in holes, hauling out trash, respecting landowners' property). How Garrett equipment is used on a TV program that Garrett did not film is not in our control.


That would be my response after watching those guys also.

I think they would have really made a mess if they would have used detectors that went deep.]]> Lake Hunter Feedback ForumWed, 29 Feb 2012 15:39:30 -0600 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648852#msg-1648852 Re: To all Tesoro usershttp://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648852#msg-1648852

Really goofy stuff. It's all staged to promote a brand of detector. The newbies, will take the bait, hook, line and sinker.

I feel every find was staged and those two guys were just over the edge. The beach hunting part was ridiculous.

Newbies WILL bite hard on this for sure.]]> Lake Hunter Feedback ForumWed, 29 Feb 2012 14:52:43 -0600 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648662#msg-1648662 Re: To all Tesoro usershttp://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648662#msg-1648662

It was interesting though, to see the finds at the SC plantation house. But really, who jumps around and does cartwheels when they get a mediocre good find. Maybe after finding a big chunk of gold, but really.

Summary, just another goofy reality show.

BTW, there is a big discussion about this, and another md show that will be coming on the Spike network, on the metal detecting forum, .

I enjoyed it, especially their excitement of their finds. I had a slight problem with them finding ANYTHING with their coils in the salt water at the beach. Am I missing something here? My ACE 250 and VAQUERO absolutely HATE salt water! Beach is fine and wet sand is fine with the sensitivity turned down a tad but coil IN the salt water? Does the AT PRO have that capability? Otherwise, it was nice to allowed to hunt those areas!

My guess would be they had their sensitivity set down WAY low in the water.

I think thats why they only spent an hour there.

Looks like the clad they dug there was shallow.

I own one, but have not tried it in salt water.


" I believe Garrett is a sponsor. I looked at an AT Pro for about 60 seconds. Not for me."
Thanks and good hunting,
Mike / '53Silver

Smart.

I own the V and 705 also, added the TS for a real water MD ( AT-Pro water resistant not waterproof IMHO )

Good Hunting,
Denny]]> kirk01 Feedback ForumTue, 28 Feb 2012 23:01:23 -0600 http://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648449#msg-1648449 Re: To all Tesoro usershttp://www.findmall.com/read.php?43,1648275,1648449#msg-1648449

I didn't have my AT long enough to tell. It was a leaker after an hour and a half in freshwater and got rid of it right after it was repaired and went back to my proven Sand and Tiger Shark.
