    Sadly, Jack Gifford has passed away

    Sad news. I was just on the Tesoro website and see that Jack Gifford passed away on Jan. 3rd. My prayers and sympathy to the Gifford family.

    Happy Thanksgiving Tesoro Fans

    Just wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving to all my fellow Tesoro users and even those that use them other brands to include Mudpuppy! Wish I was down south detecting!

    Done For The Year

    Looks like my water detecting is done for the year. Bummer....... Tomorrow we are looking at 9-12" of snow north of Green Bay followed by a week of a Polar Vortex. I can never remember a snow storm this big this early. My season wasn't too bad. I found 2 gold rings, 2 silver rings, 2 silver...

    When Things go Bad!

    The day started out bad, that should have been my first clue. I had a hotspot I wanted to take my boat to hit with the Tiger Shark. This was a sandbar in the middle of a 600 acre reservoir that is surrounded by cabins and a few permanent residents. I had some problems and got off to a late...

    The Tiger Shark in a Sea of Nails

    Had a spot this week on a shoreline that was full of small iron and nails. When I stepped into the water and started swinging the Tiger was going nuts with targets. I took a scoop and sure enough nails and small iron galore. I took a nail and turned the disc up to knock it out or barely make...

    Another Good Day for the Tiger

    First you guys ought to know that Tabman sent me the genie. In the water at a beach today. Again this one showed signs of somebody else being there earlier. They left some serious craters. I filled most of them the best I could. Two more nice rings, but not worth much. The one on the left...

    Tiger Shark Scores

    Took the Tiger to a freshwater swimming hole today. Found that somebody had been there before me. This was an area that gets over 100 party going pontoon riding animals at a time on a nice summer day. Targets were far and few between and there were signs of someone else's scoop holes...

    The Amazing Tiger Shark

    No, it's not a story about a big gold ring find! I have been putting a fair amount of time in with the Tiger Shark in the water. All I can say is the Tiger just continues to amaze me. It's like a Silver uMax on steroids. I have found four rings, but no gold yet- at least real gold. Every...

    Loving the Tejon

    I am really liking my new Tejon. I now have about 18 hours on it. It's depth is really impressive! This morning I found a 22 shell casing at over 8" and it rang loud and clear on my disc 1 setting which was just above foil. This detector might be toughted as a relic detector, BUT it is a...

    New Headphones

    Just ordered a pair of Grey Ghost for my Tejon and Silver. Will have them Thursday and can't wait to try them. Anyone have any experience with these headphones on Tesoro's? How do they sound?

    First Outing With The Tejon

    Finally had time to get the Tejon out for a quick 2 hour hunt. The location was a park I have pounded with the Silver uMax. The particular area I hunted was one I had hit from every direction with the Silver and that has produced 40's wheaties. No matter how many times I hit this area I still...

    Tejon air testing

    Got my new Tejon, put it together and did some air testing. Gotta admit, at first I was ready to repackage it and send it right back. In my initial air test I could not get past 8 1/2" on a quarter in an air test. I was slightly upset. This was with a disc set at foil and sens in the red...

    Inbound- Tejon on the way!

    Couldn't take it anymore and ordered a Tejon today. I was on the verge of pulling the trigger on a F70 until I read "Mastering the Tesoro Tejon and Vaquero". After reading that I changed my mind and was dead set on the Tejon. Looks like it will be here Thursday! Next on the list (next year)...

    Question for Tabman and DeLeon Users

    This may sound like a stupid question, but can the Deleon keep up to the Tejon for silver coins in mild soil? The soil by me is sandy and very mild. I have my mind made up on a Tejon but then read the post by you guys on how deep that Deleon is with the 12 volts of double A batteries. Any...

    Beach Question

    I had a friend show me via satellite photos where an abondoned beach is that has not been used since the late seventies. The new beach is just down from it a bit. One tiny problem though, the beach is in a small National Forest Park. Is in the water off the the beach illegal?
