It has been in storage since he died back in the early 70's. It was full of dust, that I dusted off. It doesn't look like it had...

    Well I broke down and bought a new Garrett pro Pin pointer. I can't believe how sensitive it is:thumbup:. Ordered it on Monday night from Detector Depot, they shipped it out Tuesday and arrived on Thursday. That's fast! They did the same thing when I ordered my Vaquero from them. They have me...

I asked her...

    What I'd like to see Tesoro do:thumbup:

    I was just thinking what new product they could come out with. My thoughts keep going back to a Pin pointer. I have the Treasuremate that was rebuilt by Vince and it works better then when I bought it new. I think Tesoro would put a dent in Garretts pin pointer. I can get over 2 inches depth ...

    Vaquero on youtube

    I called Tesoro yesterday to ask a few question about my Vaquero. I wanted to make sure I was setting it up right for maximum depth. I talked to Casey and he told me to watch a video on You Tube.,That he felt very informative on the set up and use of the Vaquero. I watched the video and was very...

    Be neat, be very neat when digging for target:detecting:

    Metered detector VS Tesoro Tejon

    I decided to take my older metered detector out for a spin to help remove the cob webs. I automatically fell back into my old habits of looking at the screen once I had a good hit. Getting older, my laziness would kick in and I would move on :sleepy:.I did find a couple of pull tabs and 2...

I went right to the swing area and started hitting several dimes. My next signal sounded like a nickle and out came this Gold...

    Which model would you recommend ?

    I have a friend who is just starting out detecting. He had a P.I. machine given to him and he wasn't sure how to use it. So I gave him a few lessons and took him to the beach. I think he only found a few pennies, but he was like a kid in a candy shop. He has been using the P.I. in some parks...
