    Name a Tesoro that you have never owned/tried, but would like to......

    .....and why? Also, what is your favorite Tesoro detector, and why? Just thought I might have a little fun. The Tesoro talk lately hasn't been very upbeat with all there troubles. Thought I would try and lighten the mood. Anyhow, there is no secret that I love Tesoro metal detectors. I have...

    I will restate my question.

    The whole thread seems to be deleted. My question was...does Tesoro and others pay a fee for advertising in the form of add banner? Or are they paying a fee to have a forum on this web site? If the former is true than, do all that have a forum have to sponsor there forum? Because I notice that...

    Golden Sabre short hunt.

    Got out a little bit Saturday with the new to me Golden Sabre. Was doing some paint work on an old House circa 1919. Took some time just before I left and got in a small hour or so. Most targets were it the 3-4" range. One quarter was 7" deep right next to a sidewalk. Came in loud and clear. I...

    Short hunt with the DeLeon. Silver ring.

    My buddy called yesterday and asked if I wanted to get in a hunt. I only had about an hour and we hit an old rodeo arena. Pulled this on my second target. The rest of the hunt was some clad and a little trash. Sorry for the picture quality, my phone is ancient.

    DeLeon finds

    Found these today with the Deleon. The button is military and the ring looks to be military. Maybe you guys will recognize what it is. The ring has a propeller and wings on it.

    Just thinking out loud here...who would be interested in a Tesoro gathering/hunt?

    I thought it might be fun if we Tesoro nuts might have a get-together. I have never been involved in a seeded hunt but it sounds fun. I have a really good place that this would work. Might be just the thing for all you Yankees to come down south for a day or two and thaw out. :) What's your...

    Any chance of silver?

    At a house that was built in 1966? I got a chance to hunt it. Was just wondering if it would be worth the trouble. Mostly like to hunt silver. I would be hunting with my Deleon or Compadre. Wheaty.

    Tesoro should make a Compadre with a threshold all metal.

    To be able to toggle to all metal on a Compadre ; now I would pay a few extra bucks for that. :) Someone should put a bug in their ear.

    Compadre find

    My brother found this in his wife's granddad's front yard, with his Compadre. He said it was about 4 or 5 inches down. He said there was several pieces of metal in the hole with it. Something just told him to dig.

    New to me DeLeon any tips?

    Just got a used DeLeon off of Ebay. I haven't had much time to try her out, but I did hunt for a few yesterday at a vacant house and found $1.06 in clad in just a few min. Any tips will be appreciated. I don't find much on this machine, on the web. There are no videos on uTube on it. (at least...

    Vaquero Vs. Tejon

    Ok, I have been using a Vaquero for over a year now and I have an itch to try out a Tejon. Anyone who has used both, could you give me your opinion of the pros and cons and how these two compare. I really love my Vaquero and will be keeping it. I'm just thinking I might like to add a Tejon. How...

    Vaquero goes deep

    I had an interesting hunt yesterday. I went to an old house, probably from the 30's or 40's that I was graciously givien permission to hunt. I hunted the back yard area around an old tree. The ground around the tree is littered with singals, so I tryed to hone in on the sweetest sounding ones...
