what is the deepist tesoro made

[razerback408]

help me out i have a Tesoro Vaquero and iam inprest with it but i hear the Nautilus will beet it what do you think

 

[Grubstake]

I would bet the LOBO ST will beat any of the other Tesoro's for flat out depth. Grubstake

 

[razerback408]

ok come on let me know you think

 

[SkiWhiz]

I'd say it's the Tejon.

Well razorback,

...I don't have experience with the newer Tesoros, but have heard that the Tejon is the deepest. Of my older Tesoros, the Inca is the deepest, it is a mono tone detector made in the early eighties. Then my choice for muti-tone is the Pantera, it is the one I use in an old park that is riddled with aluminum trash. Depth in trash is what counts for me, it depends on what kind of trash that is prevelent at the the place you are hunting at. For me, aluminum trash is more bothersome than iron nails, as most Tesoros handle this type of trash quite well.

GEE! every TESORO I have owned to date goes deeper than I care to dig LOL I find all my goodies in upper atmosphere who wants to dig to the stratoshere but then again thats me.

The Vaquero would have to be right up close to the top of the list for the deepest Tesoro.

We have virtually no mineralization in this area and all the Tesoro's get good depth, but the Tejon is the deepest Tesoro here. The Lobo ST was deeper in all metal mode, but the preset ground balance in the LST's disc mode was set way too positive and it wasn't any deeper, if as deep, in disc mode as my Golden

Since you specified Deepest Tesoro, without specifeing VLFs Tesoros only, I'd say the Tesoro Sand Shark would probley be the deepest as it is a PI unit.

Hi Razorback, The Vac does go very deep alright. I don't know squat about the Nautys except "they say" they are some of the deepest, and very heavy also. Heavy, for me is where the fun ends, even if it beebs all the way to China. I would mention that probably the only difference between the Tejon and the Vac, is that the T hits deeper /harder on brass/copper and the V hits deeper/harder on silver. One reason I feel that way is because I watched my digging Buddy dig the deepest small thin silver "love token"coin I have ever seen dug, with his V. I have serious doubts that I would have ever dug that coin with my T. Fact is, I had swung over that coin many times/days prior to my digging buddy ever swinging his V over it.I stood by and watched him digg it,I admit the "depth bug" can get you by the butt if you let it, and I was all fevered up again for geting me a V, but had to remember some of the deep buttons, and silver coins I have dug with my T.My "fever" finally cooled, and would only suggest you "Weigh" your thoughts well about how much hole digging energy you will have after"packing" that Nauty. No offence to the Nautys, but weight does hamper the fun/ elbow factor, more than we realize. HH, Charlie

Weight is truly an issue, I used to have the EX II and I used to have to switch arms some days because of the weight. (before that was the Soveriegn Elite, now that one would wear out an arm or two) Now these were all day hunts. With the V I can swing it all I want, and does it go deep? Last nite I dug a dime at a measured 9-1/2" and the V was on it without any problems, it was telling me deep, deeper than my 7" blade on my Leshe but still was dicernable as to what it was. I have no douts about the Nautilis, I am sure it is a great machine but understand there are alot of Great Detectors on the market that are better for long hunts.
