Description

The Tesoro Tejon and Vaquero have been on the market for some ten years, yet they are still among the best-performing metal detectors available. This book draws upon years of field experience and puts it all together in a concise, readable form. Even long-time Tejon and Vaquero owners will find something useful. Key topics, including ground balance and working iron-infested sites, are presented in more detail than ever before. This book can be considered more than just an advanced user manual; it's a ten-year anniversary celebration for these great metal detectors. Even those who own other Tesoro machines (Cibola, Outlaw, etc) will find much of the information useful. If you're even thinking of buying one of these metal detectors, this book has virtually everything you'll need to make the choice, and to become an expert with either or both of them. The book includes some rational thoughts on brand & model comparisons. It offers compelling answers to the question of why someone would buy a metal detector that makes only a single beep and has no screen. Read more

  • Excellent book that tells about digital Vs. Analog metal Detectors
Format: Kindle
I bought this book because I use a Tesoro Tejon along with many other metal detectors and I always am learning. Tesoro detectors are Analog circuit detectors while a lot of others are digital. Digital units are running with a 1 or 0 (on or off.) As the signal is processed it has to meet certain criteria or you won't even know your coil passed over a target. This book covers the Tejon and Vaquero along with a few other Tesoro metal detectors. A lot of what is covered also applies to many other detectors and tells how to increase your deep finds. ... show more

  • Very good read if you own either model
Format: Kindle
A very informative book on two detectors that serve partially as an extended instruction manual and a insight into why they are loved by many. It also compares other models for reference to increase your knowledge on all metal detectors so you end up detecting better. It should have been shipped with both in my opinion, the only down side is no paperback version available at time of review. ... show more

  • Great Read
Format: Kindle
I loved the book! I would love to see what Chis is using today. It is good for anyone who detects! Strategic and helpful tips! Wish it was in paperback!

  • Good info, annoying style-
Format: Kindle
The e book was OK but I personally prefer a hard copy, (easier for me to refer back to) but that option is not available as far as I know. I started out wanting the Tejon but the book helped me to decide on the Vaquero. There is a lot of information in the book and it is not a tough read, explanations and descriptions of techniques for MD use are pretty easy to grasp, but I haven't put them all to the test yet. The authors writing style was what I disliked most, repeatedly referencing upcoming sections/chapters of the book is annoying to me, but that is a personal gripe and may not bother other readers. Other than what I mentioned, I think that this book is a valuable resource for those considering either of these two Tesoro detectors. ... show more

  • Lots of useful information in this book!
Format: Kindle
I found 'Mastering the Tesoro Tejon and Vaquero' to have many unknown helpful tips and tricks that I anticipate applying to my Tesoro Outlaw which is similar to the Vaquero yet different. The authors knowledge is believable being backed by many hours in the field using both detectors. The book is written from a non-biased scientific point of view and pictures are used only when necessary to further illustrate his point. For around 100 pages and what I've learned I can definitely recommend the book. ... show more

  • Easy to learn, takes time to master
Format: Kindle
This book helps to shorten the learning curve for this (Tejon) very powerful, easy-to-use, but difficult to master detector. As a newer Tejon user, I definitely came away with a better understanding of my device and several tips that have already helped me locate silver that I otherwise would not have found. Great book for a very niche group! ... show more

Format: Kindle
I was expecting more information than I already knew - $10 a little steep for what I got, but not without some merit. If you were new to metal detecting, it would probably be more helpful.

  • Great read for anyone using the vaquero or tejon
Format: Kindle
Great read for anyone using the vaquero or tejon. Many tips and tricks on here that will apply not only to the beginning metal detector but also to the experienced. Very much worth the time and money spent and I do no very much worth the time and money spent.
