Deleon continues to impress with more silver

Dan 70 coins? holy crap , I have heard good things about that machine, thats a beaty silver ,
It's my favorite machine. I have a Tejon, but I can't put the Deleon down. I sold my Vaquero and Outlaw because, in my opinion, the Deleon is a better machine. It's just as deep as the Vaquero and beats the Outlaw easily. Of course, that's my experience, and my opinion. I'm not putting the other machines down, because they are good machines. It's just that for me, the Deleon is the best machine for my type of hunting.
dan b,
I am beginning to understand, the Deleon is working out real good for me too! I really like it for some of the places I hunted so far. I will be holding on to my other tesoro though because there are some places they just work so good at too. The only exception maybe I don't need the Silver anymore but heck for a back pack machine on the bike it can't hardly be beat, so may keep it. I am still learning the D but so far so good! Keep up the good work!

Dan , how's the Deleon on our "normal. Everyday " clad . I only hunt parks and schools for jewelry and clad , would you recommend the Deleon?
Our modern clad will always flash a 95 on the screen even if the numbers tend to settle more realistically on the crappy steel that they are made from. Surface loonies will sometimes sound like can slaw, so it's up to you whether to pursue that. If they are under the surface you are back to a 95 on the screen.
My general rule of thumb for coin shooting in Canada is to dig anything that flashes a 95 even just a couple times. Crappy zincs never do. More importantly, listen to the tone. Coins are smooth. Aluminum is harsh.
I've also dug 5 rings with my Deleon, 3 of them silver. Every one of them left me no doubt as to dig or not by their smooth tones. Remember, the Deleon is a Tesoro, so you want to make the audio your number one resource. Tesoro has the best audio out there, IMHO, so don't ignore it. Use the screen as a secondary tool if you feel like it.
The Deleon is a great machine, and probably one of the most underrated machines Tesoro makes. I've had a lot of Tesoros, and a lot of other detectors, but this Deleon of mine is by far my favorite ever. The Cazador is going to have to be one helluva machine to make me put down my Deleon.
