OK, you lost me. Why would anyone read a book about mastering a couple detectors they don't use?

After reading the book there's a very good chance that you'll want to own a Tejon or Vaquero. This very well written informative book could cause a shortage.

People who have already read the book know what I'm talking about. Just do your very best to resist the urge to read the book. How hard could that be?

All right, I get it now.

I've had a Tejon and the Vaq's cousin the Cibola in the past, so I'll manage to resist the urge and not contribute to any potential shortage...

Don't get me wrong, I think the Tejon is a fine detector, ergonomically excellent, and has some nice depth as well. Best machine on nickels I ever used. The double discrimination also gives it an advantage in my book over other single tone VDI-less Tesoro detectors.

I'm not trying to start an argument because I don't think there's any right or wrong. It's just my personal preference that I prefer a detector with tones and VDI.

Marcomo, I like tones and VDI, but this book is a real eyeopener for me. I really wasn't using my Tejon to its fullest potential and I'm really having a blast applying what I have learned from this book. For those who have never used a Tesoro, this book may be a real eyeopener for them as well. The book really goes into depth the differences and advantages of a single tone detector vs a multi-tone /VDI detector and the advantages of analog over digital.

Here are couple links where the book is being discussed: http://www.findmall.com/read.php?17,2049685

The folks at Tesoro are good people and their service department can't be beat.

If this book (and maybe even this thread) gets them a few more sales then that's excellent.

I agree.

If you are already using a Tesoro the information in this book will enhance your hunting greatly. Even if you don't own a Tesoro, the book is full of great info that could help anyone. If you are thinking about jumping on the Tesoro bandwagon, this book will make the decision easier.

In the end each will use what they think works best for them.

Bigelow, everyone is entitled to their opinion. There's some stuff in the book that I already knew, but there's tips and info in the book that was enlightening for me.

Someone else posted about the book first. I just past on the info because I think it's worth sharing. You may know it all and the book my be a waste of your time.

bigelow, tabman is far from the only one singing the praises of this book.

I know sometimes people who post have agendas, but questioning the integrity of a prolific longtime forum contributor like tabman isn't good form. I'd give you some really long odds that he is not profiting from the sale of this book.

Once you've been on the forum for a while, you'll realize that effervescent praise for a detector or detecting related item is usually a matter of wanting to share excitement with others who love the hobby, and has nothing to do with personal financial gain.

Fair enough but I have seen it spammed in many forums recently, with the same exact title. I am definitely not a know it all, but I know also that just because you have been a member of a forum before another person, does not make you almighty king of knowledge. Maybe I have been a member of other forums longer than you or Tabman, but it makes me no better or more knowledgeable. Long story short, I did not research and see how long he was here and single him out, I really don't care about how long anyone has been here, just thought it seemed spammy.

I appreciate Tabmans efforts to share info, apparently I was wrong on my judgement. My apologies.

 

[marcomo]

I've got no disagreement with what you're saying about length of time on forums. But when you've read somebody's posts for several years it does give you some insight into that person's thoughts.

I don't know tabman personally and, to the best of my knowledge, I've never corresponded with him. But from reading his posts over the years, he does seem like a person of integrity to me.

And what do you have against spam, anyway? Me, I love it. I'll have spam, spam, spam, baked beans, spam...

[size=x-large]So please...no more posts like that..or they too will be deleted....

Many get excited about detecting and want to share their experiences. That is why the forum is here....[/size]

 

[bigelow]

really? I got reprimanded for posting an amazon link(accidentally) asking about a detector, I was accused by admins of trying to sale it. I guess the rules are drawn on a fine line. Anyhow I apologized in case you dint read it, above.

While this book is intended primarily for certain Tesoro detectors (read the title), it has info that could be useful to anyone. Tabman does have and uses many Tesoro detectors, he also uses other brands. Probably some of the best detecting advice I have gotten off this forum has come from Tabman and some others with their great level of dedication to the hobby. I can assure you that Tabman is not profiting or has nothing to do with the book. If you read it you will see it originated from and is sold by NJ Minerals. You can google them and find them at their dot org address. I was one of the first to bring this book up on the forum because after reading it I though it was terrific. The author of this book also use an E-trac. I don't view Tabmans post as spam. It is just an interesting post to spark your curiosity.

 

[tabman]

Those who have read the book are enlighten and those who have not are still in the dark.

Lots of good info for all users. Everyone so far who has read the book is giving it a big thumps up.

Thanks Rainyday101 for letting us know about the book. It was a good read!
