Bought a new Vaquero. Can't wait for it to arrive. Really wanted to get a Compadre, but our soil is often red clay here in NC so I figured I needed ground balancing.
Just joined the Tesoro club

Congrats on your new Vaquero! I just rejoined the Tesoro club with a Silver uMax I picked up used for days I want a lightweight machine for an old school coin shoot and not worry about a screen. Kind of gives me the same feeling as shooting a recurve bow with fingers.

Congrats, you will really enjoy the Tesoro products and find them very easy to use. The Vaq is a very capable machine, bring a shovel.
A little inside joke , happy "Quacking" !! They should have named the Vaquero the "Tesoro Duck".

I too am joining the Tesoro club!
Ive been using a GTI 1500, with more bells and whistles than one could ask for, but I really want to go the opposite direction and go for simplicity. I am going with the Compadre w/8" coil. I'm really excited about it. Seems like a very nice little scorcher.
