Leland, sorry the surprise wasn't as much as a surprise for you as everyone else since I asked you to help me ID it before the video went out. I want to thank you again for all the help you gave me and all the people you reached out to in order to further confirm the type/material. You've been an enormous help and great encouragement to me. When I hear someone like you is impressed with one of my finds it is humbling. Thanks again buddy!
@@ChristopherRyans I'll tell you what, trying to learn to identify points and materials has been a real challenge for me. I'm wrong more often than I'm right. I have a lot to learn, haha
That was an incredible video. And the enjoyment you got out of founding that Paleo point was truly infectious. I just love it when other people have great successes. I got a lot of enjoyment out of this video and looking forward to more. Take care, Jim in Louisville Thank you for sharing.
I thought the same thing. I know these tools were utilitarian but it's clear that these craftsman were very proud of their craft and surely appreciated the beauty in their work. Thanks for watching and commenting!
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTT!!! That is what keeps us going, walking, sweating, cussing in frustration, pounding the gravel bars week after week - just the off chance that at some moment we might walk up on something like THAT. Congratulations on an incredible Agate Basin!!
It TOTALLY is the best one. I knew immediately it was top 3 and then by the time I was home with it I really started to realize that I had something extra special. I'll prob never top it but you're right, I'm going to be chasing the dragon until I'm old and frail now. Lifer. Lord willin' and the creek don't rise, of course!
Wow!! Just an incredible Agate Basin! Size, shape, material, and craftsmanship! Find of a lifetime brother! Congrats to you for pushing through exhaustion. It was definitely rewarding! Thanks for sharing!
WOW!!!! That’s one of the best I’ve ever seen on here. Congrats on such an amazing find. You definitely have the eye for it. The fact that you saw that little bit and recognized it for what it was is awesome. Hats off to you sir!
Thank you Ray! I think it may be one of those points that I may never top. And if so, that's ok. Every time I walk past the display I have to stop and stare at it, haha. Thank you for watching and commenting
That's the part that gets me, Scott... is just knowing the age of the thing and how it survived at all! What a journey. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Awesome Paleo it’ll be hard to top!Most excellent fined! Made me excited watching you find it. Keep sending them videos very much Enjoy them. Good luck out there. Find some more!
You were a lucky man that day. That point at the end of the day is I believe a agate basin of the late Paleo period and is a beautiful point. It makes me remember my first Paleo piece, I was working on a farm and the owner cleared some new fields and I decided to hunt them for artifacts and I walked up on a Clovis site. I found 3 nice beautiful Clovis points and several Clovis knives and tools. I have never found anything like that since and I doubt I ever will. 3 Clovis points and a pocket full of Clovis tools in one day will be hard to beat. I still have every piece in one frame telling where I found them. I have been offered several thousand dollars for the frame but keep turning it down. No amount of money is worth the best hunt I have ever had
Absolutely once in a lifetime fine sir. Congratulations . They say there's less than 10000 Clovis out there That have been found. This is very similar and from near the same time period so it's almost as rare
Thank you! I think that's my favorite aspect of arrowhead hunting. I love to think about the age of the points. The older they are the more excited I am about them.
@@meandmyshadow6269 I found my first point when I was 13, a Gary. I really got into hunting and collecting when I was 27 and have been ever since. I just turned 60 and that's one of the nicest Agate Basin points I've seen from Oklahoma. Certainly better than the 2 I found over the years, one near Vian and the other at Ponca City.
@@rodneyblount4303 I've been humbled time and time again by people's hunts on that agate basin I found and your comment is another one of those. Thank you very much! I really got something special that day. I may have asked you this already but I'm assuming you still live in Oklahoma?
And the Lord works in mysterious ways too, doesn't He? I was basically done with my hunt when I found it and more or less spotted it by accident. Thanks for watching, Rusty!
Lol, the new glasses really have played a big role in helping me see things better on the river. I'm sure glad I have someone that cares enough about me that they'd buy me new glasses as a birthday gift!❤❤❤
Lol, I first read this comment this morning before work and the pee pants part cracked me up even though I had just woken up. Believe me, I almost did pee mine, haha! And yes, it is indeed an agate basin. Thanks for watching and commenting!
,Wow, wow, wow, auuuuuuuu incredible beauty of that find my friend, it's nice that those pieces don't stay there in oblivion. God sent you there to find her, only you belong. It was very difficult to see and you still located it. Congratulations and may many of these continue.
Coyote, it was a miracle I found it. I give God the credit! You find incredible artifacts so it feels great to hear how impressed you are by my find. Thank you for watching and commenting and good luck to you!
Wow. Simply stunning! I rarely get SUPER jealous watching point pulls bc I have pulled some pretty awesome stuff myself... but this is like hitting the friggin artifact hunters LOTTERY! Good for you brother. You will have an awesome story and a BEAUTIFUL blade to hand down to your children one day, cherish it well! God bless!
Thank you, Lizzy! I don't think I'll ever get over finding that thing. I prob won't ever find a better one, haha! Glad you enjoy my cheesy humor. I love being a goober!
Brother, it was 100% meant to be. It was basically an accident find. I was totally exhausted and basically just happened to catch my eye when I was in full zombie mode. When I hear guys like you and Leland tell me it's a true killer then I know I must have found something legit. I can't believe I found it. Lost In Time, thanks much for stopping by and watching! Hope you're having some good luck out there too!
Wow!!! God is good ain’t He brother??!! What an awesome day of hunting!! Love the assortment of awesomeness but I gotta say…..that agate basin is just exquisite!! Everything about it just screams “LOOK AT ME!!!” Without a doubt made by a true master knapper!! Huge congrats to you my friend and I wish you many more blessings just like this!! 👍🏻😎
God IS good! I am so blessed to have found it and I will NEVER forget that day. I may never top it again and that's okay if I don't. I'm happy with what I got. BTW, I love you guys' videos and Heartbreaker Relics' channels. You guys find some amazing artifacts and I've learned a lot from watching both of your channels. Love you guys' brotherhood too. Great bunch of guys. Good luck to all of you and happy hunting!
Sim, thank you for that. I'm humbled to hear all of these comments. I knew I had something great when I found it but after all the feedback from everyone here I have really come to understand how special that find is. All I can say is that the good Lord really smiled down on me that day. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@meandmyshadow6269 Sure hope you're right! I'm in rural Michigan and most of my hunting is done walking the fields. I can't wait for the ground to thaw. I should try my hand at walking some of the rivers and creeks though. Switch it up a bit. 😊
Thank you, Jamie! I've been incredibly blessed as a beginner to arrowhead hunting. I'm sure the luck won't hold out forever but I'll take it when I can get it! Appreciate all of your views and comments.
Thank you Eron! I consider myself so fortunate to have found it. Compared to a lot of you guys I'm a beginner at this so I know there is that element of beginners luck for sure! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Ok Ed Bassmaster sometimes you just gotta “Look at it”😂 I hadn’t got all the way through the video but I wanted to write this so you could look at it!!! 😁 welcome to the wet boot club, I had to run after my boat that was taking off down river and wade out above my knees to retrieve it!😂
Dang brother I just finished the video, WOW that piece is absolutely awesome! I’d love to see a clean up video under a good lighting source and I also bet that piece is partially Translucent if you held it up to a bright light! I’d love to see that as well, welcome to the Paleo club you deserve it and thanks for the shout out to our father. That was as awesome as the arrowhead!!!
Lol, you are the only one so far that got that reference! Or at least the only one who commented on it. Glad to know we got some other Ed Bassmaster fans in the mix!
@@RESURRECTINGRELICS Absolutely, I couldn't be out there doing my thing without the Lord giving me good health and the opportunity to be out in His creation. At the veeery end of the video there is a picture where I'm holding it up to the sky and you can see some of the translucence around the edges, although the picture is kind of dark otherwise. I may do a separate video with some better lighting to really show it off. If any of my arrowheads deserve their own video it would definitely be this one!
@@meandmyshadow6269 his Farting video crack me up and the one where him and Jack Vale go to the parent teacher conference with him dressed as tequila cracks me up as well. And don’t forget to look at that car!😂
Came across this video of yours searching for artifacts. Back in the days searching myself with friends, which we called it, Yawking, in an old village site. Whenever I found an artifact I bowed in the four directions and in honor to the ones who created these works of art I would say, "Where your thumb once was, mine is now ". That Agate Basin Paleo point brought me to my knees as well!! Congrats man! It was too bad that old village site we searched at was used as a motor x track. I considered finding those artifacts as saving them from destruction. To the river my friend and happy hunting. 😀👍👣🛶🧭
@@michaellewis81 I think it's nice to have a little ritual for a find as well. I'm glad to hear others do too! Yes, I also believe that each one found is one that's been rescued and can be given a place where people can marvel at it and discuss it and consider the hands that made it. Thanks for watching and thanks for the thoughtful comment!
I just now found your channel today thanks to TH-cam recommending it. I see that you’ve only had a channel for less than a year but I don’t know how you only have 400 subs! Excellent finds! I really wish I had an area like this where I live. I’d be out there staring at the ground every chance I got!
Puffin, first of all thank you for the kind words! Secondly, don't get discouraged. Wherever you are I can almost guarantee you there is some kind of adventuring/treasure hunting that you could find to get into. Artifacts, fossils, bottles, marbles, magnet fishing, metal detecting, antiquing, etc....there's bound to be something for you out there! Oddly enough, until about 3 years ago when I started arrowhead hunting I also thought that there wasn't anything like this in my area. I always wanted to find arrowheads but I never bothered looking because I just assumed there wasn't much of it where I live...but I was very wrong. Thanks again for the kind words and for watching and commenting!
Just came upon your channel. You definitely have my subscription. Love your enthusiasm and narration. I felt like I was right along the explore. God bless👍🙏❤️
Killer piece. Beautiful material that believe is Frisco. And the working is sick. Congratulations brother you put your time in for it and persistence and patience paid off. Simply a chocker Agate Basin.👍👍👍👊
Thank you for the kind words, Sonny! It's one of a kind. I'll never forget that moment. And you are correct, Leland Shanks confirmed for me that it is indeed an Agate Basin made from patenated Frisco chert.
@@meandmyshadow6269 I was pretty sure it was Frisco. And if a man could bottle that feeling when you find a absolute stellar price like that no one would need drugs and alcohol. I commend you for giving God the glory . Because not a lot of TH-camrs do that. I feel the same way about our Lord and Savior.👍👍👍👍👊👊👊🇺🇸
@@sonnypate6808 Amen to that, my friend! Sonny, I want to apologize for how long it takes me to respond to your comments. You and a few other youtubers CONSTANTLY get targeted by youtube for some reason as possible spammers and they hide your comments and put them in the youtube studio waiting approval section and I don't check that spot very often. It's totally random but some of you get put there more than others. I'm trying to get better at checking that spot. When I first started this account it happened to me as well for a couple months. Sometimes I WILL get your comments in my video sections but it won't give me a notification. It's very frustrating. TH-cam's ridiculous algorithm police need to be deactivated. Anyways, thank you for your support!
13:44 really freaking cool, Garys and very similar varieties are very common types to find in OK. I found a site next to a creek somewhere in Central OK and noticed that a large majority of the pieces were made with percussion mainly, and this one that you picked up looks exactly like the ones I've been pulling out of the Gary site. Don't know why they stuck to mainly using percussion to make them, but it leads to quite a hunky piece that has this odd yet prominent midline where the flakes meet in the center.
That's so cool. I wonder if maybe they just got really good at knocking out the basic shape really quickly and found that it was effective just as it was so they just stuck with the method. Thanks for watching and commenting!
That was definitely an awesome day. That Agate Basin is KTM for sure 👍 You cracked me up with the dance moves 🤣 but I didn't see the garter that Mr New saw lol. WEIRD 😳
It very well could have been! Sometimes I'm not sure so I just throw it back. Have to be selective because I am already filling my house to the brim with rocks, haha. Thanks Bryan!
Dude.it was an artifact of badass greatness.not to be chunked back into the river.check out about 19:34 in the video.2 inches to the left of the broken super head point.there is 2 half drilled holes in a line one above the other.with ornate looking manmade curves above the holes and around the edges.its brown like a piece of pottery.might of been a bannerstone effigy are artifact of some sort.
@@ericgriffinthefirst I know brother I saw a shadow box worth of stuff he didn't pick up, like that pottery. Man I make some badass displays with pieces of pottery chards.😂 I think he's into fossils more than artifacts but he's still learning and he's got a good attitude. I'm sure he will recognize things better as he learns more and develops that eagle eye needed to find these relics.
What a great video !!! Seems to me most of what you found was Paleo. I believe even the thick Stemmed point is Trans. Paleo. Also it is a proven fact Native Americans made beads out of Crinoids. What an amazing day you had. Thank you for sharing this adventure and bringing some joy to this old man today. Happy hunting and many blessings.
Thank you as always Kevin! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video. It was a day for the record books, no doubt. I believe you are right about the age of the artifacts from that spot. A lot of the stuff there appears to be quite old. I know other people who hunt there and know the spot well and they say it frequently produces the old stuff. Thanks again!
Watched it when ya first found it, had to personally congratulate ya , guessing it will be in your top ten for many years to come, beautiful example, keep on em😎😎😎
Thank you for the congrats, GBM. I really appreciate that. Yes, I think it will be very hard to top that point for a very long time. I'll be chasing that high for a long time, haha. Even if I never top it I can live with that. Thanks for watching again and commenting, sir!
Can you believe that?! I'd really love to take you out to that spot because I KNOW you would find something. I've not been to that spot without finding at least one arrowhead.
Beautiful point. Congrats on the find. I am in northeast TN, lots of campsites within 15 minutes of where I live. I have traded with and talked to quite a few of the old-time artifact hunters. I have personal pictures of myself with Art Gerber and Don Ham and own a few of their finds as well.
Tracy, thanks for watching and commenting! Sorry it took me so long to reply, youtube hid your comment in an awaiting approval section and I rarely check that tab. It does it at random. Don't know why. Thanks again!
The arrowhead you found was the rarest arrowhead and is called a CLOVIS POINT and only about 10,000 have beeen found, so great job on the find! CONGRATZ!
I am with you on the bank walking. I prefer it too but unfortunately my best spot is an island, haha! Going down stream to it is a breeze but some days when the water is up that paddle back up stream nearly a mile can just about make me want to give up the ghost, haha. Thanks for watching and commenting, James!
Wow! Smoker Agate Basin/ Packard complex. I got some backup opinion on it, made of heavily patinated Frisco chert.
Leland, sorry the surprise wasn't as much as a surprise for you as everyone else since I asked you to help me ID it before the video went out. I want to thank you again for all the help you gave me and all the people you reached out to in order to further confirm the type/material. You've been an enormous help and great encouragement to me.

I'm still learning the different flakes types From 1st glance I thought it was a Cody complex but it's definitely paleo one million percent

When you washed it off and its sitting in your hand it is like looking at great ART.

I’d love to see that as well, welcome to the Paleo club you deserve it and thanks for the shout out to our father. That was as awesome as the arrowhead!!!
Lol, you are the only one so far that got that reference! Or at least the only one who commented on it. Glad to know we got some other Ed Bassmaster fans in the mix!
@@RESURRECTINGRELICS Absolutely, I couldn't be out there doing my thing without the Lord giving me good health and the opportunity to be out in His creation. At the veeery end of the video there is a picture where I'm holding it up to the sky and you can see some of the translucence around the edges, although the picture is kind of dark otherwise. I may do a separate video with some better lighting to really show it off. If any of my arrowheads deserve their own video it would definitely be this one!
@@meandmyshadow6269 his Farting video crack me up and the one where him and Jack Vale go to the parent teacher conference with him dressed as tequila cracks me up as well. And don’t forget to look at that car!😂
@@meandmyshadow6269 good Man👍
Congrats on your find. What a satisfying day. A great day out in nature and a find like that.
It was a great day, indeed! Thank you
Awesome video thanks for sharing
Came across this video of yours searching for artifacts. Back in the days searching myself with friends, which we called it, Yawking, in an old village site. Whenever I found an artifact I bowed in the four directions and in honor to the ones who created these works of art I would say, "Where your thumb once was, mine is now ".
That Agate Basin Paleo point brought me to my knees as well!! Congrats man! It was too bad that old village site we searched at was used as a motor x track. I considered finding those artifacts as saving them from destruction. To the river my friend and happy hunting. 😀👍👣🛶🧭
@@michaellewis81 I think it's nice to have a little ritual for a find as well. I'm glad to hear others do too! Yes, I also believe that each one found is one that's been rescued and can be given a place where people can marvel at it and discuss it and consider the hands that made it. Thanks for watching and thanks for the thoughtful comment!
Super jealous! That’s awesome congrats man! Beautiful find!
Much appreciated, Logan. Thank you for watching and commenting!
What a point man. Awesome!!!
@@thornehauser9511 many thanks! It's still one of my best points i've ever found. Top 3 for sure.
Really great find, I gotta get down south sometime
Thank you! Good luck and happy hunting!
Amazing! Loved watching you find that!
I'm glad to hear you enjoyed watching that, Tina! Thanks for the kind words!
I just now found your channel today thanks to TH-cam recommending it. I see that you’ve only had a channel for less than a year but I don’t know how you only have 400 subs! Excellent finds! I really wish I had an area like this where I live. I’d be out there staring at the ground every chance I got!
Puffin, first of all thank you for the kind words! Secondly, don't get discouraged. Wherever you are I can almost guarantee you there is some kind of adventuring/treasure hunting that you could find to get into. Artifacts, fossils, bottles, marbles, magnet fishing, metal detecting, antiquing, etc....there's bound to be something for you out there! Oddly enough, until about 3 years ago when I started arrowhead hunting I also thought that there wasn't anything like this in my area. I always wanted to find arrowheads but I never bothered looking because I just assumed there wasn't much of it where I live...but I was very wrong. Thanks again for the kind words and for watching and commenting!
Just came upon your channel. You definitely have my subscription. Love your enthusiasm and narration. I felt like I was right along the explore. God bless👍🙏❤️
I really am glad to hear that, thank you for the kind words and for subbing!
Congratulations! We were having dinner with your parents when your text and photos came through about your find. So exciting!!!
You got the special sneak peek! Thank you Granthams for stopping by to watch and comment! Hope you are all well!
Love Agate Basins...one of my favorites...congrats
It's Beautiful, that material is too. don't know if I've already commented, but man that's a work of art. Bol out there man, God bless y'all too
Killer piece. Beautiful material that believe is Frisco. And the working is sick. Congratulations brother you put your time in for it and persistence and patience paid off. Simply a chocker Agate Basin.👍👍👍👊
Thank you for the kind words, Sonny! It's one of a kind. I'll never forget that moment. And you are correct, Leland Shanks confirmed for me that it is indeed an Agate Basin made from patenated Frisco chert.
@@meandmyshadow6269 I was pretty sure it was Frisco. And if a man could bottle that feeling when you find a absolute stellar price like that no one would need drugs and alcohol. I commend you for giving God the glory . Because not a lot of TH-camrs do that. I feel the same way about our Lord and Savior.👍👍👍👍👊👊👊🇺🇸
@@sonnypate6808 Amen to that, my friend! Sonny, I want to apologize for how long it takes me to respond to your comments. You and a few other youtubers CONSTANTLY get targeted by youtube for some reason as possible spammers and they hide your comments and put them in the youtube studio waiting approval section and I don't check that spot very often. It's totally random but some of you get put there more than others. I'm trying to get better at checking that spot. When I first started this account it happened to me as well for a couple months. Sometimes I WILL get your comments in my video sections but it won't give me a notification. It's very frustrating. TH-cam's ridiculous algorithm police need to be deactivated. Anyways, thank you for your support!
Nice Agate Basin and material!!!
Very cool finds!
Thank you!
Great Find!!! Congratz!!
Thank you! Appreciate you watching and commenting!
Congratulations on your Killer, Smoker, Shaker👍👍
Lol, Thank you!
Really nice Paleo lance. Awesome find
Thank you, Place! It's definitely my best ever
What a Killer Agate Basin. Congratulations !!!
Thanks Gary! Thanks for watching and commenting!
13:44 really freaking cool, Garys and very similar varieties are very common types to find in OK. I found a site next to a creek somewhere in Central OK and noticed that a large majority of the pieces were made with percussion mainly, and this one that you picked up looks exactly like the ones I've been pulling out of the Gary site. Don't know why they stuck to mainly using percussion to make them, but it leads to quite a hunky piece that has this odd yet prominent midline where the flakes meet in the center.
That's so cool. I wonder if maybe they just got really good at knocking out the basic shape really quickly and found that it was effective just as it was so they just stuck with the method. Thanks for watching and commenting!
WOW! That is incredible!
Thank you, Paul!
That was definitely an awesome day.
That Agate Basin is KTM for sure 👍
You cracked me up with the dance moves 🤣 but I didn't see the garter that Mr New saw lol. WEIRD 😳
Lolol! Thank you Larry! It blew me away!
Congrats on an amazing piece of history and well made. He blesses us when we need it.
Thank you, and amen to that!
At 3:40 there is an arrowhead in the bottom left corner of the screen. It’s light grey and is pointing toward the right
Could be!
Way to go, nice eyes to spot that. What a fantastic find congratulations young man.
Your persistence paid off !
Thank you, Doug! I really can't believe I stumbled onto that one. Eyes caught it at just the right angle I guess. Thanks for watching!
Before the first big bone, that big piece of chert looked alot like a big Wahler blade or knife.
It very well could have been! Sometimes I'm not sure so I just throw it back. Have to be selective because I am already filling my house to the brim with rocks, haha. Thanks Bryan!
Dude.it was an artifact of badass greatness.not to be chunked back into the river.check out about 19:34 in the video.2 inches to the left of the broken super head point.there is 2 half drilled holes in a line one above the other.with ornate looking manmade curves above the holes and around the edges.its brown like a piece of pottery.might of been a bannerstone effigy are artifact of some sort.
@@ericgriffinthefirst I know brother I saw a shadow box worth of stuff he didn't pick up, like that pottery. Man I make some badass displays with pieces of pottery chards.😂 I think he's into fossils more than artifacts but he's still learning and he's got a good attitude. I'm sure he will recognize things better as he learns more and develops that eagle eye needed to find these relics.
What a great video !!! Seems to me most of what you found was Paleo. I believe even the thick Stemmed point is Trans. Paleo. Also it is a proven fact Native Americans made beads out of Crinoids. What an amazing day you had. Thank you for sharing this adventure and bringing some joy to this old man today. Happy hunting and many blessings.
It really was a great day he had. There is a place not far from me, Parkhill, Ont., that is said to have been a collecting spot for crinoid beads.
That's a fact about the Crinoid beads. I've found them with designs made in them. And polished like crazy.👍👊
Thank you as always Kevin! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video. It was a day for the record books, no doubt. I believe you are right about the age of the artifacts from that spot. A lot of the stuff there appears to be quite old. I know other people who hunt there and know the spot well and they say it frequently produces the old stuff. Thanks again!
p.s. glad to hear so many confirmations in this thread about the crinoid beads!
Definitely amazing!!! Makes it all worth it, even filling your boot with water! Lol. We all been there
Lol, yeah after I found that point I didn't even think about my soggy foot again until I was home
Congrats!!
That's a smoker great find 👍 👍👍
Watched it when ya first found it, had to personally congratulate ya , guessing it will be in your top ten for many years to come, beautiful example, keep on em😎😎😎
Thank you for the congrats, GBM. I really appreciate that. Yes, I think it will be very hard to top that point for a very long time. I'll be chasing that high for a long time, haha. Even if I never top it I can live with that. Thanks for watching again and commenting, sir!
OMG dude! What a day that was! Congrats on that last find. I can't wait to see it in person!
Can you believe that?! I'd really love to take you out to that spot because I KNOW you would find something. I've not been to that spot without finding at least one arrowhead.
Holy crap man! Fantastic find
Fantastic find. Beautiful Paleo G-10 possibly. Nice example of what the shape and flaking should be.
Congrats!
❤ Amazing Arrowhead !
Beautiful workmanship on that point. Great find!
Definitely a master craftsman was behind that point! Thank you for watching and commenting, J!
Great video as always😀
Thanks Raw!
Beautiful point. Congrats on the find. I am in northeast TN, lots of campsites within 15 minutes of where I live. I have traded with and talked to quite a few of the old-time artifact hunters. I have personal pictures of myself with Art Gerber and Don Ham and own a few of their finds as well.
Awesome find!!
Appreciate it!
Outstanding find!
I'd be tingling too :)
I probably would have had a heart attack and croaked right there. LOL
@@kevinkline6835 same, or maybe a brain stroke
@@Ontario_Rockhound The only whole Paleo point I have is a Agate basin made out of red agate but it's not as nice as this one.
@@kevinkline6835 My heart would definitely be pounding, lol.
@@Ontario_Rockhound lol, take care of that noggin!
Wow! Congrats bro! That's what I'm talking about!! It can't get any better than that imo.
Thank you, Big Ben! It's definitely my best piece ever so far. It will be hard to top that one!
looks like a Lance head to me! I found one with a broken tip near yosemite..great find!
Yep, it's a laceolate point for sure! Congrats on yours as well! Thank you for watching!
Nice find I love Arrowhead hunting good hobby
Tracy, thanks for watching and commenting! Sorry it took me so long to reply, youtube hid your comment in an awaiting approval section and I rarely check that tab. It does it at random. Don't know why. Thanks again!
You hit the Lottery!! Museum grade, maybe.
I really did! I was so fortunate to have found it. I'll probably never find one like that again!
@@meandmyshadow6269 Never say never, I've been hunting since I was 8 years old 65 now! Just keep hunting!!
The arrowhead you found was the rarest arrowhead and is called a CLOVIS POINT and only about 10,000 have beeen found, so great job on the find! CONGRATZ!
Thank you Florence! It's awe-inspiring to be the first one to touch an artifact in 10,000 years!
I believe it looks more like a Angostura and at least a G8. Very nice find!
Thanks! I'll check it out
Here in Mississippi, when the damned up reservoirs run low, you can find sweet spots like that. I like to walk the banks, not so much paddling
I am with you on the bank walking. I prefer it too but unfortunately my best spot is an island, haha! Going down stream to it is a breeze but some days when the water is up that paddle back up stream nearly a mile can just about make me want to give up the ghost, haha. Thanks for watching and commenting, James!
