PERFECTION LAST ONE...🏆🏅
YOUR SPIRIT GIFTS 🎁💛✨☺💕
I need more spirit gifts! Haha nah just kidding… I know I’m spoiled, so I feel bad even joking about wanting more! Haha
Wow 2 drills a indian head penny and a dove tail. Great finds, enjoyed, thanks. River here is up way too much to get out. Good hunting.
I always like to throw in the random modern finds as well! I’ve found a few good coins lately. Drills are always an added bonus as well! But you know when that river is a raging, it’s just uncovering all sorts of goodies! Be ready when it goes down! Haha thanks for checking out the new round of finds buddy!
Yea cant wait for the water to drop. Go out with my buddy from Bluegrass Relics on the Ohio
I know I say it every time, but it still blows my mind that hundreds or even thousands of people in the same tribe could make the same exact point for hundreds of years without changing it up. like it was against the law to deviate from the design by even a little bit. If you held my Dovetail and your Dovetail in your hand, the only way to tell them apart is the material. Like the same guy, or even a machine made them both. Mind boggling. Killer finds, bro
You know they were just stamping them out in the factory! Just placed their order of how many, and what material, and they arrived at their wigwam door in 2-3 hunting days. 🤣 But it is odd though man. Maybe there was some sort of religious or superstitious aspect that kept them being made so similarly?
@@Points365 I often wonder if these weren't all made by the same guy? Maybe one dude just sat around all day making Dovetails to sell to all the other Indians... dunno? but you have to admit it seems really odd there are so many exactly the same. If I taught you how to make a Dovetail, and you taught your son, do you think his great, great grandson would make the same exact Dovetail? not likely.
I think you are correct, against the law to change the design. They also used certain colours on darts or arrow shafts. The shape of a point is a signature of who we are. A different style point being found would show that another tribe is hunting our land. Probably not unlike fashion. Things change over years, but most youth adopt the new fashion as they mature or as elders pass. As technology got better new points and weapons developed. Probably comes under the title "Culture"
Hate to jump in on this conversation but the style of dovetail 365 finds is much different than the ones I’ve found and both styles are coming from middle Tennessee. There are tons of variations throughout time especially when a point type spans many hundreds if not a thousand years. There’s classic doves, button doves, clipped wing doves, split base doves and that’s just to name a few. Also there’s plenty of crossover’s like the hardove/southern hardin. Yes when you hunt the same sites over and over you’ll obviously find one “style” more than the other but don’t think there’s anything to it other than the maker/time/and location. They spanned so much time because their extremely utilitarian and of course there’s plenty of variations/evolution going on. Just my two cents and not trying to be a know it all or contradict anyone. All great observations and honestly it is mind blowing to see. Great video 365 as always! I’d wish you luck but God blesses you more than he should haha. Take care boys and again thanks for sharing these amazing pieces of history with us brother.
@@T.J-and-Soul You realize these Dovetail points span 300 to 500 years, right? Across 11 states or more. That's roughly 1/3 the size of Australia. Made of hundreds of different types of flint with every *color of the rainbow. Some or most are so similar, they have the same number of flakes. Just to give you some scope and perspective.
Amazing finds....love it
Thanks man! I appreciate you coming back to check out the new round of finds!
Nice finds thanks for sharing
Thanks man, and it’s a pleasure! I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!
Always look forward to a new post you have the best spot of anybody
Thanks buddy, I appreciate it and appreciate you coming back to check out the new round of finds!
Love the Indian penny and ALL the drills!
Man, don't your fingers hurt yet from picking up all those SMOKERS? Magnificent saves 👏, you're killing it 🏹
Nice Pine and a beautiful Dovetail! The work in it was very nice👍👍👍
Gosh, Brother 💥 !!! What an awesome group of finds !!✌️🍀
Thanks man! You know how it goes.. you’re either on it or you’re not. Lately I’ve been on a roll! Thanks for checking out the new round of finds!
@@Points365
Any time brother ✌ 🍀
Great points Smiley.Good to see you on more often.Cant wait for your next video.Keep up the good work.
At about the 5:00 minute mark even the Red Shoulder Hawk agrees that you are on fire.
Killing it brother. ROCK ON.👍👍💤
Thanks man, I appreciate it! Thanks for taking the time to check it out as well!
Wow!!! Stunning 🎉
Always like seeing your notification pop up, and as usual you added some awesome stuff to your collection!! Like them all but Dovetails are my favorite, you can see that thing is ground smooth and a perfect example of one! Good luck!
That basal grinding, though! Nice camera work.
Thanks man, I appreciate it! I hear ya on the dovetails though. I have a soft spot for them myself, but that my be because I don’t seem to find that many! We always want more of what we don’t have you know! It’s like those spoiled people north of us that seem to find grooved axes and celts under every log they turn over. Down here in TN… man I’d be excited to just find a broken one! Haha thanks again though buddy and hope this spring is good to you out there!
Beautiful point .
Thanks buddy, I appreciate you checking it out!
JUST AMAZING that first one waiting for U🤪👍💛💫
Oh I know! The day I found it, it was toward the end of a long and fruitless hunt. I was convinced that I was destined to return home empty handed that day… then just as I was walking along, dragging my feet in defeat no doubt, there that lost lake laid… as if it were a pity gift from the good Lord! Haha thanks again and as always for checking it out!
@@Points365 GOOD KARMA letting the TRUTH BE KNOWN....
MORE 🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🤣😂😃🤩😍🥰😇
Beautiful Dovetail!!
Nice finds👍
Thanks man, I appreciate you taking the time to check it out!
As usual again great finds. Liked that lost lake at the beginning. That is a site I would wear out. Have great eyes on that drill. Woulda stepped right over it. That penny just awesome. Keep looking and be safe.
Always enjoy your videos more killer finds congrats 👍👍
Dovetail is saweeeeeet, others also beautiful congratulations
Awesome finds , and I imagine the dovetail point was made exactly the same way for so long because why change perfection..
Thanks! Haha but I feel ya on the dovetail! They are awfully appealing to the eye. But then again if I had the ability to create something sharp and pointy out of stone, I’d think everything I created was a work of art! Haha thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Congratulations on all your awesome finds!! That penny was so sweet. The hafted axe was beautiful as was the drilled! I liked the side notch they are found were I live. Your Dovetail was amazing. I always enjoy your videos! Happy hunting.
Talk about ground round WOW Dove is on my personal bucket list 🙂
I hear ya man… Doves are still on my bucket list! Haha ya know, since no 2 are alike and all. It’s like hot wheels.. I just wanted them all!
Man it looks like gold in the LL drill love the rhomboid cross section kill shot! Love your videos too. GL AND HH
Thanks man! But you and me thought the same thing! When I rewatched the video I though it had a gold look to it as well… I had to go take that thing off the shelf and look it over again! Much to my dismay… no gold. The fossilized remains it it was an interesting addition to the piece though!
Insane again!!! Incredible saves!!! Beveled killers, drills in the water, doves at the waters edge, smokers laying flat out, flint axes!! I’d be going nuts if I were you finding those things!! I don’t know how you keep your composure.. lol. Great great footage as always saving history!!!
Thanks buddy! Oh and I was going nuts on the inside finding those finds! I’ve gotta keep my composure to keep the videos steady and clear ya know! Haha thanks as always for checking it out!
Awesome man just awesome, finding those ones like that make all the time spent worth it......i still wanna see a collection vid my friend. Thanks for sharing, happy huntin
You did very well - they are all very nice relics!
Thanks buddy I appreciate it! Thanks for taking the time to check it out!
Very cool 😎 !!!
Awesome Recovery’s
wow killer stuff ! loved the little Indian head penny too and it must of rolled right out the bank fresh since it’s green
Man, you got some real QUALITY on these last couple outings! Always love your videos!
Thanks as always buddy! I appreciate you always taking the time to watch and comment!
Killer finds as always my friend! But I really wish you would invite me to come up and help you find and load up all those great points and relics that you find! I promise I wouldn’t tell a sole! LOL!!!! Always enjoy your videos and the amazing relics and artifacts that you find. Congrats! See you on the next one. Hope you get a kick out of that!
Haha a kick I got indeed! Knowing that if I did invite you, the sad reality that’s 7/10 I come home after almost 12 hours of hunting empty handed! Haha Every time I invite someone with me that’s how it goes. I always hate seeing their initial excitement diminish with each passing hour, fruitlessly spent tromping through deep mud and sticker bushes! Lol I always try and give them a fair warning though! Thanks for the good laugh and for taking the time to check out the new round of finds!
Killer pieces a lot of re-worked re-purposed stuff. The Dovetail is awesome. It almost had pentagonal lworking near the tip very interesting and unusual. Fantastic video ,but I've never seen any of yours that weren't.👍♋
Thanks so much! You know how it goes in artifact hunting though.. 9 times out of 10 what you find you can only imagine what it looked like whole! For time constraints, I only show the more fantastic finds, as few and far between as they may be! Thanks again for coming back to check out the new round of finds!
That last drill is a stellar find my friend. Keep on em man. Good luck to ya. 💪🙏
Nice artifacts the Dove is a killer👍🏻
Thanks man! It’s for sure one of my best doves found so far. The 3rd one within the last year or less from that particular spot. Hoping it keeps spitting them out! Haha
@@Points365 👍🏻
What a killer Dovetail you found. Awesome!
Thanks buddy, I appreciate you checking it out!
OUTstanding! Good for you. Some very nice relics. Have thought of doing a quick video/photo of the broken relics you find. Don't even tell me you only find whole relics! 🤨
Thanks buddy I appreciate it! I will throw in a broken piece every now and then, but I do find more than my fair share of broken pieces. I recently walked a field and found over 80 pieces. Mostly broken. That would be one looong video! Haha When I show the finds from that field I’ll share a pic of all the broken pieces I found as well. Thanks again for coming back to check out the new finds!
right on bro!. dealing with a family lose..... heading out next weekend
Nice!! I could see the grinding on the base of the dove. Great early archaic example. Congrats on all your finds.
Thanks my friend! A day with a dove is always a good day! Hope you’re well and ready to get out at it! When are y’all gonna plow again for the tobacco crops? Or have y’all decided to go… gulp… no till and start growing corn and soy like everyone else?!😦 haha
@@Points365 started plowing about a week ago. Looking forward to some washing rains. You all take care.
Awesome ihp dude.
As usual KTTM's !!!
Haha thanks buddy, I appreciate it as always!
Man you kill it! That LL drill and Dove are show stoppers. Great music and artifacts. I get excited when I see you have a new video.
Thanks buddy! I always like to start off a video with a good’n and end off with an even good’r good’n! Haha But thanks again though man. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!
Stunning Dove!! The craftsmanship in the Early Archaic was just something else. Incredible finds you’ve made there on the river. Points most only dream about. Good for you!!! Best of luck and thanks for sharing!
Awesome finds as usual 🔥 I like that flint ax head looks like it was hafted and then the dovetail is absolutely beautiful!!
Thanks as always buddy! The axe was unusually interesting with that one side notched like that. Thanks on the dovetail.. it’s for sure my best one so far! Thanks for checking it out!
What a great hunt. That dovetail is stunning. You could actually see the grinding on the base. I really like the flint ax. Congrats.
Epic finds my friend! We enjoyed watching the video as always. What a dovetail! On my bucket list maybe one of these days. Lol, take care buddy!
Thanks man I appreciate it! That dove was a beauty though.. I wish they were more common finds around here for many reasons. But man with the stuff y’all find, a dove would fit right in time wise with the rest of it. I hope on your next dig y’all spot that distinct base sticking out of that dirt wall just waiting on you! Good luck out there mi amigos!
@@Points365 yes sir buddy and good luck to you as well! 👍🏻
Killed it again man! That dove is incredible! Cool lost lake in the intro too! Congrats!
Thanks buddy! I always perk up when I walk up on some sort of artifact, but I really perk up if I see the base of a dovetail staring into my soul! Haha thanks as always man!
@13:50 I have a projectile point, so similar to that. But I'm in Australia! How can that be??? 😉 oh btw that Dove tail is wonderful. Excellent work!!
Wow ! Man what some stellar points , bucket list at about the 12 min and 18 min marks ! Wow man you never disappoint, killers ! Great drills , and an Indian head cent ? Great eye brother ! Thanks for sharing.
Definitely a beautiful dove brother.. some day I gonna find one, probably not that nice but it will still be cool.
Hopefully they are gonna have the Jackson Tennessee show this year, take care and God bless.
Thanks man! The doves are elusive for sure though. I don’t have many of them compared to other point types. They will turn up for you one day when you least expect it!
You gonna make an appearance showing off some goods if they have the Jackson show?!
@@Points365 I'm hoping to if they have it, tried to go last year but they didn't have it, we showed up and they had something TOTALLY not artifact related there lmao
Awesome finds bro, I’d love to learn how to find points as well as you do!
Thanks buddy! You’ve got it in you… all it takes is lots of miles and lots of exploring. Then once you think you’ve looked everywhere, look it all over again! Haha known sites are good producers, but a lot of my finds are purely random pieces that were lost at some point in time, as they don’t seem to be near any known camps. The random finds always seem to be really nice as well! Good luck out there man, and thanks for checking out the finds!
Lost Lakes, Chert axes, Dovetails Oh My! Haha! Looks like you had a good February. Just a thought, you might want to do a vid with pics of the countless brokes inbetween the killers. Love the rocks man, congrats and good luck!
I think about adding the broken pieces sometimes, but then when my videos are 20 mins long with just the nicer stuff, I realize that my videos would probably be 45 mins with the brokes! If I find broken pieces that are peculiar, or noteworthy, I will sometimes add them to the mix. As you know, if you hunt artifacts, you could probably fill the bed of a pickup truck with broken artifacts! Haha It’s the name of the game though. Thanks again and as always buddy!
Those are some beauties! After watching your channel I wanted to walk around the near by Cherokee lake but seems it's been muddy a lot this winter. The water is raising back up pretty quick now. My mom still has my dad's little collection as well as several mini-balls he found in his younger years.
Thanks man! Watching videos of people finding things always gets me pumped up and motivated to get out and find my own stuff as well! In my personal opinion, when it’s muddy is when the best hunting is happening! The color of the flint and mini balls for that matter, seem to stick out like a sore thumb against the dark colored mud. But as you will probably agree, getting out to hunt is always an enjoyable experience no matter what! Good luck on your hunts out there and thanks for watching!
I thought the first one was a lost lake at first but no bevel so I guess Kirk. But then again looks like it has one and been resharpening a bunch.
You have some great places to hunt and man you kill it! I live in western NY you would think this place would be loaded. There are two reservations still here and a couple that have long since disappeared. I have not found a single artifact in the couple years I have been looking.
Thanks man! We definitely have it good down here as far as artifacts go. You’re right though, I would think it would be loaded up there as well. All the history books and autobiographies I’ve read about the exploration of that area during the time of first European contact, it seems like they couldn’t traverse that area without having native contact at every turn. There’s artifacts of all kinds there, you just have to be at the right place at the right time! Anywhere there is dirt being moved is a great place to start… be it at a construction site, plowed field, or the natural erosion that happens in lakes, streams, and rivers. They are bound to reveal themselves to you! But it does require miles and miles…. And miles of walking! Haha good luck man and thanks for checking out the finds!
Man !!!! What a bunch of smokers . You always find the best fir sure ! That penny was awesome and the dovetail is one of the prettiest I've seen. What do you think that big piece was ? Killer stuff as always brother 👍👍👍
Killer video brother, when I saw what you started off with, I knew it was gonna be good. Congrats my friend. Did you see my latest video, i found a big smith
Stellar finds. What that an axe? Im new to the hobby so lots of questions. What time period would it be? Incredible photography and videography. 🙂
Sorry for the belated response, been busy hunting on my vacation! Haha But yes, I would guess an axe. A hoe would be a close second guess though. Usually hoes would have a sort of polish on the business end from being repeatedly used in the dirt, which is why I’m guessing axe. But you really never stop learning with artifacts! In fact you realize due to the lack of recorded history we have on them, a lot of what people know, is really just guesses. That’s why you get so many different answers to one question. As far as time period, those type of artifacts like axes and whatnot changed very little over the different periods as opposed to projectiles and whatnot. So putting a time on those are harder to do. All you have to go on is what you find near or around where you find it. In this case I would have to guess middle archaic period based on artifacts found near it. So roughly 6,000 years old. Incredible to think about isn’t it?! Thanks for taking the time to check out the finds!
👍👍
Two thumbs up… what else could I ask for! Haha thanks for coming back to give your stamp of approval!
👍👍👍👍👍!!!!🏹
👍
Hey Brother ! Wow , three killer drills ? Are you kidding me ? I have some amazing artifacts from your state . Want to do some trading ? Unfortunately I kinda know the answer ! The penny was letting you know that yes , First Nations people were supposed to be honored by this . Ha ! I don't think so ! Any time you would be open to some trading , let's talk . Great video as always ,,,, Thanks ,,,,,

Congrats on another killer dovetail. Not a super common type to find mid state where I'm at. Thanks for taking the time to film and share too man as always. You know a thing or two about where when and how to find em.
Killer finds bro!
Thanks buddy, I appreciate you checking it out!
@DirtyWaterJones you would enjoy watching this channel
Thanks for the suggestion!
First one looks like specks of gold is inside
