Getting ready to go out again. I haven't been out for four years. I had just started hunting in Midwest Missouri when I had a stroke. Found a few pieces and one drill, then had a stroke. That was four years ago. Time to go back out 🤓. Really great advice. Thanks for sharing!
You fellers put those points right back where you found them. They are all mine,every one of em! I just haven't gotten out that way to find them yet lol. " Hooked" "Addicted" what a great thing to become addicted to! I have found points driving down the road looking the banks after a rain. Oconee County South Carolina here. Thanks for your videos!
Man out of all the hours, all the people rambling, all the same information... i think i took more from this one video. Ive been hunting my whole life and have found some amazing stuff due to being in the heart of the texas hill country but ive always chased knowledge almost more than the artifacts itself since its harder to come by. This is the first video of yours ive seen and im about to tune in. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge! God bless and keep them coming!
I'm working on a few houses on the fork of two large rivers, and there's a new hwy being built in the front yard about 300yds from the water. I'm going to start looking. Thanks for the help
Just found your video. I discovered a good amount of native tools (knives, axe heads, polishers...) in the bottom of a creek bed. Now after your vid it makes more sense--thank you.
Great info. I live in Northeast Georgia and we have springs everywhere. Not so much aquafers that push water to the surface but seep springs that slowly drain from hillsides and below ridge lines that meet together. Watershed areas. Much of the soil in NE GA is conducive to holding rain water as opposed to a gritty or sandy soil that drains quickly. This leads to springs seeping for multiple weeks even after no precipitation. Without fail there will be artifacts found around these springs. Due to hilly topography most native occupation sites will be found on the ridge above the spring. As you stated, anywhere where fresh water flows there will be artifacts around.
Thank you for explaining about the mile out flat wake from the water! In ancient times rivers were wider than they are now so maybe hunting even further out makes sense if the land looks right. I just surface hunt, so I've never found a point but I do love my axes, hammer stones, ovate blades & scrapers.
I use to hunt on a large farm that had two separate creeks. I truly learned a lot about artifact hunting at that place. You are spot on about the water. Find the water and act like if you were camping and getting ready to pitch a tent. That would be the first flat ground out of the flood plain. I think people that have attempted it and didn’t do well gave up to soon. The artifacts are their!
I e alway's looked in fields very successful Dale, I've looked in ditches At Creeks Rivers at Ponds etc...... 👍😃 Dale I've even found Arrowheads at and behind old Gas stations,Dirt Roads side the main Highway etc...... 👍😃 Dale I Love Arrowhead Hunting ❤️👍😃
I lived in laclede and wright counties . I found lots of artifacts between nianghua river and Osage and gasconade. I found them on just about every hill top, every creek, yes sir thanks for putting out the information.
We have a creek with a natural spring that my ancestors used and going this summer to do a little scouting and dig for arrowheads. My son found one in our pasture just by chance metal detecting.
From south Texas, you're not Hollywood, but you hit on some good points and give good advice so people can cultivate good relations with others and their property. Nothing better than being allowed the freedom look allowed, rather than being rejected because we can't reason or act civil with land owners.
Thanks for taking the time to share some tips on finding the old worked stuff. I also find all of my stuff near the water, usually in rock overhangs and cliffs above the main creeks where I’m at. Enjoyed your video brother
I'm from North Alabama Me and my buddies have been looking for years and the ideas and suggestions you give has helped me find more that I ever have thank you
I like to look along creek banks after a good hard rain. Uncovers some new stuff but at the same time covers up some. Looking forward to your next video.
@@HickbillyOutdoorswithDWVertsI can hardly wait, I found my first point @ a year ago after years of looking in the wrong places and it was in the wrong place about a mile from water in the tracks of a bulldozer, pure luck, but since then I figured out some things that you'd stated and used instinct I guess. Now I am working on my 3rd shadow box, mostly full of broken pieces but I treasure them all
Thanks for the video. Everybody's been telling me I'm wasting my time looking under the couch. Oh I did find my missing sock and a half bag of Cheetos!
Great advice, just subscribed and gonna pass the word. Even though I live in Florida I take my vacations out of state every year. I find you have advice I can use anywhere. Yep I know chiggers, they will hop a hard road to get to me. Have a great day.
Good video my friend !!! I'm a 60 year old boomer and lean and healthy and want to get back to the outdoors and find some of this stuff and I do have a great public spot that is way back in the middle of basically no where but right on a river !!!! So my question is did the native Americans hide or bury their tools/artifacts before they had to move to richer hunting grounds for whatever reason !!!! And did they perhaps live on islands in the middle of rivers ? This stuff just fascinates the piss out of me oops I'm sorry if that offended you sir !!!! I did sub you by the way and the content is straight up and straight forward and to the POINT !!! Hahahha !!! Did I just make a funny there ?
Offend me? Righhhtttt... I doubt they buried the tool-type stuff. It was just discarded or lost and nature claims it pretty quick. The island thing? You bet- a great "secret" right there. Keep us posted on your progress please, and THANKS.
I ran into some weird rocks that were like rusted iron color but you could literally make it clink sooooo loud my buddies could hear it wayyy down the creek. Shaped almost like a bottom of a bowl it’s all over tho I saw several pieces like this maybe it’s nothing.
Good advice bud.I find most of my points in plowed fields near creeks and streams,on the east and southeast side of slopes/ knolls. Best after a good rain. Happy hunting to all.
I live in Maryland, I've been searching for sites for two years not every weekend but a good amount. My problem with creek hunting is the amount of different colored rock and. material. Lots of quartz around. I've located huge boulders of quartz. It could have been mined, don't know. But always thought that quartz was one of their last choices for material. I know about the water ways etc. I'm just a beginner as far as Native artifacts but I'm highly interested in them. I have been doing my studying and research. I have a real good spot but can't get permission to go. The property has changed hands I could have hunted it for 50 years, but was into metal detecting. It has a beautiful spring that goes into a creek and then 60-70 yards from the creek there's somewhat of a rock shelter. Then within a half mile is a river. But the flat land in-between has been developed. I try and i think on it all the time. Time will tell I guess. That was a good video, thank you for the information. Take care and Good Luck
@@dougurso7976 I hunt Carroll County it's close to home and I know it pretty well. I have more opportunities to hunt that way. I used to detect for civil war relics primarily since the early 70's, when I was a kid with my father and brothers. I know Frederick county pretty well, Sharpsburg, Washington county. I've been wanting to go to those countries searching but was waiting for the heat to subside somewhat. Only thing is deer season is coming up and lots of people don't want you messing up their hunts and areas which I understand completely. Thanks for asking. Nice to talk to you. Take care!!
@@c.m.r.artifacts84 I know what u mean about hunting water ways. I’ve only been hunting for about a year. The creeks and rivers are tough to find things on with so many rocks. I got permission on 2 farm fields to hunt but most artifacts r broken but I found a few nice pieces. I c u r pretty new at hunting arrowheads also have u been finding things ? I’m 66 years old and just retired and I have become addictive to hunting and now have a lot of time to hunt. Sounds like we r close to the same age. Nice talking to u to good luck hunting can’t wait for the corn 🌽 to be gone it’s a killer walking thru that stuff lol.
@@dougurso7976 Haven't been finding anything so far, it's more of a excursion at this point LoL. Im 57, That's real nice you are finding artifacts. I had some pretty major medical problems for 3 years in a row. I got back into shape by just getting out and walking. My father hunted arrowheads when I was about 7-8. We used to go and I always had a passion for it but we detected mostly through 72-80. Then I pursued a baseball career for alot of years. Got out of looking for relics for years until 1996. Did some with my dad before he passed and been tinkering with it since. Really got into native artifacts the last 3 years and have been trying to locate sites. Nice chatting with you Brother. I hope you find a bunch of smokers!! Take care and Good Luck!
As a knapper do you ever take a found artifact that someone started but didn't finish and try to work it into something or do you consider that it was a reject . I'm also curious about why there are so many scattered arrow heads. Was there maybe a keg party where everyone in the tribe got together and knapped together or just one guy that did the knapping and traded his arrowheads for other goods. Like and old crippled man that couldn't hunt but was great at knapping.
Oh yeah, I've found a few that were not completed (but should have been). Who knows? There are so many, in my opinion, because there were so many PEOPLE for so many YEARS. Watch this video where I discuss this very topic, and THANKS. th-cam.com/video/6e-ImaMoTYE/w-d-xo.html
Think about it. Paleo people in the States have been here for at least 10,000 years and quite possibly longer. They used spear points and arrow points for hunting and over that many years a lot of points were lost. If one field was a good place to hunt there must have been a lot of spears and arrows going into the air. In deep and heavy grass or woods a lot of those projectiles were lost or broken and abandon. Let us guess and say one point was lost every year. That could be close to 10,000 points lost in that hunting ground alone. Hickbilly just told you where to look because if the natives needed water so does the game they relied upon for meat.
I surface hunt behind stores & parking lots that have gulleys & hills behind them. Never found an arrowhead, but lots of other things, especially Paleo. If there's a parking lot that's being torn up, or a sidewalk, those are good places to look on Sundays when the construction crews aren't working. Last summer I found a nice axe mixed in with the decorative rocks while going through an Arby's drive thru. Another time, at the gas station right in front of the gas pump I noticed an unusual smooth black stone on the ground. Upon closer inspection it was incised to look like a bird. If you look at the ground wherever you are, you'll probably see lots of artifacts.
@@HickbillyOutdoorswithDWVerts Can't believe this is the first time I've seen your content, you basically use the type of lingo that my dad and now I use; definitely have and will continue binging all your vids, keep em coming and goodluck on your next hunts👍
Good afternoon from Berlin, New Hampshire. I am going away to a lake up in Maine and Wanted to know specifically where I could look for arrowheads and artifacts along the lake bank?
I assume it's a natural lake? Get a topo map of the area. Think- "where would I live if I had to be HERE"... Higher points near the water, maybe. FLAT spots are important for real habitation. Any springs nearby? Also realize that thousands of years ago things may have looked completely different, so it's the topography and lay of the land that's important. Good luck, and please let me know how you do.
Sorry man, just found this! I'm not sure, maybe they were gauging the next step? See if they were "on" that day? It's part of the mystery- thanks for watching!
getting interested in finding arrowheads plenty of good places to look in KY . but what caught my attention was that telecaster on the wall behind you what's the story on that thanks
I'll do a video soon on my guitars, I promise. I even plunked around on one a couple of weeks ago in a crappie fishin' video, of all places. Thanks for watching.
Generally, yes. There are public accesses sometimes, and then there are the right of ways (see my latest video). In Missouri, if it's designated as a "River" then it's public. I would definitely get with your local LEO's and find out the rules specific to where you live. Good luck.
The rules vary from state to state. Some states don't allow taking anything from the shores of the river, but under the water of the river is fair game!
@@HickbillyOutdoorswithDWVerts I'm a colo collector high plains and its incredibly hard to find somthing of any size complete lots of rocks so it made me cringe nothing personal friend!

@@CORE1.8MINISTERIES Another great place to look. Good luck.
I have never found an arrowhead, i have hunted them many times.
Well sir, it sure takes some time. Hope you do better soon!
How about a man made water way? Here in Minnesota in farm country there are lots of dug out water ways. Could there be artifacts around them?
If they cut THRU the right stuff, you bet. That could be an interesting puzzle.
❤
The first point you show on your video, the pre-form. The notch on the edge. Why did native Americans do that?
Sorry man, just found this! I'm not sure, maybe they were gauging the next step? See if they were "on" that day? It's part of the mystery- thanks for watching!
Love the Guitar Intro
Keep putting out the videos please
More on the way Zach. In fact, soon this channel will be entirely about arrowhead and artifact hunting.
@@HickbillyOutdoorswithDWVerts good! Like me know if you would like to hunt artifacts in florida or put together some king of group gathering.
@@zachdillon275 Cool!

I like what your doing! I’m just starting and have found some crazy stuff that I don’t even know what they are.
Well, keep it up. Learn it and love it.
DW Verts my name is Gene Stevens I've been looking for arrowheads even at I've never found nothing Newton Texas
Gene, keep the faith and thanks for watching.
I Find My Row Heads in the Rocks🤫🤪
HA!
Yes sir we don't want to trample the crops but walking down the middle of the row of 10ft corn isn't going to damage anything actually rather peaceful
getting interested in finding arrowheads plenty of good places to look in KY . but what caught my attention was that telecaster on the wall behind you what's the story on that thanks
I'll do a video soon on my guitars, I promise. I even plunked around on one a couple of weeks ago in a crappie fishin' video, of all places. Thanks for watching.
I think I found fertility effigies. Hopewell. Can I send you a couple of pictures?
Absolutely. ozarktrapper@yahoo.com is my email.
😊
Thanks for watching Anita.
I have a question, do you have to have permission to be on creeks and streams?
Generally, yes. There are public accesses sometimes, and then there are the right of ways (see my latest video). In Missouri, if it's designated as a "River" then it's public. I would definitely get with your local LEO's and find out the rules specific to where you live. Good luck.
Thanks I'm in Illinois, moved up here a couple of years ago "west central" area wanted to start looking but don't know the laws yet
@@old-medalseeker6761 Good luck!
The rules vary from state to state. Some states don't allow taking anything from the shores of the river, but under the water of the river is fair game!
most will be found on the ground
I wouldn't doubt if you broke half that stuff....
?
👍
What state are you searching in?
Missouri. Thanks for watching!
@@HickbillyOutdoorswithDWVerts you are welcome. Looking forward to seeing more. Learning more.
@@ruthlansing9868 Well then it's working. That's what matters.
Horrible was listening to that pile of points clanging against each other sorry!
Well, mostly they were just pieces...
@@HickbillyOutdoorswithDWVerts I'm a colo collector high plains and its incredibly hard to find somthing of any size complete lots of rocks so it made me cringe nothing personal friend!
