Looks like keeper material to me. I like Texas rock and cowboy just told you how to take care of the grainier rocks

I sure am glad ya'll like my free rock! I guess now I can start stock pilling this stuff.

Thanks for all the advice guys. Looks like I might have found someone local to get some knapping advice from too, good deal all around!

Ryan, you crack me up, if I had a dump truck I'd send it your way buddy.

Funny thing is, I was over at my mom's house the other day and she has a pile of this stuff for decorating her flower beds! Prolly got it from the same place I found mine. I'm gonna start my own pile now, heck I can always send ya'll some when ya'll get low

I am in southeast texas also (nederland) originally from (buna) I would like to know where yall are getting the Bull gravel. I am kinda a noob trying to find some cheap rock to practice on.

Something I find interesting: the surface of those rocks has a similar texture to the knappable Mississippi gravels. They also get sold as gravel filler. I'm thinking the gravel pit in my home town is hiding some huge boulders of Tuscaloosa chert that is too course to sell to the concrete and asphalt plants. I need to see what bar the gravel pit workers drink at and get them talking with a few buds
