Weight of Artifacts

(1/3) > >>

Pelo:
I don't have but a few arrowheads collected and bought from trusted sources. But after weighing them out I found they averaged around 14 grains. Looking at some of the new hunting points weighing over 100 grains has got me to wondering what other folks have in their collections. I have my doubts that there are many artifacts over 50 grains. Let's see you're heiaviest and lightest stuff.

Sasquatch:
I've found some that weigh like 5-15 grains. So small.

Zuma:
I have a collection of near 4,000 points.
Bare in mind that most of them are spear or atatl points,
not arrowheads.

I'll try and post some

Tracker0721:
With my recurve I shoot close to 200 grains up front with ash shafts. Super heavy. This years obsidian points were about 50. I've only found 1 point and it was a basalt atlatl point. Never weighed it but whole it must of been 100-120. It's broken almost in half.

Zuma:
Here are some tiny points from Georgia and some large from all over.
