Let's see some points you've found
FlintWalker:
Seeing as all you fellers been posting all them purty points lately and I don't Knapp. I thought i'd put up some pictures of what i've picked up over the years. Most of them came from backer patches (that's tobacco for you city slickers).
Nothing museum quality, but pretty good to have avoided the discs and plows for so long. In the time it's taken me to find this many good ones, I guess i've picked up 15 gallons of scrapers, preforms, tips, tails and just worked pieces.
I like to look, so let's see what you got!

I'm still lookin Shannon - as soon as I find something worth pickin up here in Laredo I'll post it. Man you got yerself one heck of a nice collection there - just wanna stare at em :D.
Hillbilly:
That's some great stuff, Shannon. That big dogleg Lost Lake is a good'un. Looks like you have some good flint around there. Here's a few of the points that I 've found in the 'baccer patches and cornfields around here. We have no flint here, so most of them are made from local quartzite. There's a few really old ones and some smaller late points made from TN. chert:

Wow! You guys been walking the baccer feilds alot or else theirs just points laying everywhere. Wish I still had that bag of quartzite points I found on the lakeshore. Loaned em to the daughter (years ago) to take to school for show and tell - never saw em again :'(.

I've sold all of mine. You can see one, a Bull Tongue Simpson, in the arrowhead book called," The Best of the South". I think they have it listed for $2400.
