Very nice turkeytail Jesse! You even left a little cortex on the base like the originals 8)
-
Thanks shanon.
That was the plan 8)
-
ewww,that is SWEET!, Man I wish I had time to meet you next weekend.
-
All I can say is that it must be awesome to be able to hunt for your own rock. That is a great haul, and a nice point.
-
Boy howdy! That is some nice looking rock Jesse!! Making me want to go on a run ;D.
-
I can't stop looking at that stuff. Up where I found that sonora/Ky blue, a BIG piece would have been 6" long. Most of it was little 2-3" stuff :( I bet nobody ever collected any flint where you got that.
-
I know Shanon.. I'm going to take a pry bar with me tomarrow and pock around in the soft ground and see if i find any submerged in the dirt. I'm hoping to come home with as much as my silverado will carry!
I am amazed how solid this stuff is.. i spelled up two nodules and there were no cracks!! i am not going to spall any more of the big ones i am going to sell or trade them whole because they really need to me cut.
I'll keep you posted on how i do tomarrow.
-
Looks like you found the mother lode Jesse. I,m so jealous an gettin tired of lookin at snow . WE still have at least a foot of snow cover an havn't seen bare ground since thanksgiving . The turkey tail looks grea t an you did an excellent job with the cortex. Later Bob

I haven't hit a rock,(other than making gun flints) for months now, but that pile has go me to wanting! Very nice stuff.
-
That kinda looks like a flood plain out behind a dam or something?

Nope... I'm out in the middle of Amish country.. nothing but corn fields, dirt roads and dudes with beards riding horse pulled buggies...

Jesse:
Those dudes with the beards often own large tracks of land.
And they know their land very well. Most are nice folks.
You should approach some of them about looking for rock on their land.
Make a few heads to give them so they will understand what you are looking for.
