Title: Turkey Tale of Buffalo
Post by: Zuma on November 26, 2015, 02:28:07 pm

Well to tell the tail-- ???
I got up before sunrise. I took pics of the moon set. :)
Got bored and pecked out a turkey tail starting with
of course an overshot. :o
Happy Turkey Day Zuma O:)
Oh I still have a few hours to get a wild one. :laugh:

Don, some beautiful pics, and I like your turkey tale. Looks like some of Eric's Chigger  Creek Buffalo River stone. Bob

Thanks fellas you are kind. :)
After beating on the cherts with major inclusions, crystal
and concrete pockets, this chert was a dream. :)
Even starting from bricks. ;)

That's certainly a nice point. I love that material as well - the nicest Dalton I ever made was BR. I hope you get ahold of more of it!

Thanks Hans and Dalton.
I just recently discovered I have collected several
points along the Calf Killer in eastern Tenn. that are
made out of Buffalo. I didn't know what material they
were made of until knapping some.
I have quite a few from Benton County too.
