Ancient Broadheads

[buckeyebowhunter]

Over the weekend I decided to go ahead and take down my stands. On the way to one of my stands you have to cross a picked corn field. While walking through Dad said we should look for some arrowheads. To my surprise we found two nice points and several fragments. Pretty cool to think about someone hunting the same spot as me hundreds if not thousands of years ago.

Nice. I wish we knew the story that went with them.

good finds.

The old farmers who walked behind their horse drawn plows used to find many of them.  Much more difficult today the way things are done.

There is a spring behind my sister’s house in KY.  When i go back for visits, i wait until a rain and the walk in the corn rows to find points.  The really old guys who lived there years a and years ago liked that spring as much as we do!  The gentle rain washes a lot of dirt off the rocks and points.  They are treasures for sure

Nice points. Finding points is always a special treat. Whenever I am in the woods and fields, I always find myself scouring the ground for arrow points. It is lots of fun, but it sometimes interferes with scouting.

Awesome find.

Those are cool! I tend not to look much though, as even if it is a perfect specimen laying right in the open, I usually just see “rocks”!

Nice find.Use to look for them myself.

[Cyclic-Rivers]

Nice finds for sure. I've looked a lot and the only one I ever found was seen only moments earlier by my cousin.

[Bud B.]

I found two yesterday while out stumping. The top one is a preform.

Creek finds.

Bud what is the strategy for finding them in the creeks? I am interested in this style of hunting them. Nice finds

I found this one in December, It is pretty long. I believe it is a spear or atlatl point.
