Just moved home to Texas from Florida. Ready to start hunting here. In Florida I had 3 midden piles at St.Augustine/Matanzas river I frequented. Also one of my very favorite spots is on the Ocklawaha river at Rodman dam. After losing the first Seminole war, the natives retreated from Apopka area North to that area. And by the number of flint knaps I found, all they did was make points before going back South for the second war, which they won. One thing I notice is how easy it was to find artifacts laying exposed on sand, unlike here were there are rocks everywhere.
Truly an amazing place... To know the true history of the people that made those artifacts and how they came to be buried there might be the only thing that could have made that expedition better... thanks for sharing...
Were I live you can only screen on private land, anywhere else and you are off to jail. I believe the Indian antiquities act prohibits any digging on BLM Land or pubic land like state, Forest land as well. So be careful. I know some places I would love to dig up myself. Peace.
Incredible!!! That flint has to be the best I’ve ever seen! You guys better keep a tight lid on that location! Please keep us updated with more videos, good luck on your next time out!!!
Just found you guys! Boy, killer finds and just love the way you structure your videos. No loud music, and great views of the points letting them stand on their own. Appreciate it, keep them coming!
Man!!! The detail in those points is incredible down there! Only second to the amazing material. That center piece monster blade is insanely beautiful! Thanks for sharing some killer finds!!
Had me confused for a minute. I was thinking that guy looked like a young Creek Dalton.. started talking then I had to read the description. Nice blast from the past and incredible material👍🇺🇸
Guau guau That is a divine place, incredible in a single expedition they found a whole collection of friendly arrowheads. Also beautiful, diversity and excellent materials. Hopefully one day I will find such a quantity in my hunts. I will continue seeing you friends. my friend to live in contact with nature in the most fantastic and healthy. You never know what you are going to find apart from what you are looking for.
I've never got to dig I know of kill sites were I found twenty points on the surface, sure would like to see what is under the ground there. Great video excellent finds.
My grandfather 50 times removed wants you to send me all his arrowheads ... pronto! ... he left there and went to Germany and then my grandfather came back. So there! Lol

Middens are the best places to find artifacts that exist pretty much.
One of these days I'm going to find an arrowhead. It's on my bucket list. I live outside of Austin near Steiner Ranch on Lake Austin. There's lots of nature trails around this area and every single time that I go out walking I find scraping tools of different sizes. They're sitting on top of the ground blending in with hundreds of other rocks. Some of them on the trail. It's amazing that so many people walk by these artifacts not knowing what they are. You can tell when a stone has been worked. Lots of flint in this area. The way they fit your hand it's, it's incredible. And they are sharp still. I don't want you to give up your location but what part of Texas are y'all in?
.Someday you will find one my friend, you need to get to the point indicated as these friends. The amount of beautiful pieces they found is incredible. Greetings my friend form the desert of Baja California Sur, Mexico.
I’m in Amarillo in the panhandle and I just know there are some amazing spots to hunt but I can’t find them. I’d spend hours looking if I just got a spot
I found an arrowhead looking stone that is roughly the size of a 16.9 oz water bottle.How would I find out if its an arrowhead or petrified fish.Help Please,I have pics
I came across this video and now I want to get into finding these. Is their any specific reason why so many are in one spot? What would cause their to be so many left in one area like that. Sorry if that is a stupid question I'm just generally curious awsome find 👍
Wait, wasn't that Richard Creekdalton? What an epic adventure for you guys. Have you been back? And why not take some buckets? Great blast from the past. Enjoyed it.
Isn’t that right next to Frio? I dug Frio in ‘07 when everyone was digging it and would love to come out and do it again. Do they still have a pay dig going?
In the US my hunter friends find tips by digging. I have never excavated here, perhaps when I no longer find on the surface of the desert sands, then I will excavate some hot spots. Greetings and merry christmas.
Were you able to gather info on type of points being found? Esp curious on the large flat "Rootbeer" point at around 0:26, then later after washing at 4:54. I think it may be the same item (?). Trying to imagine the aerodynamics of launching that size of a projectile.....so maybe a knife or hefty spear point? Thx, F.
Those big ones were definitely spears. Look paleo, so 12,000+ years old. Probably for mammoths. There were mammoths a plenty in the hill country of Texas.
Beautiful finds but now a question WHY do you guys and so many others not have a bucket and a brush to clean off your finds? You know, Handy within a few feet ?? bottled water to wash? doesn't make sense to me.
IDK I've always kind of had a problem with digging and sifting. I guess unless it's your own property. Only surface hunted my whole life personally. Nice scores guys 👍
All those perfect points and different types in one place and the same material not buying it sorry, it's like going to a flea market and finding a bunch of perfect points at $35.00 each and all types.
Great finds! Those points are spectacular! I have watched many of these videos and can't help but wonder "of all the space there is out there what makes you select a particular spot?" I saw no indication of a nearby creek, noticeable elevation change, etc.... Why there and not 100 feet to the right for instance?
Because that's just where he chose. It don't have to be right next to water. The natives had camps and stuff all over not always right up against water
I was told by an old Delaware Indian that camps were no more than a mile from water because a mile wasn't to far for the women to carry water. I've seen maps that show native villages and to almost a perfect fit every location has a modern town/city sitting on top of it now. They all have one thing in common, a consistent water supply.
Any idea why so many in one location? The soil looks like a lot of carbon present suggesting a fire at some time. What are your thoughts regarding a location appearing to be weapons either buried, hidden or piled to be destroyed?
.It could be what you say friend. Also that they were kept as a religious act, also that they left them there for when they returned to hunt there, before they were nomads. Greetings friend and MERRY CHRISTMAS.
I use to work with a lady and her family owned some land in Springtown tx , they found alot of spear heads and pottery all seemingly in a trail that lead to a big mou ND, she said some college Came out and was going do a huge archeological dig , and said that it was an old trading place that's what I think of when I see that many in one spot
was that an old camp site or a river bottom at one time? What made you guys start digging through all the layers of rocks? I have found about 200 points in 14 months on land I just bought. Just by walk a creek that runs though it. I would like to dig, but have no ideal where to start.
They obviously had permission from the landowner genius. Not illegal in Texas on private land. And how is it wrong? Points were made for tens of thousands of years. We'll never find them all. Educate yourself.
There are literally billions of stone artifacts left behind by primitive man, and most will never be found. I would also point out that 99% of what "professional archaeologists" find in the field are of little to no historical value and will end up in the basement of some lab somewhere never to be see by humans again. At least private collectors often display there pieces and allow the world to appreciate them.

Hell of a spot yall found. Much love from Bandera Tx
Dang, If I were to have found anyone of these absolutely beautiful tips I would’ve been the happiest person alive
Truly an amazing place...
To know the true history of the people that made those artifacts and how they came to be buried there might be the only thing that could have made that expedition better... thanks for sharing...
That point on the cover
Is one of the nicest I've ever seen. Congrats!
That’s a killer site congratulations on your finds thanks for sharing 🤩👍🙏
More points in one trip than I find in a whole year, Congrats on the amazing finds guy's

@@richardkjelsrud242 Those laws apply in Texas as well , but this is obviously on private property.
I'm sitting here @ work counting down the minutes until I can leave & go hit my new honey hole! Nice finds!!!😍😍😍
Find of a lifetime that big'n!
Damn, that's a nice Kinney Blade, Castroville, Langtry and Friday Knife!
Man, I know y'all were sore.
Congrats almost 20 yrs later.
Incredible!!! That flint has to be the best I’ve ever seen! You guys better keep a tight lid on that location! Please keep us updated with more videos, good luck on your next time out!!!
Just incredible- I can’t even imagine finding one of those! Captivating video- fabulous finds.
Just found you guys! Boy, killer finds and just love the way you structure your videos. No loud music, and great views of the points letting them stand on their own. Appreciate it, keep them coming!
Its got an early youtube nestalgia to it
What a great day!!!
Man!!! The detail in those points is incredible down there! Only second to the amazing material. That center piece monster blade is insanely beautiful! Thanks for sharing some killer finds!!
great finds boys, Killin it, I hunted last week found a nice Adena.
It's incredible how you found so many amazing points on that site. It takes me months to find one.
.I have seen that video dozens of times and I still wonder why so many tips in one place and beautiful. Greetings friend and Merry Christmas.
@@coyotearrowheadhunting3083 merry Christmas! Yes its incredible. I'm always trying to get a group together to look if your ever interested
Incredible finds.
.All the findings are incredible. I have seen this video several times. Greetings friend and MERRY CHRISTMAS.
I see so much stuff people find that is worse than what I make. Then you a bucket full of stuff that a true artist made.
Had me confused for a minute. I was thinking that guy looked like a young Creek Dalton.. started talking then I had to read the description. Nice blast from the past and incredible material👍🇺🇸
Literally, EXACTLY what happened to me!!
@@flakescarred4life901 I thought I was tripping or having a stroke😂
pretty work!
Unbelievable 💖 So exciting!
Must be good friends with someone to be allowed to dig up the property like that
Amazing
Well done great video
Native Americans certainly took flint napping to it’s absolute extreme but they were here for 40,000 years and never got out of the Stone Age.
Best spot ever
You boys takin applications 🤣 killer day!
Fantastic finds! Central Texas points are some of the finest artifacts out there. Here in NE Texas, our points are small and ugly by comparison.
Wow that place is Heaven. Killer finds
Yepper that's some super nice hunting!
Guau guau That is a divine place, incredible in a single expedition they found a whole collection of friendly arrowheads. Also beautiful, diversity and excellent materials. Hopefully one day I will find such a quantity in my hunts. I will continue seeing you friends. my friend to live in contact with nature in the most fantastic and healthy.

Wow, thanks for sharing 😎 it will take some time for my jaw to heal. Not too bad considering the speed it was traveling when it hit the floor 😉
good spray bottles work wonders picking rocks 👍 try it you'll never leave home with out it,
I've never got to dig I know of kill sites were I found twenty points on the surface, sure would like to see what is under the ground there. Great video excellent finds.

Wow that's the kind of shit I Dream About Finding, Heck Yeah Man, Congratulations and GL&HH
That material i insane! Thats an amazing site! I have yet to find a artifact. Only been looking for a year lol, but I try.
.Someday you will find one my friend, you need to get to the point indicated as these friends. The amount of beautiful pieces they found is incredible. Greetings my friend form the desert of Baja California Sur, Mexico.

How .. Jesus , what a place 👍
Can y’all share where this was , since it’s been awhile?
Why are the arrow heads always a couple feet in the ground?
Nice stuff
Amazing
I came across this video and now I want to get into finding these. Is their any specific reason why so many are in one spot? What would cause their to be so many left in one area like that. Sorry if that is a stupid question I'm just generally curious awsome find 👍
I'd say thats definitely paradise! All killers! Congrats
Awesome
Wait, wasn't that Richard Creekdalton? What an epic adventure for you guys. Have you been back? And why not take some buckets? Great blast from the past. Enjoyed it.
Why are they so large? They seem to be from different periods.
Isn’t that right next to Frio? I dug Frio in ‘07 when everyone was digging it and would love to come out and do it again. Do they still have a pay dig going?

How did those get made and never get used?
“It ain’t the one”>>> Frio=“Is the one” and those beautiful blades too, and all those finely made points, love that root beer flint 😎😎😎
Man o man is right
lol that was a hand shaker

@16min CLOVIS though a rough one?
IDK I've always kind of had a problem with digging and sifting.
I guess unless it's your own property.
Only surface hunted my whole life personally.
Nice scores guys 👍
Obviously they had permission. They weren't out just digging on someones land. Texas is almost all privately owned.
All those perfect points and different types in one place and the same material not buying it sorry, it's like going to a flea market and finding a bunch of perfect points at $35.00 each and all types.
I wonder how many pieces yall have broke with ur shovels and pickaxe.
Can I dig with you? 😢 😂 Congratulations
.My friend, I am happy to greet you. This video I have seen several times. Everything is awesome.
Great finds! Those points are spectacular! I have watched many of these videos and can't help but wonder "of all the space there is out there what makes you select a particular spot?"

Sift in the creek. I would never dig if i could find that many walking.
2 Feet under ground Unbelievable
What a Find
I know. Many of those are paleo. 12,000+ years old!
What kind of material is that? It’s almost translucent. Very glassy like obsidian is.
Locally we call it root beer ,it’s Edwards plateau flint one of the highest grade materials in North America for stone tool manufacturing.
Only thang missing out of a Texas dig is a bell and a conor tang lol
?
The artifact at 5:40! 😻😻😻 Where in Texas were you guys? I am looking for a new jam! A road trip is in my near future
Texas is almost all private property. They had to have permission to hunt there.
Where was this at in Texas and can anyone pay to go there?
Fort Hood
I went across the street from there and dug once but I stayed there at CLO
Why did you choose this spot to dig ?
Killers🔥🔥🔥
What county?
DAMN!!!!
I hunt the river banks. Question.... where do you know where to start digging in fields?
That was most definitely private property. The landowner probably knew from surface and other finds that spot was there.
They all are the same flint type.
speechless
Yeeeeah!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s the dream. Couple buddies on a site, no wives or girlfriends in sight, digging all day, no problems!!
a lot of hard work but the payoff is worth every minute, congrats
they look like glass arrow heads
driving me insane with jealousy.
I think you need a new digging friend. I’m your huckleberry 😜
Almost too good to be real…
One day y’all are going to find a mind numbing grower …
I hope you get caught. Digging is illegal and wrong!!!
They obviously had permission from the landowner genius. Not illegal in Texas on private land. And how is it wrong? Points were made for tens of thousands of years. We'll never find them all. Educate yourself.
Karen you are wrong
This is what happens when you eat paint chips, the brain stops working correctly 😂
