Anyone finding anything here of late?

Too windy to burn brushpiles yesterday. So I walked around a little while down by the creek and found this little Martindale point

I’ve only dug for arrowheads 3 times when hunting in west Texas . I found 1 point . I would rather dig for arrowheads than hunt or fish but living in south Louisiana there’s no place to dig . I envy you guys that live in a area where you can dig regularly.

You are extremely fortunate to have permission to detect that location. That’s bucket list material.

Posted this before, but this German made rifle was found before the war around 1930ish over in a cliff shelter on the Pedernales river maybe a couple of miles from the ranch here. Don’t know where exactly as Uncle Gordon that found it was killed in the Po river valley in 1944. He found two rifles. The other one got tore up as a cowboy & indian toy

This is way cool historical stuff from the Indian War era and found near the Custer Battlefield. The cartridge is a Custer battle cartridge found 6 1/2 miles east of the battlefield. It is inside primed with a copper case. The cases are from around the same area, the 45-70 is later, but the 44 Henry is from the Custer battle timeframe as well. The button is from an Indian police coat that would have been later than the Custer battle, but we found it near the bank of the Little Bighorn River at Reno’s crossing. You are extremely fortunate to have permission to detect that location. That’s bucket list material. It is one thing to find cool stuff, it is another to access such a historical site and investigate what happened…

That’s what I meant, Shrap. Simply amazing location. It wouldn’t matter what was dug, if it was tied to that fateful day. Great historic picture comparison too! Love those.

Ain't been out in about 2 weeks Need to go check on plowing stage. Lot of these from before 1st plowing/ winter " dead fields" Need to go check plowing / planting stage again. Saving pitbull hill for slumlord per easy access and hot spot. Some wholes so far nothing really spectacular. Do like that Rhind stone hand knife in upper left. Pretty unique stump the dummy material. Checked entire US material data base on projectile point.com Will post up seperate pics of that.
