Thanks for the offer!

shoshoni, next weekend I'm going to Kansas to watch my kid play some ball. fri and sat double-headers. be back about noon on sunday

Well, maybe you should relax after the drive. We can do it another time.
I'll be sure to keep in touch.

Hunted a private island in Florida for years that had Indian ceremonial circles & burial mounds. The owners recovered a large quantity of artifacts & had Miami University examine them which were never returned. The burial area seemed to have a mystical feeling about it & I could just imagine Native Americans bringing their dead chiefs there. One of the tribes wanted to remove the remains, but the owners are very religious & felt the area should remain undisturbed. They believed that ancient Native Americans must have had a reason to paddle dead chiefs to the island for burial & to conduct ceremonies. The tribe is allowed to conduct a private ceremony there each year. At one time the island was home to Black Bears, deer, turkey, bobcats, gators, armadillos, raccoons, eagles, hawks, & lots of snakes including monster rattlers. When the Spanish settled in Florida wild hogs took refuse on the island.

Interesting thread. Thanks for sharing...

I relax by poking around the prairie......After 6 1/2 hours on my ass in a car, I don't figger to couch it by the tv.

Now THAT makes sense........

Then I'd sure like to come out for an afternoon hunt with ya then. I'll PM ya later this week to get your location.
Thanks again!

I picked these two up yesterday morning. It's always a damn race out the my spot after a rain. Have to beat the meth heads and boozers who hunt them too. Trespassing bastards!!!

Here are a few I've found over the years.

Nice collection/finds you guys


I know we had different tribes out on some land of ours, but I've never found a thing. Always looking at any fresh turned earth, but it's mostly grass and I think you'd have a better chance finding a needle in a hay stack.

Used to spend more time looking down while hunting Antelope West river, but again never found anything. Although the Ranchers kid had a nice collection from over the years.

shoshoni, I walked down to the range to shoot the AR at some steel. Found this in the dirt behind the trap house.....Maybe I'll look around the yard, instead of walking to the bluff.....

That's awesome! The walk is good for ya though. lol
Nice find

Did ya find any time to look for points today Huntsman?
I read up on some of the tribes that we talked about. Sounds similar to the migration patterns of the tribes who ventured through Idaho.

shoshoni came out to the ranch today. I think he had a good time. He was able to find a bunch'o chips and flakes. He also found a busted point AND a real dandy....

I'd do that every day if I could! Thanks a bunch for the top-notch hospitality Huntsman. I had a great time. I took more pictures of the little point. Here ya go!

Great find! I hope to find one someday, I ware one my Grandfather found as a boy in southern Ill. on a chain, around my neck, most everyday, for 3 years now, it sat in a drawer, till than! had a Native American at a show, wrap it in silver wire, he said it was big Med. as it looks to have blue veins in it! offered me alot of stuff for it and showed it to others!

Arrowheads are neat and all but I like to go for the big fish.

I love this stuff. Thanks to all who've shared. Some day I'll find *something*.

First things I thought of....
