Kentucky Headhunting - Can't get ANY BETTER! (new pics

So, the wife and gave us the weekend to go field hunting and we decided to head south to Kentucky.

Rather than hitting a bar for St. Patty's Day OR attending the artifact show in Collinsville, Shane (flint-seeker) and I headed down to Kentucky.

This is the results of 2 fields walked over over Saturday afternoon and Sunday from 11AM until 2:30PM.

Words can't explain how great this weekend was for both of us. BEAUTIFUL county, perfect weather and phenomenal field conditions.

Saturday's hi-lights were a broken, drilled pick bannerstone and about a 2.5 inch thin archaic side notch.


this color is completly natural now, wow cant believe how dark they get after pulling them out of a field!!

Sunday, we founds lots of flint, then Shane found a total of 3 broken axes (he never found ONE!) and then I found this KILLER pestle, completely polished. All in all, 21 complete points and hafted scrapers, ALOT of brokes.THEN......

Right before leaving, I found the find of my lifetime. I have it all on video, but we are driving home as we speak (Shane's a tech geek, so I have internet on the way home on his laptop).

Videos to come soon - especially the footage of my gorget...

AMAZING TIME, BEST WEEKEND HUNT OF THE PAST 7 YEARS OF HUNTING!

Re: Kentucky Headhunting - Can't get ANY BETTER! (new pics

Awesome find Trevmma!! It just doesn't get much better than that. Great looking in situ picture as well. My guess is Adena because of the shape and the drilling from one side only. You got my vote for the Banner.
