I find a lot of small bone awls. gouges..ect.. there are 2 of my sites I find a lot of these small artifacts. they look like they could be bone projectile points only I would imagine some weight would had to have been added 4 proper flight. does someone have an explanation for these?

I'd have to see better pictures of the tips, but in that picture they just look like small pieces of splintered Bone, but not Points.
 

those look more like what grim reaper is talking about
here is a couple of images of what a bone point could look like
i like to study your posts of all of your finds and do not mean any disrespect

that thing is awesome! I have sound very little antler over here. strange because dear teeth and bones are everywhere. I have some antler napping tools

I call those "bone pin machines". They made a lot of "bone pins" in my area. Cool, guys!
