HEATWAVE of an ARROWHEAD HUNT ~ ARROWHEAD HUNTING in MISSOURI,June 2022

[@joeyhill5498]

I always hear you say "thank you great spirit", and it reminded me when I use to find points, tools and pottery some fifty years ago. You pick up the item hold it in your hand and wonder when was the last time that someone held it in their hand? Love the videos sir, and can relate to your feelings.

[@PtownRockhound]

When picking up any native artifact, I'm immediately drawn to many thoughts. The feeling never gets old. You either love it for the recovery or your heart is in it for something else. Thanks for the kind words and please stay safe and young at heart!

[@blueboy450]

Just never what the next step we take is going to turn up. Seems like we can never see them all, regardless of how hard we hunt. Congratulations on the great finds!

[@PtownRockhound]

It sure does make one questions how many times they've walked over one. I know I'm fairly decent at spotting a worked edge amongst other rocks but it also requires just the right lighting and shading to find arrowheads. Thanks for the comment and please return for my next video!

[@mrdark9916]

I find stuff on the way back all the time, sometimes u just gotta see em from a different angle, no matter how good ya are. I totally get it.

[@normaferro8054]

You are blessed for sure!! You find amazing artifacts! Thank you for sharing. Take care.

[@PtownRockhound]

And thank you for watching.

[@davidhorton8570]

I found one of the best Cobbs I've ever seen today! Nice finds 👌

[@PtownRockhound]

That's what I'm talking about.

[@greatbasinman]

Work paid off, gotta love a job where ya don’t mind the pay, efforts are priceless, your finds are worth time and a half for sure 😎😎😎

[@PtownRockhound]

Believe me if I can make this a full-time job I'd already done it years ago. Thanks for stopping by and watching friend.

[@sharonrowland1196]

Super 👌

[@PtownRockhound]

Thanks👍

[@artifactaddiction]

What a solid day! That one gravel bar sure was on fire! Some great points throughout, but the Dalton at the end was my favorite. Those super old pieces are just dang cool! Thanks for sharing and hope you get some rain!

[@PtownRockhound]

Tell me about it! I found three arrowheads when I walked up to the gravel bar the first time, didn't find anything else. Walked away came back several hours later and found three more on this very same rock bar. It's crazy how shadows and different angles of approach do wonders. The Dalton right by my backpack!!🤯

[@coyotearrowheadhunting3083]

.Wow friend were several quality finds. Very good pieces. GREETINGS FROM YOUR FRIEND COYOTE.

[@PtownRockhound]

Way to go P town 👍 That blunt was killer good luck out there And thanks for sharing🤜👍

[@PtownRockhound]

That was a big Ole blunt! Cleaned up nicely too! Glad you were able to watch the video. It's been a hot one looking! Take care Rockin Ky.

[@bottomjon9933]

Great saves!!! Lots of beautiful points! That first blunt you found is killer

[@PtownRockhound]

Like I said, I usually find hafted scappers much smaller. That one is a big guy!

[@mccoy4realwearenotnorweeve8]

After today's rain here in Pike county Illinois it's looking to be a good weekend to walk creeks wit my head down!!!

[@PtownRockhound]

I hope you find a smoker! Stull no rain here. Starting to think it's going to be a dry summer. Let's hope I'm wrong! Good luck McCoy4REAL

[@daveosdigs6967]

Congratulations my friend, great video, the diversity of the artifacts is awesome and I love crazy flint works of art. I would have to get my sifter and go to that place you found bunch and spend some time. It's easy to walk past one in shadows and angles change all day long. You definitely have an eye for them and definitely Blessed. Don't change. Good luck on your next adventure. looking forward to it. And God Bless

[@PtownRockhound]

I know a few areas good for sifting in certain areas. Did okay the other day. I found a drill type and a few other archaic points. They should be in the next video whenever that may be if weather permitting LOL Glas you came back for another video! Thanks for watching and good luck out there!

[@daveosdigs6967]

@@PtownRockhound You can count on me watching, I think you have one of the best Arrowhead channels on U tube...Roll on and look back every 5 steps.

Spirit was with you today my friend! Beautiful finds today

[@PtownRockhound]

Thanks a bunch Joyce

@@PtownRockhound you have no idea how much I enjoy seeing what spirit has for you!

[@PtownRockhound]

I really appreciate that!

[@historylooker7]

My goodness ,dude ..Lots of awesomeness 👍

[@PtownRockhound]

With the weather conditions being so dry I'm thankful for what I found on that trip.

[@thepeopledownriver9948]

Sweet finds brother. Can't believe that dalton at the end. Killer video

[@PtownRockhound]

Can't believe that I walked over that many points on just one rock bar!

[@zzzzzzzzzzaper]

12:16 look at that brown rock at your pinky fingertip😯

[@PtownRockhound]

Great eye! That was the one I had just found previously. Just never put it away yet in my backpack. Thanks for the lookout though! Much appreciated. Best wishes and stay safe on that bike!

[@indianasmith8152]

Sweet finds! Been straight triple digits down here, but I'm hoping to get out later this week.

[@PtownRockhound]

What rain we've been getting ain't done nothing but hit the ground and was absorbed within minutes. We actually haven't had a good decent amount of rain since mid-april.

[@howardfreeland5595]

Did you know that at 12:27, there is a brown point just below your hand? Maybe I missed something and you placed it there. You have found quite a few nice relics in this video.

[@PtownRockhound]

Yep. That was the arrowhead I had just previously found. Just never put it away in my backpack. Thanks for looking out though👊 Best of wishes Howard Freeland

[@jonpitt1242]

Killer hunt as usual, but you missed a twofer..about 12:18 in the vid, there is a decent little corner notch just to the right almost directly below your hand as you show off the little reworked awesomeness

[@PtownRockhound]

Yeah several other people said the same thing but it was actually the point right before I found that one and I didn't put it in my backpack. Thanks for the lookout though... I appreciate it. And thanks for watching!

[@HawkingLithics]

Great recoveries man! We’re scraping by over here with lack of rain and all…🍻 GL&HH

[@PtownRockhound]

I believe it's gotten to the point that some spots have completely dried up. It's bad! Here lately I've been doing some sifting and it's paid off some. But man we need the rain! Keep that sunburn under control and let's hope for a cooling trend.

[@HawkingLithics]

@@PtownRockhound fingers crossed 🤞🏼

[@mccoy4realwearenotnorweeve8]

Updated profile for ya ptown. Some of my very precious finds. My 1st case, all found in Pike county Illinois. I have a bunch of tools as well not in the pic. Enjoy!!!

[@PtownRockhound]

Very nice! Pike county has a lot of good artifacts! Thanks for the share.

[@rockingontheridge1734]

Good haul brother.. I'm only a couple hrs away if you need help checking them rock bars out.. I miss them to..

[@PtownRockhound]

Or if you need help......😁 Take care friend!

[@rockingontheridge1734]

You too..man

[@busterthompson4520]

Great hunt but u missed 2 when u found that point that was worked down. There was a point tan color right in front of your feet. An one to the upper left

[@PtownRockhound]

Nope. That was the one I had just found and set down to film the newer one. Just didn't put it away! Thanks for looking out! And I believe the other was just a rock. But the way I walked over 3 that day...who knows!

[@CoastalGardening]

👍👍

[@PtownRockhound]

👊❤️

[@jasonlowry1652]

The one at 12:22 by your pinky doesn't have the same flaking patterns as the one before. Am i seeing things or did you miss one?

[@PtownRockhound]

Most likely, seeing something different but not sn artifact.

[@todddavis4274]

Dang what a drill. I'm gonna have to stop watching these before bed and dreaming of a tribe I'm part of. When I wake up its depressing. OMG what a drill.

[@PtownRockhound]

Have no bad feelings because when I lay down to go to bed almost every night I'm always thinking about digging out a really cool overhang LOL

[@atuuschaaw]

I'm beginning to believe you truly are blessed! I remember those hunts when I would find 8-12 decent points and blades in a matter of hours, and I remember those 6-8 hour days when all I found was my shadow. 😉♥

[@PtownRockhound]

There are more days of walking with nothing to show for. But when a hard rain falls....it's a game changer! But there also has been times where it's rained inches, get to the creek, and find absolutely nothing!

[@jakematthewsmissouriarrowh3704]

Killer finds man. That one gravel bar did ya right. Happens every once in a while. I found 7 points on one bar before, it was probably a 20×20ft area. You just never know what's gonna turn up. Thanks for sharing and good luck out there.

[@PtownRockhound]

It makes you second guess everything you did that day. I know I searched them gravel bars fairly well but I guess the sunlight being directly down. And the way I came at the Gravel Bar had a lot to do with it because when I came back the sun was lowered to the Horizon which cast more shadows and I could see the edges better it seemed like. End up finding six whole ones and a few broken ones on that one gravel bar. It was crazy. Thanks for watching friend

[@jakematthewsmissouriarrowh3704]

Lighting sure does make a differance when it comes to gravel bar hunting. I've always liked a good overcast day for gravel bar hunting, to keep the shadows at a bare minimum

[@PtownRockhound]

Bright days do make it a bit tougher!

[@jakematthewsmissouriarrowh3704]

I'll take whatever conditions I can get really, as long a I'm out looking I'm happy. It's kinda tough right now though because the flood we had covered everything in mud and we haven't had any rain lately to wash it off. I found that harahey though, so I can't really complain.

[@PtownRockhound]

That thing is nice! Good luck

[@sharonrowland1196]

Oh ok but just thought I'd give you an idea. But I don't do it sometime's but I regret when I didn't do it last last time

[@PtownRockhound]

👍

[@thearrowheadreapers8668]

That ole sun may be hot but it sure is smiling on ya, killer finds out there 🏹

[@PtownRockhound]

This heat has been brutal! Hope relief is in sight and rain falls from the ole sky!

[@samharper4289]

Nice finds brother! You are blessed at finding nice points! I rarely ever find whole pieces amongst the rocks! Usually always broken pieces down here in Texas. Maybe just my luck? 😆

[@PtownRockhound]

I appreciate your thoughts! If the creek your hunting has more gravel than sand or mud then the possibility of finding more broken ones is higher. I like a good mixture of sand and gravel.

[@garygehegan1468]

I can't believe you didn't see the point just under your hand just before you found the crazy drill it's just under your hand as you are showing the little stubby one

[@PtownRockhound]

I believe I would have seen a point if I was that close!

[@sharonrowland1196]

Ptown could that be a Clovis point?

[@PtownRockhound]

I don't believe it's a clovis. I thought maybe a Wheeler. But it's a Dalton.

[@paleodavis8136]

Awesome hunt! I don’t know how you hunt those muddy creeks so well, you must eat lots of carrots 🥕

[@PtownRockhound]

Eyes like an eagle! 🥕 aren't my thing! Lol

[@lindaleehulsey3167]

YOU COULD BE STEPPIN ON SOME ON THAT ROCK BAR HIDDEN FROM UR 👀👁 JUST SO MANY DEPOSITED THERE TUMBLED AROUND CURRENTS WAITIN FOR U TO SAVE 🙏 YAH! HOT WAVE 🔥🥵 SPOT!

[@PtownRockhound]

Wish the heat would go away. And please let it rain!!! If not...my hunting is going to be slow, very slow! Take care Lindalee

[@sharonrowland1196]

Oh yes I totally agree with you in every way. Ptown I'll tell you what I do every time I go Arrowhead Hunting I get in the SHOWER with my clothes on and I drench myself from head to toe with COLD WATER for 45 minutes to 45 seconds and then I'm ready to go Arrowhead Hunting. You agree with doing that? Ptown this HEAT WAVE has got to let up it seriously needs to come a fully good Rain 🌧 you know? At least to give us Arrowhead Hunter's a chance to find more Arrowheads do you agree Ptown? Yeah I Hate Dry Spells Ptown. HEY Ptown have you ever heard of a CONGLOMERATE ARROWHEAD SIR? I've recently have found a CONGLOMERATE ARROWHEAD July 1st, 2022 at 11:00 AM out early my mail box and it's in perfect condition Ptown.

[@PtownRockhound]

I don't go to those measures. 😆 What ever floats your boat!

[@mccoy4realwearenotnorweeve8]

Got some points I would love to share wit you

[@PtownRockhound]

You can follow me on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. I do all my messaging through them apps. Would love to see them! There's a link to my Facebook group on here.

Are you in the palsant hope area

[@PtownRockhound]

Never heard of it.

[@jasonlowry1652]

It looks like you missed 2 points

[@PtownRockhound]

Nothing usually gets by me!

[@homesteadhunterdwd4652]

I'm a new sub, I found some in Missouri two weeks ago, don't know much about the stuff. Do you have an email that I could send you a pic and maybe you can tell me more

[@PtownRockhound]

There is a link to a Facebook group that me and a friend run that can be found on my channel. Click on that and where it's asking you to answer rules just put in there what you had just wrote now and I'll keep a lookout. Thanks

[@homesteadhunterdwd4652]

How old do you think the ones you found are?

[@PtownRockhound]

@@homesteadhunterdwd4652 artifacts can range from 8000 plus years ago to about 400 to 500 years ago. In this video, the last one is a Dalton for example. It's about 8000 years old. As to where the smaller brown point about half way in this video, is about a 1000 years old or newer.
