My Dad and I used to go out with his metal detector and we had a lot of fun. He died in 1996 and I will be 75 years old in September and can't get out in the woods any more due to my health so I was very happy to find your channel and remember what fun it is to be out there either using your metal detector or looking for Native American artifacts.We looked for them also. I subscribed and thumbs up. Steve

This is something I’ve always loved doing. Exploring creeks to their source, arrowhead hunting, etc. Now I’m too old and disabled to do much, but every once in a while, my body will cooperated with me and off I’ll go! Good video. Look forward to the next one.

Next upload is tomorrow around 8 AM eastern time.

My step brother n I were in NM caving near our house. We got in about 15ft when we heard an eerie screech much deeper in. We left immediately but searched the surrounding area. We found lots of deer sized bones and scat! That's when we left and never returned. After several days of pondering, we figured we found a mountain lion den. Scared us both for weeks

[@ZachByrd]

That's wild for sure

[@elliotschneider5643]

I used to spend hours in the creek on my parents farm. Found all kinds of cool stuff.

[@chrisshinlever2440]

Never went looking for arrow heads like this i usually walk the tn river when its down ,and find them like crazy especially after a couple good rains ,on time I found a good one and went to the water to wash it and found my biggest spear point in 3 inches of water just waiting on me ,man its a adrenaline rush for sure

[@davidharris4030]

I assume you know you could be gambling on picking up stuff on the Tennessee river. I know I live close to Chickamauga and I love hunting but found out it was illegal. I hunted for years on private property but scared to hunt on the Tennessee. I see people do it all the time but I would be the one they would make a example out of.

[@Rehsmj2012]

Holy crap Zach, that tip is awesome.

Congratulations on your civil war relic. If you found that in that Creek then you will defently find other civil war relics. Great video my friend. An that cave will produce some great relics as well. Can't wait to see part two an what you find. Good luck on your next adventure in the creek an the caves. As always safe and happy/hunting.😁👍👍

[@ZachByrd]

Thanks so much!

[@u.s.militia7682]

Carry a little army shovel with ya. Also go to your local printing office and buy you a few USGS maps. They’ll show you were every old structure used to be and where springs and caves are too. Be sure to get the key to the map as well. Try to get them waterproofed if you can. I’m gonna sift through the creeks and rivers of Saltville Virginia this spring. It’s where two Civil War battles were fought. Can hardly wait. 🇺🇸

[@stevetanner3953]

Aquachigger would love that one

[@HeartbreakerRelics]

What an awesome spot! Everything that comes out of that spot is cool and interesting! The cave itself is just beautiful but the scabbard tip is incredible! Can't wait for the next trip.

Wow brother what a super cool find I hope one day you do get a chance to go caving and get to see what's off in there there is a spring that I found in one of the small towns where I grew up Walker county Alabama where it's like they mined out the spring back in the day because there was coal in it

When you sift again go down stream from where you found the scabbard tip. Natives would source their water after it had time to filter through the sand and gravel. Just a tip from a dude who's done this for 56years.👍☮️

As a non American can you tell me why arrow heads are found in streams? Thankyou.

[@byrdsdoityourselfgarage7330]

Some are from upstream, washed in, but most are from hunting in the area. Most fowl, and deer and other animals hang out by the water, and especially easy to shoot when they go to take a drink. If the arrow doesn't hit its target, it ends up either floating away, or the head comes off, and is lost for hundreds, or thousands of years until mr. Byrd comes along :) might be a cousin of mine? Idk
