  • In this video, I spend an entire day hunting the "Field of Dreams" looking for smokers and bison skulls. At the last moment the good Lord smiled down on me and I walked up on a potential once-in-a-lifetime find. I'll probably never top this find and I'm okay with the thought of that.
    Also, in this video I mention early on about an area where in one of my previous videos I found what may possibly be a Greenbrier. To watch that video, click the link below.

      Leland, sorry the surprise wasn't as much as a surprise for you as everyone else since I asked you to help me ID it before the video went out. I want to thank you again for all the help you gave me and all the people you reached out to in order to further confirm the type/material. You've been an enormous help and great encouragement to me. When I hear someone like you is impressed with one of my finds it is humbling. Thanks again buddy!

    You were a lucky man that day. That point at the end of the day is I believe a agate basin of the late Paleo period and is a beautiful point. It makes me remember my first Paleo piece, I was working on a farm and the owner cleared some new fields and I decided to hunt them for artifacts and I walked up on a Clovis site. I found 3 nice beautiful Clovis points and several Clovis knives and tools. I have never found anything like that since and I doubt I ever will. 3 Clovis points and a pocket full of Clovis tools in one day will be hard to beat. I still have every piece in one frame telling where I found them. I have been offered several thousand dollars for the frame but keep turning it down. No amount of money is worth the best hunt I have ever had

Whenever I found an artifact I bowed in the four directions and in honor to the ones who created these works of art I would say, "Where your thumb once was, mine is now ".
    That Agate Basin Paleo point brought me to my knees as well!! Congrats man! It was too bad that old village site we searched at was used as a motor x track. I considered finding those artifacts as saving them from destruction. To the river my friend and happy hunting. 😀👍👣🛶🧭

Wherever you are I can almost guarantee you there is some kind of adventuring/treasure hunting that you could find to get into. Artifacts, fossils, bottles, marbles, magnet fishing, metal detecting, antiquing, etc....there's bound to be something for you out there! Oddly enough, until about 3 years ago when I started arrowhead hunting I also thought that there wasn't anything like this in my area. I always wanted to find arrowheads but I never bothered looking because I just assumed there wasn't much of it where I live...but I was very wrong.

    13:44 really freaking cool, Garys and very similar varieties are very common types to find in OK. I found a site next to a creek somewhere in Central OK and noticed that a large majority of the pieces were made with percussion mainly, and this one that you picked up looks exactly like the ones I've been pulling out of the Gary site. Don't know why they stuck to mainly using percussion to make them, but it leads to quite a hunky piece that has this odd yet prominent midline where the flakes meet in the center.

That really is one killer agate basin, and I feel fortunate to have been able to hold it. Imagine the story behind that piece. For 11,500 years that thing faired the elements and survived tumbling, possibly for many many miles down the river. all to end up in your hands at the end of the day, what a feeling. Awesome stuff.

I watched that video a while back. Glad we got to hunt today, wish everyone would have found more stuff but I'm glad that you walked away with a couple of decent finds. But it was just fun hunting either way. And it was great to share the agate basin with you at the show today. If only it could tell us the things it's seen in all that time. Let's hunt again soon!
