Is that a Thebes point? Beautiful. I knew an old Indiana collector who told me forty years ago there is nothing like finding that Indiana slate. He had a passion for it and knew all the best spots.
I've got to say I enjoy watching your posts. I've only been looking myself for 3 yrs and don't know a lot about it but this old dog can still hunt. Keep posting.
Thank you so much.. I have not had a hunt like that in years clean up video coming tonight I'm back here where I left yesterday so hopefully I will have more luck Godbless and hope you and all your guy's family are doing well. Jeff
Me and my brother, while we haven't made any videos yet, just recently came across some of your videos. We thought it was interesting so we got permission to hunt a couple property's, including two not a minute away from our place. We found a celt, a ton of scapers, and 23 arrowheads, barely none are broke. We have been doing really good, we have been blessed to have been finding great stuff. Thank you for getting us on the hunt with them, I appreciate it. Love your videos and keep up the great work, we hunt in northern Kentucky and have tons of property to walk if you are ever up this way.
Thank you so much watching and commenting on my channel and so glad you guys are finding some killers keep up the good work and good care of yourself.. Jeff
Im glad that you post the broken pieces, too, because it helps me learn what to watch out for. I dont know how one can tell the difference between any broken stone relics and just a regular rock. I need to study up on it.
its good to show the good with the bad honestly cause if you only show the smokers then people think you planted them so. dont feel bad about showing brokes too. congradulations arrowhead man! that is a beautiful find!!!! when he plws again keep an eye out and you can glue the back together.
Hey Jeff, gotta say I love your videos! I've just recently discovered your channel. I've hunted arrowheads since I was a kid in central Indiana myself and apparently closer to you than I realized. You mentioned in this video you were just south of Tippecanoe co. I've hunted in Tippecanoe co. my whole life. I'm subscribed to a few different channels for arrowhead hunting and happened to stumble onto yours. I'm super happy I did, it makes it that much better when you can really relate to the kind of videos you watch! Anyway, thanks for the entertainment and huge CONGRATULATIONS on the the Thebes and the Dovetail, both are super nice finds!
I just found you and subbed! I am from orwgon i luved in jasper IN for years and went to school my family is from washington county. I love watching your vids seeing home makes me want to come back.
CONGRATS!!!! thats a stellar day. You found two of points that have alluded me my whole hunting career wife has found broken thebes but no whole ones. Super day and nice honey hole much luck on next two sites.
Sweet baby Jesus. What a freaking day. Well done and congratulations bubba. That dove takes the cake. That material is epic. Thank you very much for sharing. There should be many more to come. Looking forward to it.
Heck of a haul jeff, looks like you've found a great site. Congratulations on the 2 killers, so happy for you. I'm really looking forward to your next hunt in that field for sure. Thanks for sharing.
Nice thebes! Thats a great find. I found one last weekend that was 2 1/4 inches long that was super serrated, wow cant believe u found thebes and dovetail in one day super great finds all together!!!👍👍👍
I could not believe it either I think because it does not get hunted and was just my luck day that just don't very often Thanks for watching and commenting on my channel and as always keep on rockin jtr Jeff Ricketts arrowhead man.com
Thank you so much you know I got blisters on my feet it was hard dry Clumpy walking. I hope I can still go out tomorrow put Band-Aids on them if I haft to lol Thanks Jeff
Straight up killer hunt Jeff. That Thebes is awesome and so is the Dovetail. The second piece you picked up the gray one looked like the end of flutes on both sides. I think the native people broke the Celt. Stay safe brother and good luck not that you need it.
Just curious, without being too specific, what general area are you hunting? I haven't hunted arrowheads since I was a kid but still fascinated by them. I'm in East-central IN. Greenfield/Knightstown area. Your fields look a little more rolly than the ones near me.
All the artifacts were beautiful my friend. but that gray is beautiful and the 13:40 minute too. What's that name? Congratulations my friend. Wow Coyote.
That's a Dovetail made of Indiana green attica chert early archaic knife a stellar find I'm very blessed. Thank you for watching and commenting on my channel and hope you and your family are doing well Godbless Jeff
Man this video of yours makes me smile from ear to ear when you talk about the haters and when u say ur in freaking fire that's awesome man I've watched this video so much haha from a fellow hoosier good luck out there
Great finds.Just a suggestion,If you will film the points in the sunlight your viewers can see so much better.Some of the shots are in the sun and shows great detail 😊
I've found 4 Thebes in Starke county in 40 years, 4 Clovis bottoms ,1 whole Clovis between Knox and Bass Lake. Where I found my first Thebes my youngest brother found a 8 inche Hardin. Looks good there too!!
I see that I'm gone back may just be a leaf but your right sure looks like one and when I get excited God only knows what I can miss .Thank you for watching and commenting on my channel hope you and your family are doing well and as always keep on rockin jtr Jeff Ricketts arrowhead man.com
You are on fire bro....for sure!!! And the way I look at it, if it’s even remotely close to a creek and they didn’t have to worry about flooding.....they were probably there at some point!! So it’s always worth the shot to check it out....as you found out!!! Huge congrats my friend and thanks for the awesome kill shot...got me right in the eye!!!! Lol!! 👍
I found a creek that floods but in it I found mako shark teeth, worked graphite and even a hopewell coated in gold pyrite dust and in a gully downstream on the ridge I found hardin big sandy st Charles Hopewell types
ALWAYS TRUST THEM FEELINGS!!! Never know unless you go !! I've found some of my best pieces trusting them feelings. Only 3 clovis, most people don't find one. Great field and great finds. Better than any thebes I've ever found. Good Luck!
It won't fit 45 plus years of collecting plus grandfather's collection and Dads I'm blessed..And very thank full .Hope you and your family are doing well Godbless and good luck on your next adventure and as always keep on rockin jtr Jeff Ricketts arrowhead man.com
A new site is one of the best things to come around when you do what we do. I kinda feel sorry for folks who don’t know the joy of walking along in a place where at any time you could walk up on something that gives you such an overload of happiness and excitement. If it’s not completely miserable weather I walk 5 to 7 miles every day and never doubt that I’m only steps from walking up on the find of a lifetime. I started chasing rocks in 1980 and still get the same thrill when I find a run of the mill stemmed point or rough Madison. Like I said, I feel sorry for folks who don’t know what that feels like. I also feel sorry for people who try to ruin other people’s days by saying negative things that serve no purpose whatsoever, they’re sort of like biting insects, you appreciate the days that they all got eaten by birds. Walk On
Thank you so much for your comment I really enjoyed reading and feel the same way. I hope you and your family are doing well Godbless and as always keep on rockin jtr Jeff Ricketts arrowhead man.com
Maybe I should grab my walking stick and come check out the prairie land with you. That's a smoking Thebes. You got some killers lately. The Dove is pretty sweet to. I had things to do this weekend. Got here by the house this afternoon. Didn't find anything. Don't know if I'll make it out tomarow. Thanks for sharing. Them was awesome.
You have to look like a theif, carting all that loot home on your scooter lol! So glad you're having a great year of hunting! Really enjoy seeing what you're finding! 😀 Good luck!!
scooter ? moped ? those are the best, you can take them about anywhere , I have one I might go back to a site I found 20 years ago where I found my first arrowhead by scooping out a mud puddle for my dog to drink out of , I never over hunted it and the creek below upstream yielded mako shark teeth
Dam buddy! Your gonna remember that day for a long time . That is one hell of an archaic site . I'd walk the soles off my boots out there . The Thebes would have me high for a month .
That's a Dovetail made of attica chert or Indiana green. Early Archaic artifact not bragging but a stellar find .I'm very thank full.Thank you for watching and commenting on my channel good luck to you on your next adventure and hope you and your family are doing well Godbless. Jeff
6 hours to walk all that LMAO your walking way to fast, It takes me 6 hours to walk 1 mile of a creek. Im in southern Indiana and been walking a creek for 1 year and 4 months now. I have found some amazing pieces and found my first turkey tail a few weeks ago 4" long. Found a 4-1/4" long dove and a small dove that I cant find any imfo on what type of material it is. It is yellow, green with brown and red strips. A very beautiful piece. Love your finds Congrats Would love to send you pic of my finds so far.
Like the videos but stop giving the haters the time just don't say anything to them because it gets old every time you say it when you find something nice keep up the good work
Wat yal call bird points in the Midwest are a lot different in western nc. Heck most those small one were atl atl throwing points. The bird points we find are way smaller than a dime. Yall got some big birds out there 👍😂
You know it's strange how many that people still find but then again these were the quintessential tools for hundreds and hundreds of years of even into the thousands if we think about how many items that we own today far as sockets and wrenches and drill bits and you name it I literally have thousands and thousands of pieces that will surely be around much much longer than I will i'm sure the people of yesteryear were the same way each man might have had up to five or even 10,000 arrowheads and stone tools a piece
Nice finds....but I'm pretty certain the Thebes and dove tail were made by rocks in the head...ask him...i' m sure he will lay claim to them 😂😂 Banner day my friend! One thing that cracked me up, is when you mentioned you've only found 3 Clovis in your life...for some reason, I don't feel sorry for you..lol
that guy blocked me because I said to a contest winner to delete her personal info, then he snidely remarked he posts his , but he never did, so Action Jackson told me his name and I went back and posted it then he got butthurt and blocked me , I should call DNR and have him arrested for digging illegally trespassing et al , David Christian Andersen I think is Rocks Cousteau real name if I find out his address DNR going to get a call and he will go to prison
Indiana is an odd place, I found mako shark teeth a piece of worked graphite a Hopewell coated in gold pyrite dust a mineralized raccoon ? tooth slate prnt.sc/mmuhyt prnt.sc/mmuxzz a cache of Adena points a little Dalton a Hardin in a 4x4 track a civil war US oval badge with leather, a few turkey bone awls a round rock ball with a raised ridge burnt food bones pottery . I like that Thebes one of my fav types along with the big turkey tails . i'm subscribe now
never see your profile or face on your videos we're all wondering is your Noggin shaped like an arrowhead? Arrowhead man We all would still love you anyways man
Nice finds buddy I love coming across those feels nobody’s thought to check especially the creeks the fields drain off into around them
Is that a Thebes point? Beautiful. I knew an old Indiana collector who told me forty years ago there is nothing like finding that Indiana slate. He had a passion for it and knew all the best spots.
Congrats Bro! Very happy for your finds, and thanks for sharing...awesome!

At 19:25 that's a MacCorkle, or at least that's what they are called in Ohio. It is from 9000 to 8500 years before present, so it is old.
Dont pay attention to any haters Jeffro, anyone that hunts can tell those points arent “Planted”. Hell of a day man your killin it.......
