Glad your Drought is over. I love seeing all those flashy jasper pieces. And that crock is quite the find too, I found a piece today with a handle on it, the inside has a visible handprint where the maker held it while pressing the clay on to form the handle, I don't normally keep pieces of crock but this ones it pretty cool.... Good luck on you next hunt.
Imagine how many points are still out there to find!! After thousands of years of occupation the number of artifacts left behind has to be astronomical. Every point I find I know that I saved it from being destroyed by farmers, excavators, builders, or natural breakage.. As I drive down a paved road that passes a known site, I wonder how many points were paved over.. I've found several points with pop scars from forest fires or breakage from tumbling in creeks.. I find way more brokes than whole points.. They're not heartbreakers to me.. a heartbreaker to me is a perfect point that is never found..
Theditchwalker on this day December 28 of 2013 was the day I found my very first arrowhead, so I was determined to find one today and accomplished that. lol
Wow , the drought is definitely over and you guys are finding some killers !!! Those creeks treat them good, must be sandy ! Thanks for taking us along !
Love that old churn! As always nice points! I'm looking forward to seeing some More of those big Benton blades this new year! Good luck walking those creeks and ditches!
Congrats on those points. That red jasper is some beautiful material and it really sticks out in those creeks. Send some rain up to MO so I can start hunting again.
glad creek season is kicking again!! we will be pulling those southeast creek killers this winter!! I have been going through withdrawals it's been so dry around here. killer jasper point and would have been a hefty benton blade! hope to see more soon!
You been missed, brother. So glad you're back; churn was flat out awesome, can't believe it wasn't broken. like always, looking forward to your next video.
Yeah I'm seeing that.,seems like evry force possible has been working against my next vid....hopefully no more droughts...Thanks Chris for being a die hard follower....means a lot
I also live in northern Mississippi Lafayette county actually do y'all ever hunt around Lafayette because I've had no luck in my county although lots of stuff has come out of it
Oh really.,I saw lots of good ditches while we were traveling through there working.... Mostly in the eastern part of Lafayette county....should be some good hunting over there....lot of Daltons in the area....
IDK if it would be useful for what you're doing but I used to live in the fl keys and to hunt for good dive sites and lobster hunting spots I cut the bottom out of a five gallon bucket, left a half inch rim of the bottom, and glued in a clear piece of plexiglass. If the water is choppy or glaring, or maybe in your case a little too deep and muddy, you can put the bottom of the bucket in the water and look through. You could check out some of those deeper pockets?
Yes.,I have used one in the past....now that I'm over 40.,I tend to wanna shy away from bending over for hours lol....Seriously got a few spots I'm gonna have to dust the ole clear bottom bucket off on....:)...thanks and Goodluck
I would be dancing if I found a churn like that ! I don't know a lot about them either but I like it! I pick up things that catch my eye. Sure wish we had creeks like that around here!
I have just found your channel here on youtube and am enjoying watching you look for arrow heads. I just saw the churn you found. I believe that says Smithville, Miss. I have a Davis piece and I live in Smithiville, MS. :) I also loved to look for arrow heads when I was a kid. :)
Kewl man....Hunting points has been a passion of mine since I was 10....42 now...took me a long time to find what I'm finding now...love my churn....:)
Davis Brothers operated in Smithville from the 1920s until 1954. The churn is worth $100 +/-. One exactly like it sold on ebay last year for $65. It had a broken handle, but included the top.
I love watching your videos man glad the drought is over for u mine still continues deer season is killing me but it ends in 12 days and it's on congrats my friend
Great to see you back on, good job spotting that pickwick! That thing was blending in well with the clay. Happy New Year brother! Hope it's a good one for ya👍
Don't know much about churns,although I do recall watching my grandparents use one to make butter.They do have a top which has a center hole to receive a paddle to actually churn with,which obviously is mia,on that one,but still a nice old piece of history.I do know one thing,,,y'all wuz churning out some nice artifacts.:>) Glad to see ya back at it.
Thanks Flint.,after research.,it is a pretty rare 4 gallon churn that was made about 30 miles away.....man.,I'm so glad to be back...been a tough drought.,among other things lol....Cheers
Can u give me advice on how to dig for points? I have found 13 arrowheads in two bars on the same creek so i thought it might be a good spot to dig. It is really rocky not sand though
Drew Sanders Try to locate the source and dig there. For the gravel use your boot to kick the waters edge. Or a screen sifter on a frame. There is a ton of youtube videos using all these methods.
I would tunnel into the bars your finding points on...use the water to tear apart the bar and clean out with shovel...or dig in the water in front of the bars...points usually hang up in front of the bars.,sometimes congregating in one spot....Goodluck
How yall doin I live hear in central Ms. around Pickens, Canton off of 55 now I have several creek here but they are muddy I had one place that I thought was a mound started to dig it but my old ass gave out but anyway their is a place where this creek flattens out and get shallow are their any indicator that would tell me it would be worth a look as I have surface hunted all my life but never did what yall are doing
well your drought ended with a bang, bunch of nice points, that churn is a stellar find, ya just don't find things like that out in the woods hardly any more, good to see you back, best wishes in 2017
I would say that POT on the end of this video is big $$. Hey it could have been a pot filled with coins lost. I would check the stream with a detector. Great points congrats.
I dont have but about 12 or so whole points if I sent you pics of them could you identify them for me??? I have a book but it's hard for me to do and I haven't been really hunting but a few months so I'm still learning. thanks and best wishes to you
Theditchwalker how can I send you pics? I numbered them and measured to make it easy for you bro, and I would love to takw u with me to my best creek in union County just to learn!
awesome finds bro, im glad we finally getting some rain too, im from Union County I would love to get up with you and go on a hunt i got a couple good creeks and I have several artifacts myself, keep it up your awesome
my boyfriend hunts arrow heads we live in Illinois is there ne tips to help him out he has some nice points but has hard time finding places to hunt them
Heck yeah bud! Glad to see you back in the ditches! Sweet finds as always! Very cool churn! Best of luck in 2017 and look forward to checking out your finds!
Amazing how you can just find these and pick them up from everywhere. How old are they in general if its possible to tell? Any idea why so many ended up in the creeks? I would guess a arrowhead was quite a precious item from and indian or maybe not? Love your videos just found out about it. Thought I was hearing Johnny Cash talking the first time I saw your video😅. Greetings from Norway
Thanks Anders...the finds in this vid are from the middle archaic period..that's 4 to 6,000 before present or 2 to 4,000 BC....the landscape is dramatically different than what we see today...streams and creeks have changed courses.,floods etc...the archaic period was a much wetter climate than what we see today..streams and rivers have eroded into these ancient settlements and deposited the artifacts in the stream beds...thanks for your comment...cheers
Theditchwalker Thats just incredable. Thats some amazing history you are unearthing and holding in your hand. Makes you think. What was the name of the individ who made it, how did he live, how did he loose it and not the least did he catch anything with it! Are you allowed to keep them or are they proteced by law? Thank you for your reply. BR
@@mrholm123 - They are allowed to keep everything they find. There are no laws against it. There are so many of these artifacts in every state where an indigenous tribe was located. I just noticed your questions and comments are 2 years old! Lol! Oh well, I hope you see this anyway!
How do you spot these things?! The only thing I've ever found was the broken tip of a quartz spear and you're finding these crazy points haha I live in a very small part of Virginia and we don't have these little creeks or nothing like it
Theditchwalker well we have roadside ditches and little streams and shit but nothing like that. You know, with the bedrock exposed or the rocks on the bottom. Where I live is pretty boring and when your hobby is metal detecting bottle hunting and arrowhead hunting you wish you had some nice creeks or rivers to look in
I will be back in full force....Thanks for your support...A number of things have kept me from uploading...busted camera.,lost clips.,busted hunts.,the list goes on..not to mention drought.....I'm back...thanks for your patience
hey, I am from Mississippi and I love to hunt for arrowheads! I was wondering if you could let me know the names of the creeks or towns your hunting around? Thanks!
Glad your Drought is over. I love seeing all those flashy jasper pieces. And that crock is quite the find too, I found a piece today with a handle on it, the inside has a visible handprint where the maker held it while pressing the clay on to form the handle, I don't normally keep pieces of crock but this ones it pretty cool....

Nice Finds!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Thanks Doug I appreciate it

Thank you very much for the kind words....Cheers
Wow!
Thank you for sharing the experience. Love the colors of the stuff you find.
Imagine how many points are still out there to find!! After thousands of years of occupation the number of artifacts left behind has to be astronomical.

Very cool man keep it up. Me and my daughter went out today and found a little bird point complete.
Thanks Kevin.,how cool....make those memories my friend....Best of luck
Theditchwalker on this day December 28 of 2013 was the day I found my very first arrowhead, so I was determined to find one today and accomplished that. lol
Wow , the drought is definitely over and you guys are finding some killers !!! Those creeks treat them good, must be sandy ! Thanks for taking us along !
Thanks Flintman....Yes.,our creeks are sand and clay and do not beat the artifacts up.....It's hard to beat North Mississippi creek hunting.....Cheers
wow man can't wait till I find stuff like that stay warm man
bromandude man

is there anywhere in Florida that's good for arrow heads, I'm into flintnaping but would love to find one made by the masters of the craft
What a crock!
