    Re: speechless

    Really sweet find trevmma, it is a bannerstone with only the hole un-finished. Were it me I would spend a lot of time hunting there. Once it is plowed, I would doing a rain dance ever day.

    When I lived in Missouri, as soon as I knew we were in for a good rain I put on my rain coat and I headed for my favorite fields along the streams. I had a nice little valley with hills on 3 sides and a stone stream on the forth that always produced.

    My hunting partner yesterday found a Clovis. Complete, great flutes, etc.

    We have a tradition on the river, when someone spots a point..let someone else pick it up for you. That way both parties get to experience a bit of the joy. I picked up his Clovis. It was his first ever. To put things into perspection...your bannerstone is much more rare than his Clovis.

    Re: speechless

    i found one but the half moon shaped one, the 2 time looking for arrowheads, but i thought it was a broken coffe mug handle so i tossed it. i walk from 6.30 in the mourning till about 7 at night when fields are plowed, but this was a fluke i was in the field 15 minutes unplowed full of sunflowers.
