This Brewerton point is my favorite. Why? A friend of mine that got me into collecting arrowheads. Told me if you see flint chips on the ground look around in that area because you might find an arrowhead. Well he was right! As I was walking along this dirt path in the woods. I’ve walked many times before. Going into my bow hunting spot. I noticed some Black flint chips on the trail. So I took my buddies advice and started looking hard. And I couldn’t believe my eyes. Right smack in the middle of that dirt path was. Black Brewerton point. Laying on its side. I reached down and picked it up with a big smile was on my face. I had just found my first whole arrow head. Less than 100 yards. From where I killed my first deer with a bow and arrow. It was pretty cool when I thought about it. I was hunting in the same area someone else was hunting hundreds of years ago. Well that’s my story that on my favorite arrow head. Are you going to share yours with us now underminer?;)

Are you gonna post your story of your favorite arrowhead underminer? I’d like to hear it.👍
Nah, I only ever found this bootleg looking thing that probably isn't even real...

I was looking for arrow heads non stop for like 3 months and fianlly I see this huge thing sticking out of the sand by the shore. It looked to be a broken spear point of some kind. I still don't know much about it only that obsidian wasn't used by any natives on the North East where I live so it might not even be a real artifact but something made later and tossed into the sea by someone fairly recently. In this same time and place however I also found this curious carved stone with a hole in the middle which I do believe is a native artifact of some kind...

Native American artifacts are far from my area of expertise so I don't know anything else to add about these finds.

Very cool finds. That was a huge point! You have to wonder what were they hunting with that large point. Thanks for sharing your finds with us. Good luck hunting.

Do you know what the stone with the hole in it is called?
