Hello, well we didn't get the rain they were predicting (they were talking possible flash flooding, i was kinda hoping for it to clear some of the top soil) but we still got some thankfully.
I got out today (Feb 28th) anyway to give it a shot & was lucky to spot the Triangle BIRD?(NO INSITU pic) & REALLY lucky as I was heading back that I walked up on the Bird point in-situ! 😎

Thanks for looking,
😎

True arrowhead on the second for sure, bird point is a bit misleading. I’d say #2 is a scallorn/sorters bluff/ whatever regional equivalent from your area

Thanks,I just called it a bird cause im very bad at IDing Arrowheads! 😄I think ive found one similar (scallorn) I think that's what everyone agreed on?

If you’re down in the se corner like I am I’d say sorters bluff, and a jug hill on the triangle, but that’s kind of splitting hairs… same shape just different name depending on location found.

The reason I mentioned true arrowhead vs bird point is because those points could bring down much larger game than birds. The size has more to do with allowing an arrow to fly. Imagine strapping 6” point to the end of an arrow, wouldn’t get far.

Like seeing Kansas stuff though. Very cool.
 

Bird point is what we called them old school. Yours look just like what I find in the PNW for the more recent historic points. You don't need a type name at all.
