well this is a continuation of this post http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,47543.0.html while gribnitz and myself were out hunting grib.found soemthing in a root wad and could not get it out....today me and renegade_7 went to the woods where the bullets were found but i wasnt finding anything. So i had some time to kill so i went back to where we found the bullets last time to see if i could find somemore bullets but it i got sidetracked when i remembered where the mysterious object was and after a little finessing here is a few pics of the item still in a root when ever i get it out ill post an update but to me it looks like part of a bridal for a horse and sorry for the bad pics ill post better ones later

Re: cool old find..

Cool find bcs!I know you don't want to but probably the only way to free that is to start whittling away at that root.Take care.DM

Found this one in McAdenville NC. I left the root on mine, I think it looks cool like it is.
