Anyone have any input on this stemmed point? I found it in a farm field in Clear Lake, Ia. Hope the pics are OK. Thanks

Blurry but the outline of it looks really nice.

I don't know the type but man what a bish tang it's got. You might look for a weak shouldered type and that one might have an unusually long stem. Down here it looks early archaic to me. Nice artifact!

Found a pic in a book. Closely resembles a Rochester Point. Could be late Paleo but good evidence is lacking.

Looks Paleoish to me. Get an outside photo if you can, and thinness, base, and flaking would be ideal.
