The images may not be the best since I took them with my phone, but these are the arrowheads I have found myself. I don't know much about age or specifics, just that I enjoy hunting them. I saw some other photos people had put up and felt like sharing mine. These were found in Virginia.

Welcome, thanks for the post and photo's, you have some very nice and interesting artifacts. I agree with Theviking, they look like the points and materials my father found when growing up in Grayson Co, southwest VA
Thanks everyone. I have about 70 more that my father found when we were hunting together. They are from SWVA, I lived close to Bristol, Virginia and all were from that location. I mainly hunted plowed fields and some as you can see have been broken from plows.
VERY nice collection! And WELCOME! I'm jealous of the non-quartz points y'all find in SWVA. (although I still love my quartz ) Do you still hunt for them? Yakker
I would/will be once I start getting permission here in Alabama. I'm in a really good area where I'm at now. There is an Archaeological site called moundville 13 miles away, it has 12 mounds I believe with one mound as high as 50 ft. The mounds are from the Mississippian Indian group, so I figure they have probably been all around in these parts. I would like to find some quartz ones myself. I did manage to find a milky quartz point with a hint of purple in va, it was small but in perfect condition.
@ Joe...most finds from the Mississippian period will be flint. If you are looking for quartz you better find a Archaic site. Im not far from the area you are living in. Send me a PM if you want to know of some areas.
