My first guess is a Turkeytail-Harrison

[Dirt fishing Wolf]

Found this one this morning. Looking at the base with my loop its not broken. Picture in the overstreet guide looks just like this one.

Out of my area but looks like a nice one, congrats

I agree. That is a nice find.

Its a beauty!

Nice little point but I'm gonna say no on it being a turkey. Close ups of the flakin and side shots would help.

I agree with "fishstick" it's very small for a Fulton or Harrison Turkeytail and the napping is vague but on the other hand "books" often only show classic examples while the fact is many variants of a particular type or of a particular piece of material may not look "textbook" accurate. Since it was found in Illinois, I'd guess small Turkeytail too that didn't quite flake the way the knapper wanted it to around the base. Nice find Dirt Fisher!

Had to wait for day light to get a better picture hope this helps

Thanks MT, I hope to get better at identifying points.
