what is the trick to finding them? Have walked many a shorelines and not a one have I found.

location...shorelines are rarely a good place...they weren't shorelines in those days. They made their arrow heads close to the source. Find chert and flint hills. There you will find them...well usually more "almost" arrowheads. The ones that made good arrowheads were used and lost in random places.

I have had my best luck after a rain in a plowed field.

Most places have been picked over so much that the best time to look is only during extreme drought and low water. And there's a knack, that I don't have. I can search for hours and never come across one, let my wife out of the boat to tinkle behind a tree and she will come back with 3. There is a lot of money laying out there, some are extremely valuable. I have a buddy in his 60's that recently retired and is shopping his collection around. He's already turned down over $100,000 twice. The ones I have are worth about a nickel.

A buddy of mine hunts for them all the time, he says the trick is to stick to creeks and specifically creek junctions. THen just get your hands dirty.

This guy has tons of arrowheads, and honestly a lot of them are things I would just pass by and not think twice about but he picks them up and you can definitely tell it was an arrowhead. In other words, not all of his look like the perfect arrowhead we all have as the picture in our head.

Should anyone get the chance a root plowed mesquite field near what is or used to be a creek..

Go to Brazos river below PK. Walk on the gravel bars and search. Might be really good after they release all this water because all the vegetation will be removed. My buddy finds arrowheads and tools down there.

I used to find a lot of arrowheads at my Uncles ranch in Boerne. As I got older, I learned it was an old camping site for some tribe.

Arrow Head Stadium might have some

My grandparents walked the Sulphur river after big rains back in the '60s. They had two cigar boxes full of all kinds. Had a peace pipe bowl and a stem that had broken in two pieces made of stone. And a lot of beads. They sold them at some point.

Arrowhead hunters - or those who have an eye for finding these things are probably badazzes at the Spot the Critter game. My dad could be walking down a trail and spot an arrowhead from 20ft away. The only one I've found was from blindly reaching under water looking for a rock to skip down the Guadalupe. I pulled it up and recognized it immediately but probably would have never seen it if I was walking along.

I know a guy that can fall in a mud hole and find them, His mom has a collection in the Smithsonian, I cant find one to save my life.

My 13 yr old daughter has the eye. She has found a bunch

this

I�d love to find them around here.

I am only 15 miles from Dover, TN. Dover chert was highly prized by ancient Indians. It has been found as far away as Ohio in arrowheads and tools. The quarries are protected now. Friend of mine has a good collection. He walks behind tractors plowing fields.
