Title: Found my first arrowhead.

Lol. At first I thought it was just a leaf. It sure did look like a stone point though. I gave it a light brush with the toe of my work boot. It was a stone point. One of mine I had lost off a arrow. Still looking pretty good

Not the first I made. Although one of my early ones. THE FIRST ARROWHEAD I EVER FOUND. I've been looking for arrowheads all my life on my farms. Kinda funny the first one I find is one of mine.

Nice find!  Neat that it was one you made!  Nice point, too!  I have probably not found hundreds that were partially hidden or at the wrong angle!  Haven't found any, as a matter of fact!  Guess it is a matter of being in the right place at the right time!

That's another funny thing Jerry. My cousin who has found a bunch of em told me. Don't look for a arrowhead. Look for a edge or a base. Maybe the tip of a point. You never find them laying there flat looking like a arrowhead. That's what was going through my mind as I brushed it with the toe of my work boot. It looked like a arrowhead.lol
