    Hey guys - this is my first ever find. It was my second time ever going out. Found this little guy sitting on top of a gravel bar in a creek bend. Very curious what you guys and gals think. It looks similar to PeeDee/Uwharrie but I’m not sure as I’m brand new to this. Any info/advice is much appreciated! Happy hunting!

      Thanks for the response. Lancaster isn’t too far. I’ll check those types out. Anyway you can tell by the picture what type of material this is made from? It’s almost waxy looking. This point is a tad over 3/4 an inch too

    Looks like a Pee Dee point to me and a nice one. Great find and a true arrowhead as in not a knife!

      Those are some great insitu photos!!! I live in the Triad area about a hour and a half up I 85 from Charlotte. You should try panning that creek. Odds are you’ll find some color and maybe even a picker!

    Used to live right next to you (Huntersville). That area is so developed and dense with population now I am amazed you found anything but super excited for you!

    Great find, and welcome to the forum!
