Hello from Austin!

Howdy all, I'm Mike, and I live in Austin Tx. I'm glad to see so many other Texas folk here. I stumbled on you guys while over at Austindiggers.com (great site!), and I love seeing what everybody has, esp. the TX stuff.

Been at this arrowhead game for just a few years now, and I have surface collected/dug/bartered my way into a pretty decent array of TX flint, I think.

I am a professional musician (upright bass), which doesn't leave as much time to go out collecting/digging as I would like. I love staring out the van window when we are criss-crossing Texas, and looking at the paradise we have here, and all the creeks and rivers where I just KNOW the hunting would be good. I wish I could stop at every one.

Looking forward to hangin with y'all.

Here is a sampling of what I have, I'll post some more later...

Welcome to the site from SW Arkansas.That broke Scotty in the pic would have been killer if whole but is still an impressive piece in the condition it's in.

Thanks for the warm welcome everybody!

I would love to have a beer & talk points. Just hit me up when the time comes...

And John, that Scottsbluff is one of my favs; nice color, good size, and great flaking.

Here is my pile of tools and brokes:
