I find it pretty hard also to do both at one time. I was really just looking for arrowheads and stumbled onto the shed. I didn't even think any in my area had shed yet.

What county are you in?

Howard county. Found it smack dab in the middle of our place. Never seen on camera before so it's a little strange. Also this would be the biggest buck we've had on our place by at least 10 inches. However there is a high fence ranch next to us and we have seen a tagged buck before and aoudad and an axis.

Sorry, I missed it. Thanks for clarifying.

Did you find those points close to each other? Or just randomly? Is there a native campground there? I'm fascinated by these things. Any tips that you could give a fellow point junkie?

These two I actually did find close together maybe within 30-40 yards of each other. I have a pretty good spot that I suspect is an old indian campground. It's about a 50 acre field along a dry creek that's produced around 50 points since I started looking there. I always find them on the higher spots where the dirt has been eroded down to where there are a lot of other rocks exposed. We have bluffs on our place and we find them on the tops of them also.

high spot above water is always productive for points

If you found 2, you can probably find 50. They usually sat in one place and made a bunch of arrow heads at once. The bad ones just got tossed to the side.

Does anyone know if Indians used fire rings? There's a ridge on our place that has about a half a dozen of these along in about a 100 yard line

Also found these in the same vicinity. The white one was about 10 feet from the "ring" pictured.
