I struck out yesterday in the snow to look for an antler after work and got into a field and saw where several fence rows had been bulldozed out. I couldnt get to them fast enough, knowing that this ground had never been disturbed before I figured there had to be something in it. I found a pocket full of broken tips/bases/mid sections a full chipped ax/chopper, a crude drill and some kind of really cool stemmed point that at first I thought might be a Benton but after studying it Im kinda lost as to what it might be so all my good rock hound buddies here........HELP! Ive never found a whole benton so it would have been cool but this one just doesnt look right. It also has a few fresh tip dings that Im sure the dozer did but im happy to have saved it!!

Howdy catchdawg, ya know Adena did cross my mind as well, never thought about the ugly one being anything other than a drill but I just looked up bradley spike and you could be on to something.Thanks for the look and reply.
